    Hi,
    I want to know what is the power required for SM52-4p low pile. Here we have 440 volts 3 phase. what will be the power of the machine in this voltage.

    Thanks

    Likely the machine will require 480v +/- 5%. This is just over 455v at the low point. You will need to get a transformer to boost that voltage back up to 480v. I have seen a few SM52 machines also run on 230v. Of course this again would require a transformer.

    The power required for the current version of the SM52-4P is 24.5 kW at 0.85 pf.
    Be aware that Heidelberg supplies this press at various voltages depending on the market for which it is intended. The standard for this press in the US market is 230 volts, 3 phase, 60 Hz, fused at 100 amps (at 440 volts, this would be fused at 50 amps).
    You will need to supply the press with the proper voltage as designated on the nameplate of the press using a step-up or step-down transformer as appropriate for your situation.
    I hope this helps.
