Interesting that an employee of Siemens Energy and Automation is blasting a direct competitor....Hmmmm
215Z
Baldor makes a true 215 not a T not a U but a 215
the 215 is a smaller overall shaft. Go to the Baldor site and you can find drawings for both styles.
the problem is the Z - it...
Yes "app" backwards. The drive is only going to put out up to what it gets as far as V and I some how flipped the 2 Vs. It was after midnight though %-)
I am changing my vote to the transformer[2thumbsup]
Skip the rewind..
The transformer will enable the motor to remain a stock version...
UL508 is correct. The UL Type E also means that the build up of parts (manual motor protector, contactor, OL and Short Circuit signaling block etc) have all been tested and certified per UL to be self-protected. A type F build up might be exactly the same as a Type E but it is not tested and...
To add on to the above, I think you are bouncing between the Type F and Type E. The key difference is the E has to be able to identify the trip as either Overload or Short Circuit.
Use a drive. Most drives have a fairly wide voltage range (380-460V some rated to full 480V) with a typical +/- 10% some are even at -15% V based on the low side of the voltage range. Both WEG and GE offer drives capable of 380-480V at +10% and -15%. The WEG is a CFW08 model and the GE...
I just had a guy from WEG in here for a dog and pony show on their control line including Type E and Type F offerings (They bought the old AEG line and now produce it themselves) here is the breakout:
A - Type A combination motor controller consisting of a disconnect switch, fuses, motor...
That is quite true. The temp UOM needs to be identified.
Now, at 208V the motor might be rated 230V able to be run down to 208V but at 208V the voltage might be dipping to a point beyond the motor's ability to operate properly due to over saturation of the rotor...(see aolalde's response)
If...
