    Abstract: A method for fabricating a rotor for an electric motor is provided. The method includes the steps of fabricating a first set of rotor parts for use in a motor having a first frame size and fabricating a second set of rotor parts for use in a motor having a second frame size. The second frame size is substantially different from the first frame size. The method further includes the steps of fabricating a third set of rotor parts for use in the motor having the first frame size and for use in the motor having the second frame size, ascertaining the desired motor frame size, and selecting one of the first set of rotor parts and the second set of rotor parts in accordance with desired motor frame size. The method also includes the steps of selecting the third set of rotor parts and assembling a rotor with one of the first set of rotor parts and the second set of rotor parts and with the third set of rotor parts, such that a rotor for use with the desired motor frame size is substantially provided.

    Abstract: According to an embodiment of the invention, an electric machine for use in an environment having moisture is provided. The machine includes a housing that has an inner surface defining a cavity in the housing. The housing defines a leak path exit adapted to remove moisture accumulating within the housing away from the housing. The electric machine further includes a stator secured to the housing and a rotor that is rotatably secured to the housing. The electric machine further includes a moisture guide positioned at least partially within the cavity and adapted to guide at least some of the moisture toward the leak path exit.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for preventing water from freezing within a pump system. A pump motor is positioned inside a pump housing. A temperature sensor and a motor controller are positioned inside a motor controller housing. A user interface (UI) controller is positioned in a UI housing. A UI is integrated into the UI housing. The UI controller receives a freeze protection temperature setting through the UI reflecting a difference between an ambient temperature at the location of the motor controller housing and an outdoor temperature and determines a freeze protection temperature threshold based on the setting. The UI controller also receives an adjusted temperature value from the motor controller based on the temperature sensed by the temperature sensor. The UI controller activates the pump motor when the adjusted temperature is below the freeze protection temperature threshold.

    Abstract: A radial blower air guide includes a first end wall substantially circumscribing an end bracket of an electric motor. The air guide includes a second end wall spaced apart from the first end wall and has an inner periphery that circumscribes a periphery of the motor. The air guide includes an outer wall extending from an edge of the first end wall to an edge of the second end wall. The outer wall is formed from a thin curved plate and partially defines a ring-shaped chamber therebetween. The outer wall has an aperture defined therethrough. The air guide includes a baffle plate coupled to the inner periphery of the second end wall. The baffle plate extends a first width toward the first end wall and partially defines the chamber. The baffle plate is configured to deflect air to control the distribution of the airflow from the chamber.

    Abstract: A detection circuit for converting a control signal while maintaining electrical isolation between a first ground and a second ground. The detection circuit includes a first input configured to receive the control signal; a gate signal input configured to receive a gate signal; a transformer; an isolator; a rectifier; and an output electrically connected to the rectifier, the output configured to output the converted control signal. The transformer is configured to receive the control signal from the first input, transform the control signal into a transformed control signal, and output the transformed control signal. The isolator is configured to receive the gate signal from the gate signal input, and control the transformer in response to the gate signal. The rectifier is configured to receive the transformed control signal from the transformer, and convert the transformed control signal to a converted control signal.
