A particular 3 phase induction motor has a LRA of 100 amps What is its approximate starting current?

LRA (locked rotor amperage) is not considered. Starting current for a motor is usually in the neighbourhood of 300% of the FLA (full load amps). The FLA is taken from the motor's nameplate.

How do you calculate LRA to BTU?

Well, honey, to calculate Locked Rotor Amps (LRA) to British Thermal Units (BTU), you'll need to first convert LRA to watts by multiplying it by the voltage. Then, divide the result by 3.41 to get the BTU per hour. It's as simple as that, darling.


What is the ratio between locked rotor current and full load current?

Each motor has a published manufacturer Lock Rotor Amperage (LRA) rating that is used to obtain this ratio. If a manufacturer otained a reading of 100A while bench testing their motor (equipment) at full load, if the motor FLA (Full Load Anps) is 50 amps, the raito LRA to FLA is 2 to 1 or 200%.


LRA is 134 AMPS. what size breaker should be used?

LRA (locked rotor amps) is not used to calculate the breaker size. Breaker's are used to protect the size of the conductor that is connected to it. Motor calculations are based on the motor's FLA (full load amps).Conductor size is 125% of the motor's FLA.Breaker size is 250% of the motor's FLA.This is the only occasion when the breaker is sized larger that the conductors maximum amperage rating. This is due to the motor drawing up to 300 to 600% of its FLA when starting.If you state the motor's wattage, voltage or amperage this calculation can be calculated here.

How do calculate from HP to LRA?

To convert horsepower (HP) to full-load amperes (LRA), you can use the formula: LRA = (HP × 746) / (Voltage × √3) for three-phase systems, or LRA = (HP × 746) / Voltage for single-phase systems. Here, 746 is the conversion factor that represents the number of watts in one horsepower. Ensure you use the appropriate voltage based on your system to get an accurate LRA value.


How do you calculate LRA to tonnage in three phase?

To calculate LRA (Locked Rotor Amperes) to tonnage in a three-phase system, first determine the LRA value of the motor, usually provided on the motor nameplate. Then, use the formula: Tonnage = (LRA × Voltage × √3) / (3,517 × Efficiency × Power Factor), where the voltage is the line-to-line voltage in volts, and the efficiency and power factor are the motor's operational values. This will estimate the cooling capacity in tons based on the motor's electrical characteristics.

How do you calculate 3phase compresser lra to tonnage?

To calculate the LRA (Locked Rotor Amperage) of a three-phase compressor in terms of tonnage, you can use the formula: Tonnage = (LRA × Voltage) / (1.732 × Efficiency × 12,000). Here, 1.732 represents the square root of 3, and 12,000 is the conversion factor for BTUs to tons. Ensure you have the correct voltage and efficiency values for accurate calculations. This approach provides an estimate of the cooling capacity based on the compressor's electrical characteristics.
