This document describes the World K Series Induction and Reversible Motors (Terminal Box Type) from Oriental Motor.
The World K Series motors are designed for various industrial applications, offering both continuous operation for induction motors and 30-minute rated operation for reversible motors. These motors are equipped with either thermal protection (TP/TP211) or impedance protection (ZP) to prevent burnout due to abnormal heating. The thermal protection system automatically stops the motor when a predetermined temperature is reached and restarts it once the temperature falls to a safe level. Impedance protection increases coil impedance to suppress current input during locked rotor conditions, protecting the motor coil.
The motors are designed to operate in either clockwise (CW) or counter-clockwise (CCW) directions. For single-phase motors, direction is controlled by a switch. For three-phase motors, direction is changed by swapping any two connections between U, V, and W. The rotation direction is defined as viewed from the output shaft side.
Motor Types and Power: The series includes both induction and reversible motors, available in various power ratings (6W, 25W, 40W, 60W, 90W). Voltage options include:
Capacitor Specifications (for single-phase motors): Capacitors are supplied with single-phase motors and must be connected as per the wiring diagrams. Capacitance varies by motor model, e.g., CH35FAUL, CH25FAUL, CH08BFAUL, CH80CFAUL, CH110CFAUL, CH200CFAUL, CH280CFAUL for induction motors, and CH45FAUL, CH35FAUL, CH10BFAUL, CH100CFAUL, CH160CFAUL, CH250CFAUL, CH350CFAUL for reversible motors. Capacitor UL File No. E83671 (CYWT2) and VDE Licence No. 114747 (for 450VAC types) are specified.

Installation: Motors can have either round shafts or pinion shafts. Round shaft motors are mounted directly to a mounting plate using screws, washers, and nuts. Pinion shaft motors are attached to a gearhead (sold separately) using supplied screws, then the gearhead is mounted to the plate. It is crucial to ensure no gaps exist between the motor/gearhead and the mounting plate. For motors with cooling fans, a minimum 10mm (0.4 inches) clearance or a ventilation hole must be provided behind the fan cover to prevent blocking the cooling inlet. Capacitors (for single-phase motors) must be mounted at least 10 cm (3.94 inches) away from the motor to prevent premature aging due to heat.
Wiring: All wire connections, including those between the motor and capacitor, must be insulated. Capacitor caps are provided for insulation. The terminal box allows cable entry from any of its four sides, offering flexibility in positioning. For safety, the motor must be grounded using the grounding terminal inside the terminal box. Ring terminals or fork terminals with insulation are recommended for connecting lead wires.
Operation: Induction motors are rated for continuous operation. Reversible motors have a 30-minute rating, indicated as "30min" on the nameplate. During operation, the motor case temperature can exceed 70°C (158°F). A warning label should be affixed if the motor is accessible during operation. The motor case temperature must not exceed 90°C (194°F) to prevent deterioration of coils and ball bearings. For single-phase induction motors, changing the rotation direction requires the motor to come to a complete stop first; otherwise, the direction may not change or may take a long time to change. The capacitor must remain connected even after the motor has started.
Troubleshooting: The manual provides a detailed troubleshooting guide for common issues such as:
