motor controller board mod?

Jun 04, 2009 0 Replies

I've managed to blow up a small DC motor and controller board. Yeah! I know. But brain wasn't in gear...!! :-(



The motor was shunt wound, fractional HP.



I have a shunt wound replacement board, but not the right kind of motor.



The usual combination of the wrong gearing or something. I do have a series wound motor that might work.



Question is can I hack the shunt wound board so as to drive a series wound motor?



I case it helps, the board is a Penta Power KBIC board. I've considered contacting the manufacturer but I don't think that anyone at the company would want to encourage me to hack up their boards.



Tanks for any help.
