HORSEPOWER FORMULA FOR BUCKET ELEVATORS:
1. DISCHARGE HEIGHT IN FEET X BUSHELS PER HOUR,
Divided by 33,000 gives BARE HORSEPOWER
2. Multiply Bare Horsepower x 1.25 (safety factor) to get DESIGN
HORSEPOWER.
3. This calculation is based on grain weighing 60# per bushel.
ALTERNATE HORSEPOWER FORMULA:
1. Multiply DISCHARGE HEIGHT IN FEET X POUNDS OF MATERIAL
RAISED IN 1 MINUTE. Divided by 33,000 gives BARE HORSEPOWER.
2. Multiply Bare Horsepower by 1.25 (Safety Factor) for DESIGN
HORSEPOWER.
