What wattage 12 volt inverter do you need to drive a 240 volt quarter horsepower pump motor?

You need to find the wattage of the pump motor. This is found by multiplying the voltage of the motor by the amperage of the motor. Once you have this figure use it to find an inverter that can handle this wattage load at a 240 volt output.

What is the 0-60 time for Honda s2000?
Acceleration (0-60 mph): 6.1 sec. Braking Distance: 121 ft. Base Number of Cylinders: 4 Base Engine Size: 2 liters Base Engine Type: Inline 4 Horsepower: 240 hp Max Horsepower: 8300 rpm Torque: 153 ft-lbs. Max Torque: 7500 rpm Drive Type: RWD
Convert watts to hp?
746 Watts per HP. I like to calculate in some leeway though, so when calculating horsepower required to drive a generator, I figure a 10kw generator will require a 10HP engine.
How fast in KMH is 25 Horsepower?
The question, as stated, cannot be answered sensibly. A kilometre per hour is a measure of speed, with dimensions [LT-1]. A horsepower is a measure of power, with dimensions [ML2T-3]. The two measure different things and basic dimensional analysis teaches that you cannot convert between measures with different dimensions such as these without additional information.

What is needed to convert 1 phase power to 3 phase power?
Three ways to convert single phase to three phase: 1. Static phase converter, efficient with some limitations. (Ronk manufactures some good ones) 2. Variable frequency drive (inverter) you will need to buy one twice the horsepower you are trying to operate. 5 hp load would require a 10 hp inverter. 3.Rotary phase inverter, made from a three phase motor. This also requires a size of twice your load horsepower. Plans are available to build your own or there are manufactured units. Google Smith rotary phase converters.
Which variable frequency drive should I use for a 1.5 ton inverter AC?
You do not need to use an external variable frequency drive for the said AC. You have mentioned that it is inverter AC. It means the AC is already fitted with a built in inverter. Even if you connect an inverter to the AC, you need another control device to control the VFD to control the speed of the fan/ compressor depending upon the room condition, external temperature, temperature setting etc. It is little complicated.
What is the maximum horsepower boat can a minor drive?
No limit
What is self control of synchronous motor drive?
the self control of a synchronous motor is done using an inverter fed through a dc link.speed is controlled by varying the output frequency of the inverter by controlling the dc link voltage
What is use of sink and source in variable frequency drive?
The inverter is mainly composed of rectifier, filter, inverter, brake unit, drive unit, detection unit and microprocessor unit. The inverter relies on the opening and closing of the internal IGBT to adjust the voltage and frequency of the output power supply, providing the power supply voltage required by the motor according to its actual needs, thus achieving the purpose of energy saving and speed regulation. If you want to buy an inverter, you can go to the KUVO website, which is popular for its high quality.
Do you have to have a boating license to drive a six horsepower engine in Florida?
I don'tknow about Florida, but I know in Washington you don't. Only 6.6 horsepower.
Can you use a 12 volt battery with a 48 Volt inverter?
Using a 48 volt inverter on a 12 volt battery almost certainly won't work. In all likelihood, the inverter won't even try to "come up" and drive a load. Let's look at inverters and then figure out what's up. An inverter (in the "usual" sense) converts some fixed DC voltage to an AC voltage which, though it doesn't have exactly the same wave shape as the stuff coming out of a wall outlet, approximates it well enough in voltage and wave form to run, say, a blender out on a tailgate party somewhere. (That would be a 12 volt inverter with appropriate wattage and plugged into the car's lighter plug. Something like that.) The electronics takes the DC voltage and runs it through a "switch" or "chopper" to turn it on and off. The semiconductor device which does this has converted the DC to AC (but not exactly to an AC sine wave like on the power grid). The "chopped" AC is stepped up through a transformer and the appropriate output voltage is thus generated. A bit of "wave shaping" is accomplished along the way, and final result is something that can pass for "household" power and drive that blender for the tailgater we mentioned. So we have an inverter powering up an AC appliance. It's got appropriate wattage to drive the thing. But we're running off a battery. What happens when the battery starts to run out of "juice" while we're working with the blender? Well, as the stored energy drains down, the output voltage of the battery will sag or fall off. And at some point the inverter, because of the electronics package that controls it and what it is set up to do, will decide that the input voltage is "too low" and it will shut down the inverter. It's a design consideration that most inverters share. How does that affect our problem? Read on. Try to drive a 48 volt inverter with a 12 volt source and it's unlikely the inverter will even power up because the electronics control circuits will nix the drive to the switch as a "safety" consideration. You're dead in the water. That's arguably the most correct answer. But there is a ray of hope. Several, actually. Suppliers of the 48 volt inverter would be the solar power industry, the so-called "survival" supply industry, the golf car or electric vehicle industry or possibly the RV industry. Suppliers commonly vend inverters in 12, 24, 36 and 48 volt flavors. If you have a 48 volt inverter and want a 12 volt one, call a nearby company of one (or more) type and see if they'll make a trade. Odds are that they'd be happy to talk to you. Ask about an inverter that was a demo or one that was pulled from a system that was upgraded (and has been tested and deemed "good" by the shop). The bigger outfits usually have something in the "standby" or "backup" equipment locker. Run with those options and see what you can work out. Your inns of last resort may be eBay or Craig's list. As always, good luck with your project.
