3kW 2 Pole IE3 (3000rpm) Teco AC Motor, IE3, B5 Flange Mounted, Cast Iron, Frame D100L
MPN: C2----3-2B5
Alt. SKU: C232B5
Why Choose the TECO C2-3-2B5 AC Motor?
The TECO C2-3-2B5 is a robust three phase squirrel cage induction motor designed for industrial duty where reliable, high-efficiency performance is required in a compact flange-mounted package. This model features an IEC B5 flange mounting arrangement, making it ideal for direct coupling to gearboxes, pumps, blowers and other driven equipment without the need for base mounting.
The C2-3 designation indicates a motor in the TECO standard C2 series with a rated power around the 3 kW class (exact rating should be confirmed with manufacturer documentation). The 2 pole configuration delivers a nominal synchronous speed of approximately 3000 rpm at 50 Hz, suitable for high speed applications where compact design and direct drive are advantageous.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does B5 flange mounting mean?
B5 indicates an IEC flange-mounted motor without feet. This allows the motor to be bolted directly to driven equipment such as gearboxes or pump housings.
What speed does a 2 pole motor run at?
On a 50 Hz supply, a 2 pole motor has a synchronous speed of around 3000 rpm, with actual running speed slightly lower under load due to slip.
Is this motor suitable for continuous industrial operation?
Yes. Motors of this type are typically rated for continuous S1 duty and designed for reliable industrial use.
