RE: calculating bps for sync rsg



Jon,

Multiply the RPM by the electrodes (1725*4)
This gives you 6900 breaks per minute
Now divide by 60 to get breaks per second (6900/60)
This gives you 115 BPS

BTW-This is an asynchronous rotary (since it is not a multiple of the 60hz
line frequency)

Hope this helps,
Brian Basura

Hello,
 This may be a dumb question, but please bear with me, I'm kinda new at
this.
How do I calculate the break rate of my synchronous rotary gap? My rotor has
4
contacts. it is a 1/2 hp motor, 1725 rpm(I think), 60hz. Whatever it is, it
seems to work well.
 
 
Thanks in advance,
 Jon
