Bertrand Polico Engines

(OP)
Hi, im an intern at a interactive art studio.

We have got these electric engines (see pictures) that are probably really old.
I want to see if i can get them to work so we could use them in an installation eventually.
There is not much to find about the motors or the manufacturer.
But maybe someone here can help me.

What type of connector is it?
What kind of signal do i feed it and how much power should i use.
Is there special hardware needed to get these things running?
And if they work what should i expect in terms of power / speed.

Thanks in advance for your help in this matter.

RE: Bertrand Polico Engines

You can just cut the connector off and wire it directly. As the label says, 20V DC gices you 1000rpm. Any small DC supply 3-12V will run it if it is rated for at least 1 amp. Many small wall wart chargers for an old cell phone will provise 5V at 1A.
