Derating of Pump Motors at Higher Altitude

If I wanted to have the same service factor at altitude as at sea level, then I would have no choice but to chose a better motor. If that's not a derate, I don't know what is. PumpsOnly, Table II of that reference suggests that the temperature is allowed to decrease from 40 to 20 C when moving to 3000 m altitude, suggesting that ambient temp is correlated to output, not winding temperature.

Practical difference between 1725 and 3600 RPM motor w/

2012/9/6Pretty much any motor you buy will be physically capable of running at 3600 RPM because manufacturing economics mean that standardising as much as possible gives the lowest cost. The bearings, shaft, stator, etc will all be good to 3600 RPM, but in many cases, the electrical characteristics of the motor will limit the usable maximum speed to less than this. Get price

2017/11/27Choosing the typeface, the kermel, is much easier and, in addition, you can always copy the format, the presentation of an existing book. In any case, if you go to an editor with a book in electronic format, the editor will give you a better price than if you go to it with a handwritten text and a folder full of photographs and graphics drawn on paper.

Grinding Wheel Wobble

2020/5/24I've got a new 8" Ricon 1/2 hp slow speed grinder. The coarse wheel runs with very little wobble. However the fine wheel has what I believe is excessive wobble. Both have a small amount of runout that can be easily dressed out. I've tried Ricons procedure of turning Get price

Paddle Plans quick question

2012/4/5Bob is spot on with his comment. The idea is that the two 3mm will hold the curve by themselves. AJ on this forum did build some out of 2 x 4mm but carefully shaped the back face to remove the extra thickness near the edges to keep the blades looking light. Get price

Unisaw Bullet Motor Repair

Before that post was added to the forum thread, I first made a spring using the estimated length as noted above. The original OEM necklace is made out of an extension spring, using 3/32 .018 wire. That specific wire can be hard to find, but a very close approximation is a 1/8 .018 wire that is available from on-line sources such as McMaster-Carr (, this example was $4.00 plus Get price

Function of stator winding RTD in a motor

Squirt

During a weekend in northern Michigan during the summer of 2009, I got a chance to take a spin in a couple of wooden boats that my daughter's boyfriend had built with his dad and his brother.
