Frequently Asked Questions
What speed does an 8 pole motor run at?
On a 50 Hz supply, an 8 pole motor has a synchronous speed of around 750 rpm. The actual running speed will be slightly lower under load due to slip.
What does B3 mounting mean?
B3 is an IEC foot mounted configuration where the motor is secured to a base using integrated mounting feet.
Is this motor suitable for continuous industrial use?
Yes. Motors of this type are typically rated S1 for continuous duty and designed for long term industrial operation.
