Yes runs absolutely fine with no load.
The mechanical loading of the table saw could be a lot more than the compressor, causing the motor to try and work harder, thus blowing the plug top fuse, if it runs OK under no load conditions, then you have your answer.Hi all,
I’m new here so thanks in advance.
I have removed a single phase 2.2kw motor from a compressor in order to put it on a table saw.
The motor runs fine when not under load. When I connect it to the saw and start it however, it blows the 13a fuse in the plug.
I have subsequently wired it into a 3 phase starter (as that is what I had) and the same thing continues to happen with the 13a fuse.
What could I be doing wrong here?
Or is it simply a case that the motor is drawing too much power under when under load for the 13amp plug?
Thanks in advance
I believe that this must be the case. The previous motor was 3 phase 1420 rpm. I presume that this motor simply doesn’t have the umph?The mechanical loading of the table saw could be a lot more than the compressor, causing the motor to try and work harder, thus blowing the plug top fuse, if it runs OK under no load conditions, then you have your answer.
And did he change the pulley.
What was the rated rpm,of the motor you removed?
If it runs fine without the belt putting load on it then the loading is the issue.
No need, it's only a 3' blade...And did he change the pulley.
Seen a few DIY 1400/2800 mishaps,also motor swaps minus separate start/run capacitors.
Compressor may have had unloader valve,to assist starting...or saw might be that one off Laurel and Hardy,with the giant band,with associated tomfoolery
Three phase will nearly always be better.
Presuming you are cutting trees up for logs?
You have had a similar upbringing to me lol.
We had an old Fordson Major with a pulley drive .
And the local sawmill was steam driven and the sawyer lived in an old horse drawn caravan . I forget the proper name.
