About this product
This is a 5 HP three-phase electric air compressor motor designed for heavy-duty applications, operating at 1750 RPM. It runs on 208-230/460V and features a 184 IEC frame size. The motor has a base-mounted design with a keyed shaft and offers reversible rotation. It comes in black and is marketed as a direct replacement, backed by a 2-year manufacturer warranty.
Our take
If you're running a commercial or industrial compressor that requires three-phase power, this 5 HP motor is a strong contender. The 208-230/460V flexibility is excellent for various electrical setups, and the 1750 RPM speed is ideal for consistent air delivery. The reversible rotation offers installation versatility. However, it's important to note the 'Not Protected' against liquids specification; this motor definitely needs to be installed in a dry, controlled environment to prevent damage. The 2-year warranty provides good assurance.
