What Is This Tool?

This online converter transforms power values measured in pound-foot per second, an Imperial unit representing mechanical work rates, into electric horsepower, a unit used to rate electric motors. It facilitates conversions needed in engineering and industrial contexts.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the power value in pound-foot per second
  • Select pound-foot/second as the input unit
  • Choose horsepower (electric) as the output unit
  • Click convert to get the equivalent power measurement
  • Review the result for equipment specification or analysis

Key Features

  • Converts power from pound-foot per second to electric horsepower accurately
  • Supports engineering and industrial unit conversion needs
  • Browser-based and easy to use
  • Useful for comparing mechanical power with electric motor ratings
  • Includes example calculations for quick reference

Examples

  • 100 Pound-foot/second equals 0.18174503 Horsepower (electric)
  • 500 Pound-foot/second equals 0.90872515 Horsepower (electric)

Common Use Cases

  • Calculating mechanical power from torque and rotational speed in US customary units
  • Estimating output power of small motors, hand tools, or shafts
  • Converting legacy Imperial power data to electric horsepower for comparison
  • Preparing motor nameplates and specifications for electric equipment
  • Sizing electrical systems such as controllers and power supplies

Tips & Best Practices

  • Ensure correct input units are used for accurate conversion
  • Use this conversion mainly for electric motor power comparisons
  • Be cautious when interpreting legacy data to maintain context
  • Verify the unit definitions match your application environment
  • Cross-check converted values for specification and invoice prep

Limitations

  • Pound-foot per second is an approximate mechanical unit; electric horsepower is precisely defined
  • Conversion accuracy depends on context and may not suit all applications
  • Not recommended for non-electric power systems or alternative horsepower definitions

Frequently Asked Questions

What does pound-foot per second measure?
It measures mechanical power as work done per second in Imperial units, representing torque multiplied by rotational speed.

How is electric horsepower defined?
Electric horsepower is defined as exactly 746 watts, used to rate power of electric motors and drives.

Why convert pound-foot/second to electric horsepower?
To express mechanical power in terms of electric motor ratings for equipment specification, comparison, and electrical system sizing.

Key Terminology

Pound-foot/second
An Imperial unit of power representing one pound-force foot of work performed per second, used to measure mechanical power.
Horsepower (electric)
A unit of power exactly equal to 746 watts, used for rating electric motors and related equipment.
