This 1/2 horsepower DC motor is designed for harsh washdown environments, featuring a 300-series stainless steel exterior and Viton-sealed components for superior chemical resistance. Its laser-etched nameplate and O-ring sealed endshields ensure a clean and dry design. With double-lip shaft seals and removable breathers, this motor is ideal for applications in food processing, pharmaceutical, and chemical manufacturing, where cleanliness and reliability are crucial. Its high starting torque and linear speed/torque characteristics make it suitable for hard-to-start loads, and its certifications from UL, CSA, and BISSC ensure compliance with industry standards.

Washdown dc motor - 1/2 hp - us56c frame - 180v this 1/2 horsepower 1750 rpm motor is made of 300-series stainless steel exterior components for long lasting durability and dependability. Nothing on the exterior of the motor is painted or coated in any way. All sealing components are viton® for superior chemical resistance. Full fact nameplate is laser etched on the motor frame no separately attached nameplate to trap dirt or contaminants. Endshields are o-ring sealed to the frame. Double lip shaft seals on both ends. Removable hydrophobic breathers in opposite shaft endbell and conduit box equalize pressure without allowing moisture to enter. Exterior fastener use minimized reducing the number of entry points for moisture. There are no holes in the frame for attaching a nameplate. Bearing lock screws are located inside the motor and the conduit box mounted screws have been eliminated. Double-sealed bearings are pre-lubricated with moisture-resistant high-temperature grease for long life. Interior coatings applied to armature and frame/magnet assemble protect against corrosion. Conduit box mounting system provides optimum sealing. Linear speed/torque characteristics over entire speed range. Armature windings are immersed and cured in a polyester insulating varnish for extra moisture-resistance. High starting torque for hard to start loads. Ul listed. Csa certified. Bissc certified for bakery applications.
