Single-Phase Induction Motors

Single-Phase Induction Motors
The single-phase motor operates under the same principle as the polyphase electric motor, except that the rotating magnetic field effect produced by the stator will not exist until running rpm is reached. Since no beginning torque is offered, a design system is Single Phase Induction Motor china included to start the motor. These are the various designations:

Torque-Speed Curves of Different Single-Phase Induction Motors

Shaded-pole: Have only one main winding and no begin winding. This configuration causes a change of the used magnetic field in relationship to the rotor, creating stating torque. Applications include fans and small appliances.

Split-Phase (induction start engine)
Has two sets of stator windings. The “start” windings are positioned 90 degrees to the “run” windings and shift the magnetic field of the stator, inducing beginning torque. Applications include little grinders, small fans, and blowers.

Capacitor-Start
The most common single-phase motor found in industrial applications. It is a altered split-stage motor with a capacitor in series with the beginning winding to provide a start boost. App include small conveyors, huge blowers, pumps, and direct-drives.

Permanent-Split-Capacitor (PSC)
Uses identical main and auxiliary windings with a capacitor to supply starting torque. They are the most reliable single-phase motor because no centrifugal starting switch is required. Applications include supporters and pumps in HVAC and refrigeration industries.
