FAQs
This motor is a 3-phase, 230/460 V unit with a 143TC frame and foot-mounted base. For easy retrofits, ensure the mounting footprint matches a 143TC frame and use a direct-on-line (DOL) start as specified. The C-face drive end aligns with common mechanical standards, and the TEFC enclosure is suited for dirty or humid environments, minimizing enclosure-related issues during installation.
The motor delivers 1.5 HP at 3500 r/min in a 2-pole, 60 Hz configuration. It operates on 230 V or 460 V in a three-phase system and has a service factor of 1.15. Efficiency is rated IE3 with a typical efficiency around 84%, making it a cost-effective choice for continuous-duty drives like conveyors and pumps.
Yes. The ABB 7BCEM3550T carries CSA, CSA EEV, and UR certifications, and adheres to NEMA design standards. It supports premium efficiency (IE3) and RoHS compliance, making it suitable for regulated facilities and equipment that require reliable third-party certification and energy performance.
The motor uses regreasable bearings (6205 and 6203 ball bearings) designed for longevity, with a duty rating of 60 minutes and continuous operation capability. Regular lubrication cycles extend bearing life and reduce unexpected downtime, which is critical for high-utilization lines like packaging or processing conveyors.
The supplier data indicates stock is maintained at multiple warehouses with a lead time of zero days for immediate fulfillment. This means fast availability for urgent rebuilds or new line projects, minimizing downtime during procurement and installation.
