Re: 50 hz timer motor



The Hotpoint top loader I refer to has a cenfigugal clutch below the (induction) motor to drive the gearbox (power unit) via a belt, and the pump is directly above the motor driven via a flexible rubberised canvas coupling known to repairmen as the 'Chinese lantern' because of it`s shape. The top of the motor has a large fan/umbrella to deflect water that inevitably leaks from the pump.



Yep, that sounds identical to the US machine, they made a zillion of those sold under GE, Hotpoint, and a number of other brands, my grandma had one of that design that would be at least 40 years old now if she still had it. If you ever need parts for one, just about everything is available from http://www.repairclinic.com, I don't know if new machines like that are still sold but they were not too many years ago.
