Actual volts and amperage must be obtained with the fan running and the specified rate of water flowing over the tower after the motor and Geareducer have reached operating temperature (approximately 30 minutes of operation).

Measurements taken on motors operating with Variable Fre-

Notequency Drive controls may read up to 15% high from errors in measuring the approximated sine wave. Instruments capable of measuring a squared off wave form accurately should be used for measuring power in this situation.

Do not exceed 30 sec/hour total motor starting time as motor may overheat.
