ABSTRACT:
Method and apparatus for matching the power output of a multitorque motor with the torque requirement of a connected load device. The stator windings of the motor are automatically connected in various different configurations to provide the optimum motor torque demanded by a connected load device which imposes varying load conditions on the motor. A novel control circuitry is connected between the motor starter and the motor stators. The control measures the power drawn by the motor stators and selects the most optimum configuration thereof which meets the changing torque requirements of the connected load device. This selection of optimum stator winding configurations commensurate with torque demand operates the motor in the lowest possible torque mode, which is considered the best electrical and mechanical operation of the motor and connected load device.
