Electrolux E130A House Vacuum Motor Adapter

thingiverse

This is a spacer for the top of a replacement motor on an Electrolux E130A. The bearings exploded on the old motor after probably 20 years of service, and the replacement motor is more powerful yet smaller. It no longer mated with the top vent of the case to bring in air to cool the motor, would get stuck recirculating hot air within the compartment and would pop the thermal breaker. This takes up the space between the motor and the top case and stopped the overheating. <br/> <br/> This is the motor. https://evacuumstore.com/p-973-electrolux-central-vacuum-2-stage-motor.aspx This will probably work with other models, the replacement motor works with quite a few different vacuums. Use the fusion file to make adjustments if needed. <br/> <br/> This is printed with polycarbonate for its heat resistance, but my PLC test print seemed to hold up at least for the two weeks before I got around to printing a PC part.
