FAQs
The 7BCEM3218T-G uses an 184TC frame with OPSB enclosure and C-Face drive-end mounting, paired with a foot-mounted base. This combination supports straightforward retrofits and new installations, enabling quick alignment with compatible couplings, belts, and drive systems while maintaining protective enclosure standards.
This is a 3-phase motor compatible with 230 V or 460 V supplies at 60 Hz, rated for 5 HP with Direct On Line starting. Rated currents are 13.2 A at 230 V and 6.6 A at 460 V, with a service factor of 1.15 and a synchronous speed of 1800 r/min, suitable for direct-drive and belt-driven equipment.
Yes. The OPSB enclosure, shaft-grounding feature, and 184TC frame support continuous-duty operation in conveyors and pumps. The motor’s 60 Hz, 4-pole design and NEMA B designation provide reliable performance, while the enclosure protects against ingress, helping maintain uptime in manufacturing lines.
The product carries CSA, CSA EEV, and UR safety certifications, with NEMA-based design considerations. These certifications support compliance with North American safety standards and facilitate acceptance in regulated industrial environments.
With premium efficiency and durable bearings (6206 Ball and 6205 Ball), the motor delivers lower energy use and extended service life. The shaft grounding and robust enclosure reduce fault risk, lowering maintenance labor and downtime, which translates to faster payback in high-demand production lines.
