Existing reviews of 5 hp NEMA AC Induction Motor, Single Phase 230V, ODP/TEFC
Consult single phase motor information
Will the 5hp unit still have the limitation of only being able to reduce the speed by 20% without damaging the motor? Is this dependent on how you wire it (with or without capacitors)? I assume this was meant to say "single phase motor".

Yes, for single-phase motors, only being able to reduce the speed by 20% without damaging the motor (running frequency above about 40HZ).
This depends on how you wire it (with or without capacitors), and is related to the characteristics of single-phase motors: When the operating frequency of single-phase motors does Not reach about 45HZ, the internal centrifugal switch is Not disengaged, and the starting capacitor will always run and cause heat.
If you want to run with speed regulation in the range of 0-60HZ, we suggest that you replace the three-phase motor better.
