    Advantages of Closed Slot Stamping vs Open Slot Stamping

    Hi Guys, Recently i came across an information that some manufacturers of Submersible Motors use Closed slot Stamping design in Higher kW ranges over the conventional Open slot stampings. The disadvantage of a closed slot stamping will be the delay in production as it may take upto couple of...

    Auto_transformer rating

    Hi Guys, I would like to to know if the calculation for dimensioning a 3 Phase Auto-transformer is same as that of a power transformer ie (Volts x Amps X 1.73)/1000 ? i am thinking of installing a 30HP,380V pump set in 220V,3Phase,AC power supply by employing a step-up auto-transformer, so...

    Submersible Pumpset Thrust Bearing Vs Check Vave

    We have a 60HP, 440V, 60Hz Submersible Pumpset installed in a borewell at 210m depth. The delivery pipe is of 6" diameter & after 15 days of operation the current of the pumping unit surged to 156A from its 95A. After dismantling the motor we found that the thrust bearing of the motor is...

    Calculating SFA

    I tried to figure out the SFA of a motor using the following formula, SFA = SF*HP/[SQRT(3)*Vll*EFF*PF] Whereas, SFA = Service factor Amps SF = Service factor SQRT(3)= 1.732 VII = line voltage EFF = Efficiency PF = Power Fator Considering SFA = 1.15*5HP / (1.732*220*0.75*0.81) = 5.75...

    cable selection

    Dear Experts i have a 5HP, 220V, 60Hz 4ïnch submersible motor whose max.current(SFA) is 19.5A. It´s coupled to a borehole submersible pump and installed at 350m with a supply cable (copper)of 10mm^2. But the actual current consumed by the motor is 23A. When contacted the supplier they informed...

    Over hanging portion

    Is there any relation between the overhanging portion(length) & efficiency or life cycle of a motor. For example an motor with a less overhanging portion will be having a better efficiency than the one with a large overhanging portion?.

    PH resistance of SS316 material

    I am curious about what will be the PH handling capacity of SS316 material. When pumps are made with SS304 manufacturers are recommending for a PH of 6.5 to 8.5. Hence what will be the PH range for SS316 material.
