Synchronous Motor SM-16T 3W

Description

SM-16T AC 30V 3W Microwave Oven Synchronous Turntable Motor ### Product Overview The SM-16T is a premium-grade, low-speed electromechanical synchronous motor specifically engineered to drive the glass turntable tray inside microwave ovens. Operating at a steady, synchronized speed of 5 to 6 RPM (revolutions per minute), it ensures your food rotates smoothly and continuously for even heat distribution. This motor features a bidirectional (CW/CCW) configuration, meaning it can automatically reverse its rotation direction if the turntable encounters resistance or a heavy dish, preventing the internal gear teeth from stripping or binding. ### Key Features Precise Synchronous Speed: Keeps a consistent 5/6 RPM rotation under load, powered by standard 50/60Hz AC frequencies. Low Voltage Efficiency: Tailored to run on AC 30V, drawing a highly efficient 3 Watts of power. Standard D-Shaped Shaft: Features a standard 7mm plastic D-cut shaft (commonly 14mm in height) to interface perfectly with the microwave’s glass tray drive coupling. Durable Integrated Gearbox: Encased in a sealed aluminum/metal shell with heavy-wear internal reduction gears and two downward-facing male spade terminals for clean, slip-on wiring. ### Product Compatibility & Sizing Specifications While the SM-16T is a highly standardized industry part number, you must match the voltage and shaft profile printed on your old motor’s label before installing. Critical Specifications to Match: Voltage Requirement: This specific variant is rated for AC 30V (typically powered by a dedicated winding on the microwave’s main cooling fan motor). Note: Ensure your old motor is not the 21V or 220V variant. Shaft Style: Flat D-shaped shaft (ensure shaft height and thickness match your plastic coupler hub). Direct Replaces & Equivalent Configurations: Galanz: SM-16T AC 30V 3W (The default OEM component for many Galanz configurations) Galanz: GAL-5-30-TD (30V equivalent series) Midea: MP24AA series (30V sub-variants) Common Compatible Microwave Brands: Because this part serves as a standardized universal replacement module, it fits inside the base of many domestic microwave ovens that utilize a 30V circuit, including: Galanz Midea Kenwood Sharp Panasonic Daewoo Generic/Store-brand countertop microwave ovens ⚠️ Installation Note: Before installing, look closely at the label on your old motor to confirm the voltage (30V). Installing a 30V motor into a microwave circuit that supplies 220V will instantly burn out the coils, while putting it in a 21V circuit will result in weak, stuttering rotation. Always completely unplug the microwave from the wall outlet before removing the bottom access panel.
