2 hp Capacitor-Start/Run Motor
This single-phase motor delivers 2 hp at a nameplate speed of 450 rpm. It operates on 115 V or 208-230 V AC at 60 Hz, drawing 17.5 A at the lower voltage and 9.3 to 8.6 A at the higher voltages. The 145T frame and rigid base suit general-purpose industrial applications.
Dual-voltage wiring and rigid base
The motor accepts 115 V or 208-230 V supply, so installers can match the available circuit without a transformer. A 1.15 service factor provides margin for intermittent overloads. The open drip-proof enclosure requires a clean, dry environment and adequate airflow around the frame.
Continuous duty at 40 °C ambient
Rated for continuous operation in surroundings up to 40 °C, the Class B insulation manages heat during extended runs. No internal thermal protection is fitted, so external overload devices must be provided by the installer. The design is not suited for applications needing variable speed or frequent start-stop cycles.

Questions about this item
What limits continuous operation at the 1.15 service factor?
The 40 °C maximum ambient temperature is the first limit under sustained full-load running.
How loud or hot does the open drip-proof enclosure get during all-day duty?
The motor runs continuously at 3 450 RPM with no thermal protection and Class B insulation.
Which voltage supply and mounting base must already be on site for this 145T frame motor?
It requires 115 V or 208-230 V single-phase 60 Hz power and a rigid base mounting surface.
