guidelines, determine the converter model required for your multi-motor
load. Next, calculate your heat load
at 2 amps of 3-phase heating (@230v) per actual rotary hp. Ex: A multi-motor
load that requires a Model 215 (10hp) Rotary, plus an 18 amp heat load (18
divided by 2=9 hp) 10+9=19hp: Use Model 256 (20 hp) Rotary. |

| Pumps: Heat, A/C, Refrigeration [Hermetic compressors may
have two motor amperage designations: RLA, or Run Load Amps, and LRA, or
Locked-Rotor Amps. Divide RLA by 2.5
for hp, then use a rotary converter from load category “B”. If RLA is not stamped on the compressor,
find LRA of compressor (stamped on Compressor housing) and consult the
factory. When multiple refrigeration
compressors of the same hp are operated, increase converter size one step for
each additional compressor. Es: A
quantity of 5 hp compressors (14 amps RLA each) use a Model 215 for one,
Model 254 for 2, or a Model 256 for 3.
Please note that the minimum circuit amps required for the operated
machine is not the same as the compressor RLA.] |
