My 1940 machine came with a three phase 415V 50 cycle coolant pump. Photo of motor is below. As much as I would like to keep the original pump, I don't think I can find a power supply that runs off 220V single phase to power it. I have a pump from another 10EE, but I don't know whether it is 220V. It is a Brown and Sharpe pump, but the only markings are on the pump which say No. 220, Ser. No. 45. The motor leads are numbered 1,2,3 & G, and 4 is connected to 7, 5 to 8 and 6 to 9. That's all I know about it. Photos below. There are no other labels or tags on the motor except a USAF/Hughes Aircraft property tag. Assuming it is 208V 3-phase, my next question is, can I run it from 220V single phase using a static converter? That would enable me to use the existing controls on the machine to run the pump. Ideas appreciated. Just in case you are wondering, the motor for the lathe was originally a 3-phase 415V motor (also from Howell Motors), which was replaced by a 110/220V 3HP single phase GE motor.
