10.1 Conversion formulas
RPS = F / (P / 2) RPS =RPM / 60
RPM = (F x 60) / (P / 2) RPM = RPS x 60
F = RPS x (P / 2) F = (RPM x (P / 2)) / 60
Key:
F frequency (Hz) of the voltage and current applied to motor
RPS revolution per second of motor shaft (rotor)
RPM revolution per minute of motor shaft (rotor)
P number of poles of motor (always an even number)
P/2 number of polar couples of motor
Nota: In AC motors (asyncronous induction motor) RPS and RPM
derived from previous formulas are not the actual value because of the
intrinsic rotor “slip”. The actual values is always lower than calculated RPS and
RPM values, and the di erence increase with the load. The RPM actual value is
motor dependent and it is usually speci ed by manufacturer at nominal load.
