Motor selection and starting torque
Motors must be sized adequately for all expected operating conditions as start-up, pull down and
load variations quite often require significantly more horsepower than nominal design.
Motor starting torque capacity must also be considered, especially when across-the-line start is
not used. Motor starting and pull-up torque must be at least 20% greater than compressor re-
quirements at maximum expected start-up conditions. See the torque data.
Note:
Motor starting torque varies considerably from one manufacturer to another. Therefore,
make sure to obtain specific torque data for the motor used.
