- Durable Construction: Features rolled steel frame and sealed ball bearings for extended service life in high-cycle fan and blower applications.
- Installation Flexibility: The reversible rotation feature allows technicians to match existing fan pitch and airflow requirements on-site.
Is the OCA3074 compatible with variable frequency drives (VFDs)?
While this motor is designed for constant speed 1725 RPM operation, it is a standard three-phase induction motor; however, always verify the service factor of 1.15 and insulation class limits when considering inverter use.
Can this motor be used in outdoor condensing units?
This model has an Open Drip Proof (ODP) rating. It is intended for indoor or protected environments where it is shielded from direct rain and excessive moisture to prevent internal water damage.
What are the exact shaft dimensions for pulley alignment?
The motor is equipped with a 5/8 inch diameter shaft that is 1 15/16 inches long, providing ample surface area for secure pulley or blower wheel attachment.
