Series dc motors

Series dc motors

Where high starting torques are required for a DC motor, the series motor is used. The load must be solidly connected to the motor and never decrease to zero to prevent excessive motor speeds. The load must tolerate wide speed variations from full load to light load.

Typical areas of application are industrial trucks, hoists, cranes, and traction duty.
