Westinghouse motor question

[burgie]

Greetings...

I am starting to gather information for the restoration of my next compressor. It has a Westinghouse 2HP dual voltage electric motor, Model # ALDP.

Does anyone have a website or information on this motor? I'm pretty good surfin' the 'net but can't seem to find anything...

Any help would be appreciated!!!

What exactly are you looking for in regard to info on it?

The wiring connections for the motor should be as follows

For a 115V connection configuration, (Line (HOT) - 1 & 3); (Line (NEUTRAL) - 2 & 4); (5,6 & 10 tied); (7, 8 & 9 tied).

For a 220V connection configuration, (Line (HOT) - 1); (2 & 3 tied); (Line (HOT) - 4); (5 & 10 tied); (6 & 7 tied); (8 & 9 tied)

Double check the name plate / wiring diagram (if present) to verify the connections, but this SHOULD be the correct configuration

If you need replacement bearings, I have found Eurton Electric Supply (eurtonelectric.com) to have almost any bearing I have ever needed for most smaller motors and tool motors.

Let me know if you are looking for any specific info on it and I'll try to help
