Hotpoint Washing Machine Fhp Motor Carbon Brushes

Description

Carbon brushes with high efficiency for washing machines

Carbon brushes in the motor make contact with the rotating armature, facilitating the attachment of electrical components for sending electricity to the drum or pump. They also control the electrical current and the speed and operation of the motor.

What damages the carbon brushes?

Carbon brushes need to be replaced when they wear down or become too short. The constant friction and contact with the spinning armature gradually wear out the carbon brushes over time.

This wear down gives you reduced motor performance, intermittent operation, or even motor failure.
