When you move less air, there is less load on the motor. I do not know your layout, but if you have long lengths of vacuum piping, I would suspect leaks in your system that is causing your pump to work harder. What vacuum does your process need, and what vacuum do you operate the pump at to achieve the neede vacuum at the process?

we are using flexible hose pipe ( 3 mtr long ) in vaccume pipe and total length of vaccume pipe is 5 mtr. Flexible hose pipe is the requirement of our process we can not replace it with fixed one. the vaccume reqirement of our process is - 20 to -25 psi and we are achiving it even after throttling vaccume inlet valve.
Double check the units of measurement on your vacuum gage! Maybe it in inches Hg or H20?
Check the pipe to hose connection for air leaks.
If the system works with a throttled valve, you have solved your problem.

vaccume pump were tripping at 25 amp to avoid triping we have to reduce the load that is why we adjusted vaccune inlet valve. And after adjustment we checked vaccume and it was within the range.But i want to know if this will create some problem in future or not.
