How to Test an Electric Motor

[electronbean]

I am struggling with this electric motor.

This motor is composed of these parts:

Rotor: https://ibb.co/FDXB80v
Stator: https://ibb.co/FWqnt60

Is managed by a speed regulator (PWM). I want to test this motor by applying 230VAC to its terminals to see if the motor works well. I know, but I don't have an oscilloscope to debug PWM My question and doubt are: If I put 230VAC directly into the leads of this motor, should it work, right?

This is the two wire I have to connect the motor: https://ibb.co/nLpZ4mT

It appears to be a universal motor so would be capable of running on AC.  However for speed controlled motors it isn't uncommon for manufacturers to use a 100V motor world-wide and use a region dependent speed control module that limits the max. average motor voltage to 100V, so bypassing the speed controller in a 220V-240V country may be risky.

Try running it with no load on its shaft, on 12V DC.  It should spin steadily at a smallish fraction of its normal speed.  If its jerky there's probably something wrong with it.

Also try a low wattage mains incandescent bulb in place of the motor.  (not greater than 10% of the motor watts).  The speed control should vary its brightness.
