2.5 MATCHING MOTOR OUTPUT (SPEED) 
TO LOAD – OIL PUMP/MOTOR LOCATION 

 

It is recommended T30-M Motors be installed to 
operate at an RPM between 1200-1750 RPM. 

  Where possible, a hand held tachometer 

should be used to double-check Motor/pump 
output speeds.  

 

  Motor supply pressure should be set at the 

minimum pressure required

 to insure the 

Motor runs the speed/load required by the 
pump application.  

 

  Depending on where indicated/monitored, oil 

pressure may not indicate excessive motor 
speed since an oil bypass (relief valve) may 
reduce this to a indicate a “normal” oil 
pressure reading by the operator. 

 

  Oil Pump discharge pressure (taken at the oil 

pump discharge port) is the best indicator of 
pump speed.  Follow the pump manufacturer’s 
recommendations.   

 

 
Do not apply or select the maximum Motor supply 
pressure by default, (e.g. “same as” fuel gas pressure 
or starting air pressure on the package).  Motor speed 
& output must account for: 
 

 

Varying starting or fuel gas pressures.  

  Varying oil pump models, oil viscosity, oil 

temperatures (loads). 

 

Varying site conditions (temperatures, etc…). 

 

Varying oil pressure & cycle times required. 

 

2.6 ADJUSTING MOTOR OUTPUT SPEED 
 

 

Set multi-meter to measure frequency (Hz). 

  Connect the two multi-meter leads to the 

speed pick-up connector attached to the air 
motor. 

  To identify the speed on the multi-meter, 

multiply the frequency times 3 as shown on 
the tag affixed to the air motor. 

 

Apply the supply pressure to the motor and 
slowly increase the pressure until the desired 
output speed is achieved. DO NOT EXCEED 
1750 RPM.  

 

 

 

NOTE 

Motor over-speed:  

Where motor & pump output 

pressure or RPM, exceed that needed for an 
application:  

Reducing Motor supply pressure; 

or 

Increasing size of oil pump supply/discharge lines,  

will correct this condition.

Motor at 

dynamic supply pressures greater than the pressure 
rating on the nameplate.  This dynamic pressure is 
measured at Motor inlet while Motor is running. 

 

  Static (non-flowing) supply pressure will 

always be higher than the operating (dynamic) 
pressure.  The maximum pressure limit (proof 
pressure) that the TDI

housings may be subjected to is   600 PSIG 
(42 BAR).  

 

 

Where system static pressure may exceed the 
600 PSIG (42 BAR) limit, in addition to 
pressure reducing device, a pressure relief 
valve (set below 600 PSIG [42 BAR], should 
be used.
