BT139 & MOC3063

I have desined a circuit with a Triac (BT139) to swith an AC Motor that works with 220 VAC. (Go to this link to see my Circuit

) I have used a MOC3063 Optocoupler with Phase Detector capabilities. I seems work fine. but after some times (maybe some hourse) after running the circuit fails and the motor will vibrate and will not rotate. this problem will be solve if i change the MOC3063 with new one. but the same will happen with the second ic. my question is , should i select another range of resistors with the MOC3063 ?

Remove R2 then connect the gate of the '139 to where r2 was connected on the opto isolater, no other connection to the line required.

** Huh ???????

You have weird ideas about how opto-triac triggers work.

They do not generate current internally, you know.

Have a look at page 6 on this PDF datasheet.

** There is no possible way that is true.

R2 simply limits the max trigger current to under 1 amp.

Maybe you mixed up the T1and T2 terminals.

** The OP has posted the same naive message on three NGs.

Got some good replies.

So far responded to none.
