@@tripplefives1402 The motor in the video appears to be a 3-phase induction motor meaning there are no brushes or capacitors. The biggest effect to the grid a motor like that will cause, is a reduction of power factor, which can be corrected by installing power factor correction capacitors on the grid or within the facility itself. The speed of the motor is dependent on the frequency used to drive the motor, not like a universal motor inside your vacuum cleaner/shop vac, which uses brushes and makes a bunch of sparks and runs at a much higher speed.

Rennie Ash you realize it is a shop? In places like that, and I mean shop, and manufacturing facilities that have drives this large. The average employee probably wouldn’t be back there.
I use to to rebuild/repair/refurbish and test these for a living. All the way from 120V 1/2hp up to 480V motors like this one. This one is about a quarter the size of the biggest one I've worked on. You have to have A LOT of respect for these, or they can kill or maim you in half a second.
The one in this video looks to be about 100 Horsepower give or take. I couldn't imagine the size of wires they would need if something like this was for 240 volt or even 208. I've seen 50 HP motors wired for 208 volts with wires the size of half your hand for only phase phase
You are being too much. This motor was actually used in his smallest smartphone in his pocket for the vibration function. But he found it too underpowered so he switched to a 200,000 HP truck motor to finally met his minimum vibration intensity need.
Yes it's read in RMS, where do you see peak or average anywhere? Also RMS is 0.707 of peak. Not sure if this motor is driven at a full 60hz. No reason an unloaded motor like this should pull more than about 10 amps at full voltage. Maybe the frequency is still way low.
Cant generate electricity with these easy. That would need sophisticated electronics to once build magnetism before generator startup. Only motors with permanent or external excitement can easily generate Electricity.
In the UK, it is common for someone to stand behind you without you knowing and dropping a plate of metal on the floor just as you press the start button.
This is a fairly small motor in the industrial world. Especially when machine main drive motors are concerned. I work in an aluminum rod mill and we have some 600 horse dc motors. They are the biggest motors I've ever seen personally.
This motor reminds me of the big electric motors used to power pulper blades in the bottom of a large pupling vessel on a paper ill I used to contract into. The vessels held about 40,000 gallons of water (Maybe more?) and cardboard (Kraft Liner Straw) was dropped in once the water was spinning about a third of the way up. The winding up noise was incredible! The pulper reduced the cardboard to individual fibres in no time. Impressive stuff.
I actually was an intern at a company that used an engine that looked similair in a fan. I was close to it when it was spinning. And you can clearly feel it spinning from a meter distance.
john smith but you can't beat a comment about how the only thing someone loves more than a comment about loving comments about comments is a comment about comments on a comment's comment
I have 2 125HP motors at work and they're half this thing's size. I believe no load current should be around 40% of FLA which would put this thing around 350 - 400 HP. For size comparison a 500 HP motor (Frame 586/7) is around 60" long to the end of the shaft and 30" high... and $35,000.
@Kevin Counihan don't forget that a starting motor leads to an amps surge of 5-8 times the nominal amps, I thought i heard the guy say the insane amount of 850 start up amps. But didn't understand him very well but it checks out with the 5-8 times the start up surge. Sure as hell is a big motor
Was playing with bigger than that when I was 19 and working at Liberty Steel Galati :) Some were used on massive cranes, some to laminate a 20 ton cold chunk of steel. Had to go to gym to be able to connect cables lol. Good times
Duncan Wilde Connect the output to a small power transistor and that transistor to a relay and that relay to a large contactor that is capable of switching the power required for this motor.
Looks a lot like the motors in my countries subway but twice as big. Our motors take a maximum of 750v and 6000 amps from the third rail but i think around 460v AC converted in to 3 phase. Also around 125kw of power.
Can you imagine that unmounted monster powering up without a VFD or some form of soft start? Images of all those little DC motors that jumped off the table when operationally tested with a battery come to mind...
BluntForceTrauma I think it would be impossible to start something like this “instantaneously” (of course not truly instantaneous). Too much mass to spin up fast.
@@literoadie3502 It always depends on the current. I would not feel myself safe around it like this. If something bad happens in the winding, or in the PSU, the braking torque could spin this thing through the floor.
