FAQs
To install, verify the 230/460 V three-phase power supply and set the motor for direct-on-line starting. Mount the unit on a level, rigid base using the 56C frame footprint, secure the C-face drive end flange, and connect the cabling to the appropriate terminals. Ensure alignment with the driven equipment and use standard fasteners and guards. Regularly check bearings and lubrication intervals per the regreasable design.
The 7BCEM3555 is a 2 HP, 3490 r/min, 3-phase motor operating at 60 Hz. It features a TEFC enclosure, 56C frame, and a 230/460 V rated voltage. The motor’s efficiency is in the IE3 Premium class, with a service factor of 1.15, and it uses 6205 and 6203 ball bearings for long life in continuous-duty scenarios.
Yes. With continuous-duty ratings, a 60‑min duty time specification, and a design optimized for reliability, this motor maintains performance under constant operation. Its TEFC enclosure protects against dust and moisture, while the 56C frame and 3‑phase, 230/460 V supply provide versatility for common plant layouts and drive configurations in conveyors and pumping systems.
The motor carries CSA, CSA EEV, and UR certifications and is RoHS compliant, meeting safety and environmental standards for North American installations. Altitude and ambient temperature ratings (up to 1000 m and 40 °C) support operation in typical industrial environments, while the B‑design insulation class (F) adds thermal reliability in demanding processes.
Regreasable bearings reduce replacement costs and downtime, while the IE3 Premium efficiency lowers energy bills over the motor’s life. The robust TEFC design minimizes downtime from dust and moisture, and the motor’s stockability in multiple warehouses accelerates uptime when replacements are needed, delivering a favorable total cost of ownership for OEMs and maintenance teams.
