Remotoring Olympia PRR E6s 4-4-2 Atlantic
Original Olympia Model
GEM/Olympia #118, '66-run

Some pictures from the seller's website http://trainmaster.ch/

Original open frame motor. It draws about 500 mA on the test stand. Reduction gear 1:28, 40x20x12 mm open frame motor

Coreless DC Motor

Coreless DC Motor

I replaced the open frame motor with a coreless DC motor (Maxon A-max16 12V/2W). Datasheet, Distrelec part number 154-22-100.

Calculation for the motor speed:

  • 80 in drivers (scale 23.4 mm)
  • max. speed 115 mph (185 km/h, 51.4 m/s, scale speed 590 mm/s, 8/s, 483/min)
  • Reduction gear 1:28, 13.500/min

Values at 12 V

    110065
Leerlaufdrehzahl 11500 min-1 11700 min-1
Leerlaufstrom 41 mA 32.3 mA
Nenndrehzahl 5460 min-1 5430
Nennmoment (max. Dauerdrehmoment) 2.34 mNm 2.39 mNm
Nennstrom (max. Dauerbelastungsstrom) 0.293 A 0.293 A
Anhaltemoment 4.78 mNm 4.76 mNm
Anlaufstrom 0.521 A 0.519 A
Max. Wirkungsgrad 52 % 56 %
Drehmomentkonstante k   9.17 mNm/A

k = (U0 - I0 Rm) / w0 = (12 - 32.3 mA 23.1) / (2 Pi (11700 / 60)) = 9.185 mNm/A

Shafts and U-Joints from NWSL
