MOTOR CONTROL FORMULAS

To calculate motor full load torque:

To calculate horsepower:

T=

(5250) (HP) N

HP =

TN 5250

Where: T = torque (ft lbs) HP = horsepower N = motor base speed (RPM)

Where: T = torque (in-lbs) N = speed (RPM)

To calculate synchronous speed:

rpmsyn =

(120) (f) Np

Where: rpmsyn = synchronous speed f = supply frequency Np = number of poles
