1.9 Computing the Motor Efficiency and Total
Efficiency
From the active power that this instrument measures and the motor output determined
in section 1.7, this instrument can compute the motor efficiency (the ratio of the motor
output versus the power consumption by the motor) and total efficiency.
*
Set the
equation according to the procedures given in section 5.7 or 5.4 in the User’s Manual IM
WT3001E-01EN. Computation examples are indicated below.
* The ratio of the motor output versus the power consumption by the motor as well
as the converter through which power is fed to the motor.
