Specifications:
A 1.5 HP (1.1 kW), 4-pole, single-phase induction motor operating at approximately 1720–1725 RPM (on a 60 Hz supply) is a standard medium-duty motor used for air compressors, pumps, farm equipment, and heavy shop tools.
- *** Needs Capacitor ****Power Output: 1.5 HP (1.1 kW)
- Speed: ~1720 to 1725 RPM (synchronous speed is 1800 RPM at 60 Hz; slip accounts for the 1720–1725 RPM actual output)
- Phase: Single-phase (1-Phase)
- Voltage: 115V / 230V (or dual-voltage 115/208-230V)
- Full Load Current: Typically around 7.5 to 10.4 Amps at 230V (and roughly 13 to 15 Amps at 115V, depending on design and efficiency)
- Starting / Running Type: Usually Capacitor-Start / Capacitor-Run (CSCR) or Capacitor-Start to provide high starting torque for loaded machinery.
- Frame Size: Commonly 56, 56C, or 90L frames (with a standard 5/8″ keyed shaft for 56/56C frames
