[Stoves] Question regarding motors

Stovers,

 

 

I want to turn a frame holding solution of biochar along with toxicants to
determine up-take potential. Also to turn wood and biochar  pellets to
determine hardness. It needs to turn at 30 and 50 RPM. 

Can I use a ¼ HP motor with a Variac ? I have a motor ordered that turns at
52 RPM (gearing included) and would like to fine turn it to 50 rpm then, if
it will not destroy the motor, adjust it down to 30 rpm with the same
variac.

 

Thanks

 

Frank
