Slo-Syn stepping motor wiring diagram

Jan 17, 2006 4 Replies

I have an old Slo-Syn Model HS25 stepper motor made by The Superior Electric Company in Bristol, CT.



Specs are 45 oz-in, 5.4V at 1.5A. It has six wires colored:



Red Black Green White Red-white Green-white



Does anyone know where I might find a wiring diagram for this motor?



Regards, Marv

If it's like the newer ones we use (which are still obsolete btw) one winding is GN and GN/W, the other is RED and RED/WH.

My diagram shows GN as "A" and GN/WH as "A-NOT", R/WH as "B" and RED as "B-NOT" as far as the controller is concerned.

Black and White are both centertaps on the windings, and because we are running the windings in series, they are not connected to anything.

Unles you are using a 3180 drive by slo-syn then I can't help with the other end of the cable.

But by all means ring the windings out with a simpson meter to double check that the above makes sense before you power it.

If you know the basic design you should be able to figure it out with continuity.

I've got a Slo-syn catalog from 1985 here that agrees with Jim's description. The BLK wire is the center tap for the RED and RED/WH pair.

The catalog indicates that the HS25 was superceded by M062-FC03, which has similar ratings to those on your motor.

I think those are two centertaped windings. The tracer colored leads are the C.T. s . Check with an ohmeter. ...lew...
