Frequently Asked Questions
What speed does a 2 pole motor run at on a 50 Hz supply?
A 2 pole motor has a synchronous speed of 3000 rpm at 50 Hz. The actual running speed under load will be slightly lower due to slip.
What does B5 mounting mean?
B5 indicates an IEC flange mounted configuration without feet, allowing the motor to be bolted directly to a gearbox, pump or driven machine.
Is the TECO C2-18-2B5 suitable for continuous industrial duty?
Yes. This motor is designed for S1 continuous duty and is intended for long term operation at rated load in industrial environments.
