You can approximate the horsepower capabilities of any electric motor by calculating incoming electric power. This is done by simply multiplying the rated voltage by the rated current. This will give you a unit of watts. There are about 746 watts per horsepower. Say if the motor is about 85% efficient, then incoming power will match output power minus this efficiency. Anyways, multiply incoming power by .85 and divide by 746 should give an approximate horsepower of the water pump's motor.

What is the NAICS Code for Fluid Power Pump and Motor Manufacturing?
NAICS 333996 applies to Fluid Power Pump and Motor Manufacturing.
What is digester feed pump?
A digester feed pump forces water to a boiler. It works by transferring cool water to the boiler to be heated.
What is use of centrifugal pump?
generally, centrifugal pumps are high discharge, low pressure generating pumps. to increase the pressure generated it is setup in stages wherein pressure increases from one stage to an other.mostly seen in daily life applications such as pumps for water tankers. even emergency fire fighter vehicles use these type of pumps. these are called dynamic or non-positive displacement pumps.
Why centrifugal pump is not called a positive displacement type of pump?
A positive displacement pump causes a fluid to move by trapping a fixed amount of it then forcing (displacing) that trapped volume into the discharge pipe. Centrifugal pumps impart pressure to the fluid, to cause a pressure differential and cause flow, but even if the outlet is sealed, the pump can continue to run because it hasn't trapped the fluid. When no flow is occurring, a centrifugal pump acts like a propeller spinning in the water. If flow is stopped on a line that a positive displacement pump is supplying flow to, the pump is forced to stop since the trapped fluid prevents it from moving any more fluid.
What is a mill levy?
A mill levy could be a dam created to hold water for powering a mill with a waterwheel of turbine. In Holland where windmills are used to pump water from lowlands, a levy could refer to a dike that hold back water from higher ground or within canals.
How many horse power do you need to get water from 1oometer deep?

How do you calculate horse power of motor required for vacuum pump for 650 cumhr and 500 mm Hg?
hi. you can calculate with ASABE standard! look at this paperhttp://mainerural.webfactional.com/energy/fieldguide/vacuumpumps.pdf
How many gallons per minute will a 1 horse power pump produce?
That will also depend on how high the water is to be pumped: to pump it higher requires more energy per second, i.e., more power.
What is the pumping capacity of Gould Pump 10GS10422?

Do you have to remove power steering pump on 1996 Pontiac Bonneville 3800 to replace water pump?
No, you don't have to remove the power steering pump to remove water pump. You do have to loosen the 2 screws that hold the power steering pump and then move power steering pump about an inch or so, so you can have access to some of the screws that hold the water pump on.
How do you calculate horse power of compressor?
To calculate the horse power of a compressor one would need to use the following calculation. Pump ratio x GPM @ 100 psi = CFM. For a gas compressor divide CFM by 2 and for an electric compressor, divide CFM by 4. GPM is gallons per minute and CFM is air consumption in cubic feet per minute.
