Need help identifying air compressor motor (information from plate provided)
I have a sears compressor, with what appears to be an aftermarket pump and motor. I'm trying to figure out what HP my motor is. Here is everything I can interpret from the motor plate:
I tried doing a few searches through Emmerson's eCatalog, but didn't have any luck.
BTW, what size breaker should I use if the motor pulls 21A?

Ever hear of Google? Just type the model number in and you get a bunch of returns.

I would put it somewhere between 4 and 5 TRUE hp. The formula is current x voltage/746, but these motors are usually only 80% efficient, so 21x220/746x0.8 = 4.9. Use a 30 amp breaker and since the SF is 1.0, try not to overload the motor.
