I am having trouble with a motor reversing circuit and would love some guidance.
I have a SPDT selector switch and two SPDT limit switches that I want to use to start and stop the reversible rotation of a round door 180° in each direction.
The motor that is connected to the door is an AC gear motor.
I have the limit switches mounted on the door frame with cams on the door.
When the door is closed, the N.O. contact for limit switch “A” is closed.
When the door starts to rotate, the closed N.O. contact for limit switch “A” will be opened and after the door has rotated 180° to the open position, the N.O. contact for limit switch “B” will be closed.
The motor, a Bodine #0448, has four wires and a capacitor, and it can be reversed by switching two of the wires.
I am having a hard time trying to come up with a circuit that will do what I want to do.
HELP!!
