Washdown AC Motors

The WSS stainless steel AC motors have anti-rust coated rotor to protect against corrosion.

Jun 11th, 2013

Aw 16354 1305np Omega

They are constructed with the windings doubled-dipped and cured in polyester insulating varnish, anti-rust coated rotor to protect against corrosion, and double-lip seals plus V-ring shaft slingers, and have class F insulation. O-rings installed on the endbells help eliminate moisture, and the motors come with a pre-installed a watertight, stainless cord connector. The 3-phase industrial grade motors come in sizes from 1/3 to 2 hp and run at 3600 and 1800 rpm on 208 to 230/460 Volt power with a 1.15 service factor. They are rated for inverter duty and suitable for 50 Hz operation with 1.0 service factor. Suggested applications include water treatment, air/environmental control and machine shops. Enclosures are TEFC, 56C-face with rigid base and round body.
