Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these brushes compatible with 110-120V motors?

No, these specific Reliapart carbon brushes (833415-55) are designed for 220–240V Ametek Lamb motors only.

What does '28-bar, 1.125" commutator' mean?

This refers to the physical dimensions and type of the commutator, the rotating part of the motor's armature with which the brushes make contact. '1.125"' is the diameter, and '28-bar' indicates the number of segments.

How often should I replace the carbon brushes?

The lifespan of carbon brushes varies based on usage. Inspect them periodically, typically every 6-12 months for regularly used equipment, or when you notice a decline in motor performance. Replace them when they are significantly worn down.

Can I use these brushes if my motor has a slightly different commutator size?

It is strongly recommended to use brushes with the exact specified dimensions. Using brushes that are too large or too small can lead to poor performance, increased wear, or damage to the motor and commutator.

Do these brushes come pre-lubricated?

Carbon brushes typically do not require lubrication; they rely on the natural lubricating properties of carbon and the surface of the commutator.

What is the warranty period for these brushes?

Please refer to the specific warranty information provided by the retailer or manufacturer (Reliapart) at the time of purchase for details on warranty duration and coverage.

Is it possible to clean the commutator without removing the brushes?

While minor cleaning might be possible, it is best practice to remove the old brushes to gain clear access to the commutator for thorough cleaning to ensure optimal contact with the new brushes.

Troubleshooting

Motor does not start after brush replacement.

Ensure the new carbon brushes are correctly seated and making firm contact with the commutator. Double-check that the vacuum cleaner is properly reassembled and plugged in. Verify motor compatibility.

Reduced motor power or performance.

Confirm that the brushes are the correct size and type for your motor. Ensure the commutator is clean and free from carbon dust or damage. Check for any other obstructions in the vacuum system.

Motor sparks excessively.

Excessive sparking can indicate worn brushes, a dirty or damaged commutator, or a faulty motor. Inspect brushes for wear and the commutator for cleanliness. If issues persist, the motor may require further professional inspection.

Brushes wear out very quickly.

This could indicate a problem with the commutator (e.g., rough surface, out of true) or that the motor is being operated under excessive load. Ensure the motor is not overloaded and that the commutator is smooth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Compatibility:

Before installation, verify that your vacuum motor is a 7.2" Ametek Lamb model operating on 220–240V and features a 28-bar, 1.125" commutator. These carbon brushes (833415-55) are specifically designed for this configuration.

Setup & Installation:

  1. Safety First: Ensure the vacuum cleaner is unplugged from the power source.
  2. Access Motor: Disassemble the vacuum cleaner housing to access the motor and its brush holders.
  3. Remove Old Brushes: Carefully remove the old carbon brushes from their holders. Note their orientation.
  4. Install New Brushes: Insert the new Reliapart carbon brushes into the holders, ensuring they are correctly oriented to make proper contact with the commutator.
  5. Reassemble: Reassemble the vacuum cleaner housing.
  6. Test: Plug in the vacuum and test its operation.

Care:

Carbon brushes are a wear item. Regular inspection is recommended, especially if you notice performance degradation. While the brushes themselves do not require cleaning, ensure the commutator surface they contact is clean and free from debris. Replace brushes when they are visibly worn down to approximately half their original thickness or show signs of damage.
