About this product
This BFO 1HP Air Compressor Motor is an induction/asynchronous electric motor designed for three-phase AC power. It operates at 1725 RPM and 60Hz, with voltage options of 230V/460V. The motor features a TEFC (Totally Enclosed Fan Cooled) enclosure, a 56C frame, and a 5/8-inch shaft. It's base-mounted, reversible, and comes with an Insulation Class F rating.
Our take
For those running a shop with three-phase power, this 1HP BFO motor looks like a solid, versatile choice for an air compressor or other industrial applications. The TEFC enclosure is a significant plus, offering excellent protection against dust and moisture, which helps with longevity. I also appreciate the dual voltage capability (230V/460V) and the reversible rotation, providing flexibility during installation. The 56C frame and 5/8-inch shaft are fairly standard, making it a good replacement option. Insulation Class F further adds to its robust design.
