Capacitor Start – Induction run Single Phase Motor
Capacitor Start – Induction run Single Phase Motor
- The phase difference between main winding and starting winding is achieved by introducing an electrolyte capacitor is in series with starting winding.
- The capacitor is electrolyte type. When the speed of the motor is increased 70 to 80% of full load speed, the centrifugal switch open and starting winding is cut out.
Vector diagram
- As the capacitor is in series with starting winding, its vector IS leads supply by some angle.
- The current vector IM lags the supply voltage by some angle ( < 900 ) due to high inductance of the main winding.
- The angle between current vector IS and IM is in the range of 800 to 900 which is nearly 300 in the case of Split phase motor.
Starting torque
- The starting torque is directly proportional sine of angle between starting current and main current.
T a ( Sin θ )
- The starting torque in the capacitor start – induction run motor is about 3.5 to 4 times that of full load torque.
