This general purpose motor will keep your equipment running. It contains an open drip proof motor enclosure design, which is engineered to allow good airflow while resisting the ingress of dripping water. The vents are angled to prevent water from entering the enclosure from above. The motor’s shaft also turns a cooling fan to help pull air through the motor. Use for mechanical loads, and for hard-to-start applications such as conveyors, belt-driven equipment, machine tools, and reciprocating pumps.
