Surely that's going to come down to rating of fan, length of run, install method etc?

Need to know more than the information provided and if you don’t already know not sure you should be installing it in the first place.

As the above reply said, need the type of system installed back to the dno/fan power rating/distance between ccu and fan etc

Possibly 3P that isn't it ? Not too familiar with them
 
From the capacitors I would guess single phase.

It’s a single phase 1500w motor. It has a 6 amps speed controller, distance from controller to fan about 3-4 meters .
