Sold my parasail equipment today.
Haven't used it in years. Time to let go before I hurt someone.
Anyway, as I'm packing it up, I noticed the small armature terminal that I didn't use when I first built this.
So long ago that I don't remember my thinking.
Can someone explain if I'm correct guessing it's function?
As I recall, it didn't seem to do much, no matter how it was connected.
Motor is rated 225 amps @ 24 vdc.
I only used it with 12 vdc. (as I recall)
Is the small terminal marked "A" (middle of first picture) a third brush? I've never heard of that.
If it wasn't marked "A", I'd suspect a parallel field winding. Used to prevent over speed.
If the new owner asks, I'd like to have an answer.
