Any ideas on this motor?

On the left:



If the picture doesnt show up, it's on ToViewFans5, next to the Codep with the pilot lights and the Ritz heater.


Any ideas on brand? The motor itself inside the housing is very odd, the "flywheel" where the blades mount is cast, the rest is stamped with holes in it. When I got it it was in a box with some very standard blade arms and a Hunter Original 2 piece canopy. I assumed the canopy did *not* go with the motor, but it could have.

Is it very heavy? Also you mentioned a flywheel, what kind of motor then? K55? K63?

I think the last one Could be a Moss heater Fan and the sceond one a Codep and the first one maybe a Boarn that what I think.

I put flywheel in quotes because it's not a regular flywheel, just a cast disc about 1/2" thick welded to the bottom of the stamped spinner motor. And yes it is very heavy.

Shafarah, the second two fans had already been labeled with the brand names, I was only questioning the first one. You are correct about them though, it is a Codep, and a Ritz heater (not Moss but the same thing).

As for your guess of the first one being a Broan, that thought does cross my mind. The motor is not a conventional Broan/Alaska motor but it could be an earlier version. I suppose I'll have to hook it up to see if low speed is first.
