"5SPL" horsepower means "5 special use" horsepower, the real world meaning of which is "not really 5" horsepower, you usually see these motors on air compressors sold for home or very light industrial use. They will make close to 5 horsepower intermittently for a brief time right before the compressor kicks off . A good "5" horsepower motor will make 5 horsepower for as long as you have electricity for it.

Physically the difference is 25 to 30lbs. Monetarily, the difference is about $100 to $150.

If you walk into a sears or Kmart store you will see portable appliances known as Vacuum cleaners. the ones for rugs are rated in Amps.

the ones for yards or shops are rated in HP

If we talk of the shop Vac model that says 6.5HP

it has a #18 120V cord on it.

the blade configuration indicates 15A

if the motor is 90% efficient and the blower (turbine) 100% efficient this will require about 45A thru said #18 cord

it has another figure that says 210 MPH which MAY be for the speed of the air in the 2" outlet this would require 0.2 HP

if its for using the attachments using the 1" hose this would indicate 0.05HP.

Faber College (John Belushi) may have originated this

it is special double secret HP so it reads 6.5HP rather than 6.5 Spl HP

What size hydraulic motor is needed to be equal to a 3 hp electric motor?

To determine the size of the hydraulic motor needed to be equal to a 3 hp electric motor, you would need to calculate the hydraulic motor's power output in horsepower. Hydraulic motors are generally less efficient than electric motors, so you may need a larger hydraulic motor to match the power output of a 3 hp electric motor. Consult the manufacturer's specifications and consider factors such as efficiency and operating conditions.


What size electric motor will replace a 16 hp gas motor?

Horsepower is horsepower, so a 16 hp electric motor could, on the surface, replace a 16 hp gas motor. Things to consider, however, include RPM and torque. Gas engines are inefficient, to replace a 16 hp gas engine it would take only a 8 hp electric. standard closest size would be a 10 hp. I have done this several times on air compressors and hydraulic pumps.
