What is rpm to hz?

RPM stands for revolutions per minute, while Hz stands for Hertz. RPM is a unit of measurement used to describe the speed of rotation of a device or object, whereas Hz is a unit of frequency used to describe the number of cycles per second.

In terms of converting RPM to Hz, the formula is as follows:

Hz = (RPM x Number of Poles) / 120

Where "Number of Poles" refers to the number of magnetic poles in the motor or generator. This formula is used when converting the rotational speed of a motor or generator into its electrical frequency output.

For example, if a motor is rotating at 3600 RPM with 2 poles, the Hz output can be calculated as:

Hz = (3600 x 2) / 120 = 60 Hz

Therefore, the motor will produce an electrical frequency output of 60 Hz.
