DATA FILE

MACHINES - MFM-300 TWO-VALVE CAPACITANCE MOTOR

The Hampden Model MFM-300 is basically a four-pole, single-phase, split-phase motor consisting of a main winding, a starting winding, a centrifugal switch, and a squirrel-cage rotor. With the addition of the starting resistor, the starting capacitor, and the permanent capacitor, it is possible to operate the MFM-300 as a capacitor start motor, a two-value capacitor motor, or a split-phase motor. Mounted on the motor is a thermal cutout switch. If an overload occurs the button will pop up. Remove the cause of the overload and, after the motor cools, depress the button to reset the switch.
