Century Motors H887L Motor

The Century Motors H887L is a robust 3HP 3-Phase general purpose motor engineered for high-demand commercial and industrial applications. Operating at a nominal 1750 RPM, this NEMA 56HZ frame motor is designed for a 200-230/460V dual-voltage configuration, pulling 9.0-8.8/4.4 Amps at full load. Its Open Drip Proof (ODP) enclosure provides optimal airflow for internal cooling while protecting against moisture dripping from above, making it ideal for clean, indoor environments. This model features a rigid base mount and a standard 7/8" x 2 5/16" shaft to ensure a stable, precise connection for belt-driven or direct-drive systems. With ball bearing construction and reversible rotation capabilities, the H887L offers the mechanical flexibility required for HVAC compressor motors and heavy-duty pump motor replacements. This Century H887L 3HP motor is built for continuous duty performance where reliability and energy efficient three-phase motor operation are paramount for system uptime.

Key Benefits

• Optimized Heat Dissipation: The Open Drip Proof design ensures the windings stay cool during extended run times, extending the service life of the 56HZ frame motor.
• Installation Versatility: Features reversible rotation and a rigid base, allowing it to adapt to various mounting configurations and load requirements.
• Precision Engineering: Equipped with high-grade ball bearings that minimize friction and handle radial loads effectively in industrial motor applications.
• Dual Voltage Compatibility: Supports 230/460V 3-phase power, providing flexibility for different electrical service setups in commercial facilities.

Common Questions

Is the Century H887L suitable for outdoor use?
This motor features an ODP enclosure, which means it is designed for indoor applications or protected environments. For outdoor or high-moisture areas, a TEFC (Totally Enclosed Fan Coled) motor is typically recommended.

Can I use this motor on a single-phase power supply?
No, the H887L is a three-phase HVAC motor. It requires a 3-phase power source or a properly sized Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) to operate.

What are the specific dimensions of the 56HZ frame?
The "Z" suffix indicates a non-standard shaft. This motor utilized a heavy-duty 7/8 inch diameter shaft, which is larger than a standard 56-frame 5/8 inch shaft, providing higher torque capacity and durability.
