Technology / Motors / Variable Torque: A multi-speed motor used on loads whose torque requirements vary with speed as in some centrifugal pumps and blowers. The HP varies as the square of the speed. MORE
Technology / Motors / Starting Torque: The torque or twisting force delivered by a motor at the instant it is energized. Starting torque is often higher than rated running or full load torque. MORE
Technology / Motors / Full-Load Torque: That torque of a motor necessary to produce its rated horsepower at full-load speed, sometimes referred to as running torque. MORE
Technology / Motors / Braking Torque: The torque required to bring a motor down to a standstill. The term is also used to describe the torque developed by a motor during dynamic braking conditions. MORE
Technology / Motors / Pull-In Torque: The maximum constant torque which a synchronous motor will accelerate into synchronism at rated voltage and frequency. MORE
Technology / Motors / Dual Torque: Dual speed motor whose torque varies with speed (as the speed changes the horsepower remains constant). MORE
