Evaporator Power Consumption

The following is actual loaded fan operation data collected by AC Electric at our request to determine actual power consumption.  This test utilized a chart recorder and the following summary is from information taken from that chart recorder.

Listed below is record 51 as an average record.

 AMP   KW   POWER FACTOR  VOLT   KVA CODE  EFFICIENCY @ OPERATING

TO FIND DIRECT CURRENT SINGLE PHASE THREE PHASE
HORSEPOWER E x I x EFF/746 E x I x EFF x PF/746 1.732 x E x I Xeff x PF / 746
CURRENT 746 x HP/E Xeff 746 x HP/ E x EFF x PF 746 x HP/ 1.732 x E x EFF XPF
EFFICIENCY 746 X hp/E x I 746 x HP/E x I x PF 746 x HP/1.732 x E X I XPF
POWER FACTOR ---------- Input watts/ E x I Input Watts/1.732 x E x I

E = Volts                                              I = Amperes

EFF = Efficiency (decimal)                    PF = Power Factor (decimal)

HP = Horsepower

Utilizing these formulas allow us to determine the operational cost of running our motor which has a plated horse power of 40 but actually operates at 23 horsepower as you shown on the following page, using our chart recorder figures to do the calculations.
