  • Use 5hp compressor motor, 220AC - see Electric Motors, 3450 running RPM
  • Calculations - from Hydraulic Calculations- have hp to drive a pump = PSI*GPM/1714 => GPM=hp*1714/PSI=5*1714/3000=2.86 gal
  • In order to not burn out motor - overload protection on motor? Yes, compressor motors typically have it.
  • Pump to get - [1] but cw or ccw? Motor is CCW, so pump must be CW.
