Initial Start Up Testing of 1915 Vintage 750 HP Wound Rotor Motor after Rewinding the Rotor & Stator

City of Memphis Gayoso Pumping Station 750 HP 6,250 Volt 116 RPM Wound Rotor Motor #3 initial Start-Up testing after rewind of both the stator and rotor. This machine drives a pump that moves 135,000 GPM of storm water from the Gayoso drainage area into Wolf River Harbor between Mud Island and the City of Memphis which then feeds directly into the Mississippi River. When the Mississippi River is higher than 28 feet, one of these four motors will be started to help pump down storm water from old Gayoso Bayou basin in the harbor protecting the City of Memphis and especially St. Jude's Childrens Hospital research wing.

Seeing that 110 years ago may have made the average Joe fully shit his pants.

@djplonghead5403 Před 3 měsíci
The fact that an electric motor in a car makes almost the same power as this is absurd. Crazy how technology moves.
@CATech1138 Před 3 měsíci
850hp at 116rpm equals nearly 40,000 pound feet of torque

@FlorinSutu Před 7 měsíci
It looks like an old DC motor, but it may also be an induction motor with copper rings and carbon brushes for the rotary part.
@amfrance Před 7 měsíci
Very, very, very cool
@EphemeralProductions Před 7 měsíci
Cute and funny how the two guys leaned in to look at it really close. lol. :)

HAS BEEN RUNNING PERFECTLY SINCE 1915, LOOKS AND SOUNDS ABSOLUTELY STUNNING... UNFORTUNATELY THE HSE HAVE TURNED UP... WE NEED HANDRAILS, KICK BOARDS, SAFETY GLASS, SAFE WALKWAYS CLEARLY PAINTED ON THE FLOORS, 3,657 SAFETY AWARENESS SIGNS ERRECTED, BLAR BLAR BLAR BLAR BLAR BLAR BLAR. 😭😭😭, 🤣🤣🤣... A CREDIT TO THE WORKFORCE, WELL DONE
@geoffreypiltz271 Před 8 měsíci
If it's been running since 1915 and doing the job of pumping, then it's proved it's suitability, reliability and longevity. It would be stupid to replace it.
@Sam-ob4of Před 8 měsíci
*you mean 557,25kW
@kevinsellsit5584 Před 8 měsíci
Spectacular! Imagine the joy they felt on the first start in 1915! You had the advantage of knowing it already worked. Nice job! How many Amps does it take to make that wonderful sound?
@LakhsTsoyknikas Před 8 měsíci
fantastic motor generator wow
@kaiserhhaie841 Před 9 měsíci
IDK why but I associate the sound of that motor with a factory, like, just a generic factory making random stuff. When that thing hummed to life I was like "huh, I wonder if this is a factory" xD
@custos3249 Před 9 měsíci
Makes all the difference when something is engineered for installation longevity vs MVP (minimum viable product). Notice how only one has "product" in the term.

Find it hard to believe a motor that size is just 750 hp
@Roger__Wilco Před 9 měsíci
Maybe this is their bemused reaction to realising they wired it backwards :D
@ericnixon3616 Před 10 měsíci

@davecrupel2817 Před 10 měsíci
750 horsepower. But enough torque to turn a skyscraper.
@chadd587 Před 11 měsíci
Looks like an old classic car tire. If only that red ring was white
@DaBoogie049 Před rokem
They had crazy stuff back then. I was at an old Industrial site today. It made me think, that people were much more intelligent then.

Wooow. This Electric motor more 110 years old. Very amazing starting and Spinning up Sound.❤👌👍👍Please more making such videos.

Love the startup sound

Massive respect for rewinding it over replacing it.
