    Dear All,

    I have a requirement for Transformer..

    7.5hp Motor with 3 Phase, 415Volts, For this requirement I need a Transformer.

    Can any body suggest me required 3 Phase Transformer Capacity for the above said requirement.

     

    Thank you.

    Dear ;

     

    Fisrt, this motor is a small & standard motor, and you can run it by using any ” 3 Phases + Neutral / 415/239V “, so, why you need a transformer ?

    Please, explain more about the kind of supply that you have.

    Dear,

    We have got a requirement from customer side, more over its in Agricultural Area. Customer is preferring 3 Phase 10kVA Rating Transformer for the above mentioned hp.

    Instead of 10kVA, we wanted to supply him 16kVA for other issues.

     

    So,please reply me.

    Thank You.

    Dear ;

     

    Refer to your answer, please note that the procedure to define the Power of transformer is as follow :

    – The motor's power in ” kW ” is : 7.5 ( HP ) x 0742 = 5.5 kW

    – The needed power assuming that ” Cos φ = 0.85 ” = 5.5 / 0.85 ≈ 6.5 kVA ( if the Cos φ is different, please re-do the calculation )

    So, 10 kVA if suitable with around 50% plus than the needed power, but certainly with the standard percentages of ” Drop Voltage “.

     

    Regards.
