3kW 6 Pole IE3 (1000rpm) Teco AC Motor, IE3, B3 Foot Mounted, Aluminium, Frame D132S
MPN: I2----3-6B3
Alt. SKU: I236B3
Why Choose the TECO I2-3-6B3 AC Induction Motor?
The TECO I2-3-6B3 is a three phase AC induction motor engineered for reliable continuous duty operation in industrial environments. With a rated output of 3 kW and a 6 pole configuration, it is designed for lower speed, higher torque applications, typically operating at around 950–1000 rpm on a 50 Hz supply. The B3 foot mounting arrangement allows secure installation onto machine bases and structural frames.
As part of the TECO I2 motor range, this unit is typically specified for durability, stable thermal performance and long service life. Motors in this class are commonly manufactured in totally enclosed fan cooled construction for protection against dust and industrial contaminants. Always confirm exact electrical ratings, efficiency class and frame size from the supplied nameplate.
