FAQs
The CEWDBM3538 is a 3-phase motor configured for 208-230/460 V, 60 Hz operation with direct-on-line starting, simplifying integration with standard industrial controls and cabling. Its 56C frame and 0.5 HP rating make it a straightforward drop-in for many conveyors and processing equipment.
It features a TENV enclosure with a white washdown finish designed to resist washdown chemicals and moisture. This combination protects internal components, reduces corrosion risk, and supports sustained uptime in sanitary manufacturing areas such as food processing and pharma packaging.
The CE mark and CSA/UR listings provide regulatory compliance across regions, while the motor’s NEMA Design B, insulation class F, and 4-pole, single-speed design support reliable operation in continuous duty environments common to packaging and material handling.
Plan for a C-Face flange with optional foot mounting and horizontal orientation to match most gearboxes and drives. Shaft diameter is 0.63 in, and the unit is designed for easy mounting and alignment, reducing retrofit risk and shortening commissioning time.
The motor delivers 0.5 HP at around 1770 r/min with a rated efficiency of 78.20% and a power factor of 0.62. It draws approximately 1.9 A at nominal load, supports continuous duty, and offers lubrication-for-life bearings, contributing to lower maintenance costs and faster payback.
