The linked motor is a two pole motor, so its synchronous speed is 3600 rpm, yet its rated speed is 1900 rpm. That is a lot of slip with the rated speed at 53% of synchronous speed. Does this not lead to some inefficiency? Is this an instance where the motor designer had to have the 1900 rpm and could not get it with a 4 pole motor whose synchronous speed is 1600 rpm, so he went with a lot of slip?
