I have a question about operating a 3 phase motor at a higher frequency that its placard frequency.
I am running a 1 1/2 HP motor from a VFD. Is it possible/wise to run it at a higher speed by increasing the frequency output of the VFD? It mostly runs at low load. I have seen that others do this. What ramifications might this pose?
This is the motor placard.
Thanks
