The OME series of general purpose ac motors is industrial-duty, three-phase, 208-230/460 V available in 1-5 hp and speeds of 3600, 1800 and 900 RPM. These totally enclosed fan-cooled T-frame motors have cast iron frames with a ribbed design for maximum cooling and feature class F insulation. They are inverter-duty capable with a 5:1 speed turndown for variable torque applications and a 2:1 speed turndown for constant torque use. All motors are manufactured in high quality ISO9001-certified facilities using premium-grade quality materials and manufacturing processes. Every motor is electrically tested in subassembly production and again after final assembly.
