Baldor Electric L3403 1/4 hp 1800 RPM 115/230V machinery motor

SKU CH-HMJD-FGX5W

Single-phase capacitor-start/run motor delivers 1/4 hp at 1,800 rpm with dual-voltage 115/230 V operation and 1.35 service factor

  • Product weight20
  • Product typeClosed Base
  • Main materialHAWA
  • 1/4 hp output powers light-duty machinery
  • Capacitor-start/run design gives strong starting torque
  • Dual 115/230 V AC voltage fits common supplies
  • Totally enclosed fan-cooled enclosure resists dust and moisture
  • Continuous duty rating with 1.35 service factor handles sustained loads

Product Identity

This Baldor-Reliance L3403 is a single-phase, capacitor-start/run general purpose motor rated at 1/4 hp and 800 RPM nameplate speed. It operates on 115/230V AC at 60 Hz and is built in a 48 frame with a totally enclosed fan cooled enclosure.

Suitability

The motor suits continuous-duty industrial or agricultural equipment requiring reversible CW/CCW rotation and a 1.35 service factor at up to 40 Degrees C ambient. It is not usable at 200V, so installations limited to that voltage should look elsewhere.

Capacity and Headroom

At full load the motor draws 2.5 A and delivers its rated output with 35 percent headroom from the service factor. Operation above 40 Degrees C ambient or on 200V supply exceeds the design limits and will cause the unit to run out of thermal or voltage margin.

Questions about this item

Does the 48-frame mounting match the base pattern on my existing equipment?

The motor uses a standard NEMA 48 frame with a closed base, so it bolts to any matching 48-frame footprint.

Will the 1.35 service factor handle the same load as the older 1.0-factor motor I am replacing?

Yes, the 1.35 service factor provides 35 percent extra capacity over a 1.0-factor unit at the same 1/4 hp rating.

How do I confirm the motor is running at the correct 1800 RPM after wiring it for 230 V?

Measure shaft speed with a tachometer; it should read 1800 RPM at 60 Hz with the nameplate voltage applied.
