Sankyo clock motor list

[Guest]

Sankyo clock motors sometimes have a bad reputation and rightfully so, but some are fairly robust and rebuildable. Hoping this thread can track them as well as other brands that use their movements.



Sankyo 401/501/423 - Sealed Telechron-type field coil motor (possible to swap with Telechron S-type?). No label on motor except "60c" for 60 cycles.

Sankyo 313/314/521/451/431 - Intermatic type motor. Rebuildable. Arrow Ball Clock, Kit Cat, WG-1420, Sankyo, Spa, Intermatic Motors, Repair Kit. | eBay

Two more for the list. Both of these are 240 volt, 50 cycles so the 501 must be an exception to the Telechron motor above.

Sankyo 101 - Intermatic type motor
Sankyo Digi-Glo 501 - Intermatic type motor

Two more:
Sankyo 202 - Intermatic (220V 50Hz)
Sankyo 535 - Something else (powered by one D-cell battery)

One more from the UK

Sankyo 303 - Intermatic (240v 50Hz)

Just got a Sankyo 501 with an Intermatic motor (220V, 50 Hz). Note this is different from what Guest stated in the top post. Maybe Sankyo switched motor type or used different motors for different markets.

Sankyo 551 Intermatic motor- imo, the best Sankyo out there.
