Controlling YC100L-4 Capacitor Start Single-Phase Asynchronous Motor with Arduin

Hello,
How can I control this motor with arduino ?
Simple on/off will do, no need to control the speed or direction.
Can I just use a relay ? or do I need a high power driver board ?

Get a relay to match the current requirements of the motor and the relay coil to match whatever you are using to control it.

How many of these are you making? Hast to bas to be at least 50.

Can't really find a suitable relay.. All what I found are 1A ones....
except for this one:

This should work right ?

Have a look at single phase contractor

You need a contactor similar to this, depending on motor current or power (you didn't say) and control voltage (you didn't say).

I still want ot know why the OP wants to use motors that have a minimum order quantity of 50!!

I linked to the motor specifications above...

So this relay wont work ?

Must I use a contactor ?

Who can say when you will not supply the operating parameters.

Additional: A contactor will open/close BOTH sides of the power to the motor. In addition, some contactors will also monitor the power for over-current and open the contactor if that happens.

That would be known as a motor starter.

Generally speaking, single phase starters don’t exsist because the majority of single phase motors are either impedance protected or they include a klixon type thermal overload buried in the stator that is in series with the mains input.

If you encounter a single phase machine that requires thermal protection, it is a simple matter to use a standard three phase starter. Connect to the A and B phases, passing the B phase output into the C phase input and connect the B phase load to the C phase output. In this way, all three phases see the motor load current so the thermal elements will operate correctly. Easy peasy.
