On a motor older than 10 yr or less than 1 hp, however, the motor is usually replaced. Since the cost of repair often exceeds the cost of a new one, small motors less than 1 / 8 hp are also typically ...

Troubleshooting single-phase compressors requires a technician to have a proficient understanding of capacitors. The run capacitor is one of two types of capacitors that could be found on single-phase ...

The CSD oil switches from Trinetics are single-phase, motor-operated capacitor switches designed for 15kV and 25kV, and also for 35kV grounded wye distribution applications. Meets or Exceeds IEEE/ANSI ...

Many single-phase compressors require a start capacitor to assist in starting the motor. These capacitors will occasionally fail, causing a compressor to fail to start. Overheating is a primary cause ...

Single-phase motors, adjustable-speed drives (ASDs), and power factor (PF) correction applications often depend on capacitors to operate properly. This article explains how to test these critical ...

Built on the Ultra Series solid dielectric vacuum switch platform, Trinetics UltraVac single-phase capacitor switches provide dielectric strength in a compact design. ... The switches are available ...

Single-phase ac motors are as ubiquitous as they are useful -- serving as prime power sources for a seemingly limitless array of small-horsepower applications in industry and home.
