Hi guys,
We purchase a Altas Copco compressor coupled to a Siemens brand motor with nameplate data, 750 kw, 460 volt delta, 60 hz, 0.88pf, nominal efficiency 95.8% Full load Amphere(FLA)= 1100 amps, Service Factor(SF)= 1.15, SFA= 1300 Amps, RPM= 1788, Insulation Class F, Temperature rise 40 deg C
The Motor actual load or running current (continuous)
L1= 1268.2Amps,L2= 1262.3Amps,L3= 1294Amps, max recorded winding temperature = 105 deg C
Motor operates above full load current (per nameplate
data) but still within the service factor value.
We would like to seek an insight on what whould be the effect if we allow the motor to run on this condition. Is this a normal practise?
