Because its designed to operate at 230-460, not 120-208.
The formula you are looking for is 460 divided by the square root of 3 (1.73).
No you need a Roto Phase
There is no household current with which you can power a 460 volt motor.Normal US household power is 120/240VAC split phase. (Other countries have different configurations, but the answer remains the same.) Without a transformer, and a substantial power flow, you are not going to develop the voltage necessary to run a 460 volt motor. Even if you could generate that voltage, you still only have one phase available, and most 460 volt motors require three phase power.You could do this with an inverter, or a motor-generator set, but to be blunt, you are asking about a commercial application, not a household application.
Try rewriting your question so that it makes sense.
It's possible, but not at all economic. Usually the 240V (sure it's not 277?) has been stepped down from 480V service already. Sounds like this is a commercial application. 480 is rare in residential, but quite common in commercial. If you need 480, you'll need to get ahead of the step down transformer.AnswerYou cannot obtain a three-phase supply from a single-phase supply.
Model 460 is a 20 guage
The range of working voltages for a piece of equipment should be marked on the cover. If it says 400-460 v or a wider range, the answer is yes. Otherwise the answer is no.
Yes but they might run slower. A synchronous motor would definitely run at 5/6 of the speed. Also the motor might heat up because of increased power loss in the iron core due to hysteresis.
100-650 USD
500-700 usd
If 50 hz is applied instead of 60 Hz, the speed of the motor will reduce by 10 hz equivalent. If you still want to keep the output speed equivalent to 60 Hz, you will have to use suitable gear box or so, to increase the speed to 60 hz equivalent.
