Preferably, refer the application to our technical office to calculate the power requirement. Alternatively use the formula in our catalogue. Be generous when selecting the motor. Temperature, stiction and imperfect assemblies can cause greater than calculated loads to be encountered. This is particularly true for multi jack installations. Size the motor based on the dynamic load. Obvious but often missed.
