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. The actual operating speed is slightly lower due to slip under load.
What does B5 mounting mean?
B5 is an IEC flange mounting configuration where the motor is secured via a mounting flange directly to the driven machine.
Is this motor suitable for continuous industrial duty?
Yes. This motor type is typically rated S1 for continuous duty and is designed for long term operation in demanding industrial environments.
