- 184T frame with rigid base simplifies mounting
- Totally enclosed fan-cooled steel housing resists washdown moisture
5 hp Washdown Motor for Wet Environments
This 5 hp three-phase motor is built for washdown duty in food processing, packaging and pharmaceutical plants. Its totally enclosed fan-cooled steel frame resists high-pressure cleaning and corrosion. The 184T frame and rigid base suit horizontal mounting on conveyors, pumps and mixers.
Dual-Voltage Operation with 1.15 Service Factor
Rated for 230/460 V AC at 60/50 Hz, the motor draws 12.5 A at 230 V or 6.2 A at 460 V. A 1.15 service factor provides headroom for intermittent overloads such as start-up surges or viscous product changes. Continuous duty at 1755 RPM is sustained up to 40 °C ambient without thermal protection.
Reversible Rotation and Class F Insulation
The shaft runs clockwise or counter-clockwise to match driven equipment without rewiring. Class F insulation withstands the heat of frequent starts and stops in washdown cycles. No bundled accessories or software are included; the motor ships as a standalone unit ready for direct coupling.

Questions about this item
Will this 184T frame motor match the mounting pattern of my existing 184T equipment?
Yes, the 184T frame follows NEMA standards so the bolt-hole layout and shaft height match other 184T motors.
How can I confirm the motor is running at the correct 1755 RPM nameplate speed after installation?
Use a tachometer on the shaft; at 60 Hz it should read 1755 RPM under full load.
Does the box include a mounting base or do I need to order one separately for horizontal rigid-base installation?
The motor has a rigid base welded to the steel frame, so no separate base is required for horizontal mounting.
