The motor might produce little torque when starting. Single-phase motors are particularly bad in this regard. So it is often necessary to remove the load while starting.

Loads like fans or rotary driers do not need the load taking off while starting, because the demanded torque is small at low speeds.

How single-phase induction motor classified?

The single phase induction motors are made self starting by providing an additional flux by some additional means. Now depending upon these additional means the single phase induction motors are classified as: 1.Split phase induction motor. 2.Capacitor start inductor motor. 3.Capacitor start capacitor run induction motor. 4. Shaded pole induction motor.


What are some alternatives to Baldor motors?

Some potential alternatives to Baldor motors are Swigger Coil Systems OEM motors or Induction motors. One really needs to be more specific on the type of Baldor motor and what it is for to know the best alternative.


What kinds of motors can work as generators?

Some types of dc (direct current) motor can be used to generate dc, in which case they are often called 'dynamos'. Some alternating current (ac) motors can be used to generate ac, in which case they are called 'alternators', but many types will only work as motors. For instance, a squirrel cage ac motor cannot be used as an alternator.


Which relay is used to control 3 phase induction motor?

Overloads for motors are sized from the full load amperage that is taken from the motors nameplate. Depending on who the manufacturer of the motor contactor is will govern the sizing of the relay. Some contactors use bolt in heaters and others use a separate unit that connects to the contactor. No matter what method is used make sure to use the manufactures recommended overloads that are based in the motors FLA.


What are four types of single phase motors?

Some examples of single-phase motors include split-phase, capacitor-start, shaded pole, and permanent split capacitor (PSC) motors. Each type has its own unique design and application, offering different characteristics and performance capabilities.


Is your washing machine motor an induction type?

Older/cheaper washers all use AC induction motors. Some now use permanent magnet AC motors or "pancake" motors. The pancake motor is a large diameter flat motor that is directly attached to the drum and doesn't require gearing or pulleys. They're often called "direct drive" or "smart drive".


Definition of a resistance-start induction run motor?

Resistance start-induction run motors are commonly known as split phase. They are only single phase motors. They have 2 sets of windings, the Start winding which is high resistance and low inductance made for thin wire, and the Run winding which is low resistance and high inductance made for thick wire. The 2 windings are set skewed about 30 degrees on a twist. This is to create the angular rotary motion, which is what a motor is all about. On start up both start and run windings are energised. Some form of switch disconnects the start winding when the motor is about 75% up to speed, and only the run winding remains in the circuit. There you have it.....

What is the use of centrifugal switch in single phase induction motors do all single phase motors gave them?

To stop a three-phase motor dead ('plugging'), rather than allowing it to slow to a stop, the motor controller interchanges two of the three lines -which applies a reverse torque to the machine. But before the motor then gets a chance to reverse direction, the centrifugal switch trips the starter and removes the supply. <<>> The centrifugal switch that you refer to and can see in an open frame motor, is used to open the start winding of small HP single phase motors. Once the motor gets up to a certain RPM, the switch opens and the motor continues to operate on its run winding. When the motor stops, the switch goes back to its normally closed position in the start winding and awaits the next start operation.


Chevy truck tries to start but dies down after a bit as if taking a load it cannot handle why?

If a Chevy truck tries to start but then doesn't, it might be that the battery is low. Check the alternator also to make sure that battery is charging properly. Some larger motors require a larger cranking amp from the battery to start.


Can a motor be used for generator?

Yes, all motors are generators and all generators can be generators. Depending on the type of motor, some are easier to work with. If you mean the common induction motor, you can plug it in and it...


How do you calculate no load current of motor?

On an average, the following assumptions will stand good for an induction motor: * Starting current (Ist) will be 5 times of the Full Load Amps (IFLA) * No Load Amps (INLA) can be any where between 0.3 to 0.5 times of IFLA; To the most, this figure depends upon the frame size of the motor; larger the frame size, smaller will be the INLA. This is also true for the wound rotor type induction motors. Manufacturers normally give two different current figures, one for the motor running with full load, and one for 'locked rotor'. Locked rotor current is the very high current drawn when power has been applied, but the motor has not had time to start spinning. No load current is important since this portion of the energy consumed will not be reflected in the process output, for a machine which is running continuously, no one can neglect whatever low value it is. Usually, the efficiencies will be mentioned and one can apply basic thumb rules to arrive no load current from those figures Manufacturers don't usually publish 'current at no load' for their motors. Since a motor with no load is not doing anything useful, no one really cares how much current is being drawn. It's kind of like putting your car up on a jack so the wheels are off the ground and asking how much fuel will the car burn sitting still with the wheels turning at 10 miles an hour - or at 100 miles per hour - who cares? !!!
