Washing machine pulling thousands of RPM

[DEMIART77]

please help,how to wire it up straight to the mains ????

[dnbrhythm]

sounds like a..... ah yes a motor

[animall98]

il never get those 1.06 minutes back

[andydiscovery]

@animall98 Sorry you didn't like the video, I've contacted the laws of physics and they've offered you a time refund, but you have to spend it wisely - I suggest putting it towards spelling lessons

[Logo3801]

@andydiscovery can i buy it off you? how much?

[datamann10]

@andydiscovery

ooooOOOOooOOooOOo U powned him

[Moneymax3001]

You have to hook all the colored wires to the Black (hot) of the 120volt and then switch all the white wires to the other leg of the power outlet... if you should have any of the following... I can not be held responsible 4... changing color of your skin.. Afro of hair... Balls fall off... Tits nipples turn inward... eyes change color and will no longer respond to light... toes on left foot decide to cramp and crinkle... Toes on right foot no longer visible... premature aging.. premature birth..

[andydiscovery]

@Moneymax3001 or 240v if you live outside the USA lol

[KironStrife]

SOunds like the moter in a jet engine starter.

[TheKaos90]

Imagine that shit on a bike

[WARFOX101]

BOOM!

[mace1337]

nothing special.....

[andydiscovery]

@mace1337 It's more special than your ZERO uploads numb nuts lol

[sonus89]

@andydiscovery This is really special, because I have whirpool washing machine electric motor and can not control it, because there are 5 white wires, and 2 green-yellow.. I have no idea how to connect them. I'm sure that the two green-yellow wires are ground, because they are connected to the motor house. What about the 5 white wires? I really dont know man... Could you help me please? Thanks

[andydiscovery]

@sonus89 Don't worry about wire colours, trace where they go and wire accordingly:

One wire to first brush, other brush wire to the armature wire, second wire to other armature connection.

[sonus89]

@andydiscovery Thank you very much for your help! I've deassembled my motor, and found there coloured wires. The colors are: blue yellow red brown and orange-white. And dear mace: It is not a trivial stuff! Not for everyone!

[mace1337]

@andydiscovery It's because I don't upload trivial stuff like this.

[andydiscovery]

@mace1337 judging by the fact you have posted nothing and by you're own admission you don't post 'trivial' that must mean everything you do is trivial and not 'tube-worthy' - thanks for not putting your dullness on Youtube, appreciated :)

[turtlecat77]

i can create a jet with that thing

[NotnaRed]

Next level: Wire it up to 400V.

[roelandtiemens]

put your finger in it

[3Deity]

Aren't these mains motors anyway?

[JATO457]

@3Deity actually, they arent, the mains power just runs multiple things at once, this is one of them.

[3Deity]

@JATO457 Yeah since posting that comment I saw someone else say how they are high frequency motors so of course they can run on any mains, anywhere on the planet.

[marybuggy1]

okay put that on a gokart

[elomar1127]

wow a turbine



[kobe316316]

but will it blend?

[TheG4m3H4ck3r]

How much electricity do you spend on all this beasty videos?

[Nick3889]

When this thing reaches 88mph your gonna see some serious shit

[amanvirdy]

FULLLL POWERRRRRR!!!!!!!

[chilidress]

ac or dc ? rpm? volts ? amps? torque?

[CVRealMan]

@chilidress Mains = AC, 240V (Au) RPM "Thousands" Torque, Who knows, its not like its on a dyno...

[Jon124]

mother of shir props for standing that close, any longer and that thing would have melted its bearings and the shaft would have become free as a bird at what sounds like 30k

[SwirlingDrama]

Vtec just kicked in, yo.

[mncnoir0101]

0:24 MAX SPEED!

[Demock]

that thing scares me :|

[happykillmore88]

STICK YOUR JOHNSON IN IT

[LazerChicklets]

Duct tape a cock sleeve on the end.

[roberth129]

Con ese motor se puede volar?

[jpomsims]

The electric car. Reimagined.

[TheWarWasp]

What I expected: eeeeeeeeeeeeeeEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE BOOM

[pyroboy1080service]

@TheWarWasp Haha me too, I was really hoping

[footballstar227]

that thing got a hemi? no it has a washer...

[SolveitUK]

Long long extrention cable and get some fucking propellers on it ffs, where your lust for height.? :D

[gtothefinest]

turn it into a fan and put your penis in it

[Danko1900]

@gtothefinest WHY!?! 

[gtothefinest]

@Danko1900 its called the washing machine motor fan challenge hahahhaha

[DjRaveKing]

SEND IT TO ME I NEED A NEW FAN FOR MY INTEL :D

[snakev10v5]

@DjRaveKing lol imagen that in a computer, the worlds loudest but best CPU cooler lol

[sanderhan1000]

и чо?

[tdragon360]

@TeKaSPT series produces more torque, while in parrallel you can control speeds better

[JATO457]

put a CD on it

[Yannic014]

Can you send me this machine , i need a cooler for my cpu :D

[SCPH7503]

POWER TO MAIN THRUSTERS

[kaze66613]

if my calculations are corrects, when this baby hits 88 mph, you're gonna see some serious shit!

[phartattack]

Now make it battery operated and hook it to the bicycle

[legomaniacman]

More power than a prius :D

[Sohave]

Hi what are you using for motor controll?

[Aluminiumimmunitaet]

@LeviathanTank lol i just had the same idea

[ajizdoll]

ganah demo

[blvmjohndavid]

BOOM! 

[jtmjtm2001]

Strap it onto that bike!

[Tridecalogism]

hold onto the shaft next time.

[thomasking55]

Attach a massive flywheel next :D

[akkudakkupl]

Field windings not connected?

[ArcadeGames]

How much power do you have to put in it to get it that fast?

[sparkyuiop]

Redneck's UK!

[6611nitro]

@Tendontranchant same basic design only difference is fuel air movement and size

[CDA441]

you should power a go cart with this

[doomsd46]

@CDA441 - Its AC, not DC so you would need an inverter. AC motors really are no good for go-karts.

[TheMrbubl3s]

@CDA441 That wouldn't work.

[fredbcj]

someone chuck it at the bloke

[idrisohorella]

can this motor produce electricity ? please answer

[oppisiteofafredfan]

@idrisohorella Use electricity to make electricity? Dumb idea if you ask me.

[Renatodonadio]

@oppisiteofafredfan He means producing electricity by turning the shaft with a gas engine or something else

[phobos2k2]

@idrisohorella If you turn an electric motor backwards from the out put shaft, like with a gas motor, , you'll get power from the input side. It's basically a dynamo.

[Natesmodelrailroad]

@phobos2k2 Generally, that's true with any electric motor, AC or DC...just gotta make sure it's connected right.

[TributeToTesla]

build wind turbine use it as a generator.

[linkaylomen1]

Erm.. that's as fast as they go inside a washing machine...

They're still fed at 240v 50hz, only reason your washing machine doesnt spin that fast is because of the turn ratio on the belt and wheel at the back of the drum, so all you've done here is plug in a motor... nice one, gold star for you.

[daliad100]

@linkaylomen1 It's probably a series wound motor therefore has no top speed limit when unloaded like this.

They can potentially disintegrate if allowed to run away which why you should really run one of these with a decent load attached like a fan or flywheel.

[transmissionslipping]

Like a jet taking-off...

[tyloish]

I was waiting for a (BOOM!!!!!)

[deadInf3rno]

thats slightly terrorfying

[HumzaAhmed155]

sounds like a seagate barracuda

[adriansi1111]

however, very nice sound. Sounds like a jet engine!

[adriansi1111]

It seems to be a universal motor, serial configuration: high starting torque, and when operated with no load, the rotor spin up beyond the safe limits. Running without load may damage the motor.

[dmonat]

These people have never heard of "catastrophic failure?" Good Lord man, that thing should have been inside a bullet proof room.

[JakeEricson]

@dmonat Nah. They deserved their Darwin Award if it exploded.

[alonwork2]

@dmonat or inside a bulletproof washing machine :-p

[stanglver151]

hondas new motor

[vrockpokey100]

and_thats_how_its_done

[boss201080]

hello and I want a diagram of electrical connections and for that I am an identical engine and you do not know how to connect please help me. Romanian so I use Google translate

[tonyvu60]

how do you rig it? I'm not an electrical person and find it still puzzling to visualize what "wire it straight to the mains" means. :-). Appreciate your hint.

[LeGaminfly]

put it on a rc plane and ducktape a dog on the plane

[oldtrucker63]

The one I have is a 1.1/2 HP motor and the max RPM is 1750 RPM

[HolyGuyz]

interesting... build a mini car powered by battery... cool~~~!

[maxcor3]

guys can you power up a washing machine engine with a car battery?

[Peebukas1]

And how hot did that poor thing go?

[gerbilPROJECT]

@verballaundry or just pull off the whole roof. or flatten everything in you room. or flatten your entire house. or cause a hurricane.

[paracelsus8]

oooooooooooooh

[bryce995]

what kind of washing machine did that come out of

[bryce995]

how manny volts is that running that off of or could it be powerd by a car batery please respond!!!!!!!!!!!!

[PrinceBerzelius]

@bryce995 220V

[evilbunny028]

could you put one of these on a gokart? but powered by a car battery??

[zombiepancakes21]

@evilbunny028 no, a car battery (or any kind of battery) supplies DC voltage this runs on AC

[evilbunny028]

@zombiepancakes21 ohh thx and for the tip...

[nwhiggins]

@evilbunny028 yes, you could, and it'd be awesome, but you'd need an inverter to get 120 VAC out of 12VDC.

[evilbunny028]

@nwhiggins oo thx

[joebeatch]

Wow... you have no idea of how dangerous that is. its cool to see but please kids, do not do this at home without an experienced electrician around. a motor running that fast with no load is a death trap.

[potanda]

@joebeatch why? please tell :0

[indyracingnut]

In electric motor-speak this is saying "HEEEEEEEEEEEERE KITTY KITTY KITTY!!"

[ipadize]

dont let your hair fall into the motor

[app0the]

make this into a fan lol

[jtmjtm2001]

@app0the They would have a tornado!

[pleasecho2]

You can easily run certain front load washer drive motors using their own controller and neat wiring trick. Msg me for info

[galegregory97comcast]

me 2 dad lol

[1BadRobot1]

'Turn it off.. no, you turn it off' lol.

[yoheath66]

imagine putting a set of fan blades on that

[Fentanyl3]

@DanFrederiksen Thinking back, you are correct, it's been several years since I studied anything electrical. Thanks!

[Maeousie]

Now attach it to that bike wheel and see just how fast you go :-)

[servisslimline]

what washing machine did this motor come from?

[PUG205GTX]

@4freespeech No the drum dosn't spin 30,000rpm its like a 10:1 ratio or so not sure of exact speed & ratio but somthing on those lines, Plus that had no load on it.

Example of a vacume cleaner motor when you cover the pipe the motor speeds up because its no longer sucking air through its fins, but wouldn't it be neat if it went that fast, you clothes would come out dry or as dust!!?? :D

[UNOMINER]

@PUG205GTX Dry or as dust lol.

Yes and there be creases in them that would take for ever to gewt out. Thats if you could get them off the holes in the drum. LOL

[PUG205GTX]

@UNOMINER ha ha yeah it could be a new fashion creased and when the material goes through the holes it would wear on the outer drum causing loads of holes to appear :D

[ANDREWWALLFORD123]

More careful of machine, might be cause affect of those machine has explosion.

[AlejandroPerea]

I thing that was too much current..

[DreamSoundTV]

lol i'd be carefull, that thing could explode and rip apart.

[Daneilxxx1]

nice , nut will it blend? :P

[Mrmanonthehill]

I also took out the motor from my old washer, after seeing the size of the motor (like in the video) and thinking about how much weight it can toss around (washer tub fully loaded with wet jeans and towels) with no trouble, I decided to not plug it in and put it away in my garage. I was afraid of lossing a limb.

[mrkhristoff]

@Mrmanonthehill

to make a vid as lame as this vs possible shrapnel....just walk away

[RockerBrandGuitars]

great way to die

[fullraph]

How many hp is that?

[cLaX1227]

make that bad-ass into a fan :D

[YTBYTBTB]

WOW Awesome Power !!

Thanks for posting :)

[525halo]

can you make a air-raid siren with that

[mariomilcha]

can you write whic wires you stripped to wire the motor to the main to run like that, would apreciate it, im trying to di it but i fail

[mariomilcha]

@mariomilcha i hooked it up but is is spinning real slow, maybe i messed up somewhere or missed somehting,, pls help

i hooked up (yellow green ) (blue) (brown) wires directly to it and it spins

[pmdwashere]

lol you could wash clothes really quick with that.

[wapperott]

really loud

[theplatypus3]

I DARE YOU TO KICK IT WHILE ITS RUNNING -O-

[Thetruthishere11]

lathe

[nvidia0]

sounds like an airplane jaja

[brantonisme]

gah, thanks 4 rapeing my ears!

[diegoribadacunha]

now built a kart with it ;-)

[Fulmer4Tech]

it sounds like a baby jet engine. lol

[Tomasu321]

Pretty cool :) but making a electric engine do a couple thousand rpm's isn't that significant without a load.

Try adding a frequency modulator to the mix then you can pull some serious rpm even with load. We managed 7000 rpm on a tiiiny little motor with a small load before the modulator gave up. It's pretty fun :)

[MrNik1001]

Oh God hahah this is really cool. I have one in my garage, and I don't want it to go to waste; did you do anything with it?

[whichwasher2007]

just to tell ya, that depending what washing machine it was from, it can be spinning anywhere between 10,500rpm and 15,000rpm. attche a rachet drill holder to it and you have the worlds most powerful drill

[Nivicoman]

@whichwasher2007 I remember my dad giving a neighbor the motor from a washing machine. He converted it to a bench mounted grinding machine.

[redsonya100]

Damn! Imagine putting that in a RC CAR??????????!!!!! Fucken FAST AND THE FURIOUS RC!!!

[PROFX2009]

Holy fuckin shit!!!

This is AWSOME!

When i tried this, it went boom, 3cm of the cable melted and the house was dark.

[fireball1821]

how did you wire it up?

[WHYNOTMEB4U]

REDNECK AHOY!!!!!!!!!!!

[DanieLaixer]

You should've let it running until it burned

[JesusJack4x4]

how long will it last at that hi rpm ?? is it good for anything ?

[keyster76]

anyone know how to hook one up to a regular outlet? i need to know which color wires are pos/neg and ground. i am building a lapidary saw and a washing machine motor is perfect for this.

[318Captain]

ac current it doesnt matter which. I believe.

[trickydickyd]

thats a motor from a washing maching. sole if im not mistaken. work with them every day

[DaRonny]

@trickydickyd Wow you can read the title of the vid. Congratz!

[ffdxshow]

electric motor is a strange thing. at 0 rpm the power draw is the highest and at max rpm it's vice versa.

[Nivicoman]

@ffdxshow cause the spinning armature creates an opposing current that is proportional to it's rpm.

[roastingpeanuts]

no it was like 1 rpm ahha just messin

[Babis995]

I have a motor like this but it has 4 wires on it, i don't know what to do,DOES ANYBODY KNOWS? How do i have to connect the wires to make it work with 240v from wall.

[wolveshockey1993]

im not too good with this stuff either but you need to connect it to a stepper motor driver circuit that pulses between the pins. one set of magnets pull the rotating part and then the next set pulls it and so on building up speed

[Babis995]

yes, but the motor on video it's connected directly to 110v or 240v power supply.

[Weasil666]

It could be from an electric lawnmower. I wouldn't recommend 240V unless it says to use it on the motor, otherwise I'd just try 110/120V.
