Baldor-Reliance lists it as a \u003cstrong\u003e3628M\u003c\/strong\u003e motor with \u003cstrong\u003eNEMA Design B\u003c\/strong\u003e torque characteristics, \u003cstrong\u003eClass F insulation\u003c\/strong\u003e, a \u003cstrong\u003e1.15 service factor\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003e40°C ambient continuous duty\u003c\/strong\u003e. The nameplate shows \u003cstrong\u003e8.2 A at 230 V\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003e4.1 A at 460 V\u003c\/strong\u003e, a \u003cstrong\u003eNEMA nominal efficiency of 89.5%\u003c\/strong\u003e, a \u003cstrong\u003epower factor of 77\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eKVA code K\u003c\/strong\u003e. As a four-pole motor on 60 Hz power it has a \u003cstrong\u003esynchronous speed of 1800 RPM\u003c\/strong\u003e and runs at about \u003cstrong\u003e1760 RPM\u003c\/strong\u003e under load, which is the usual speed for belt-driven fans, blowers and pumps on commercial HVAC and process equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMechanical and electrical details.\u003c\/strong\u003e The shaft is \u003cstrong\u003e0.875 inch\u003c\/strong\u003e in diameter with the extension at the \u003cstrong\u003epulley end\u003c\/strong\u003e, and the motor has \u003cstrong\u003ereversible rotation\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eF1 mounting\u003c\/strong\u003e on a standard NEMA foot base. It carries \u003cstrong\u003eball bearings\u003c\/strong\u003e — \u003cstrong\u003e6206\u003c\/strong\u003e at the drive end and \u003cstrong\u003e6205\u003c\/strong\u003e at the opposite end — packed with \u003cstrong\u003ePolyrex EM grease\u003c\/strong\u003e rated -20°F to 300°F. Winding protection is a built-in \u003cstrong\u003eautomatic-reset thermal overload\u003c\/strong\u003e, and the motor comes with \u003cstrong\u003e12 flying leads of 16 AWG\u003c\/strong\u003e brought out through a \u003cstrong\u003eknockout (Ko) box\u003c\/strong\u003e, so it can be connected for either \u003cstrong\u003e230 V or 460 V\u003c\/strong\u003e operation per the nameplate wiring diagram. The enclosure carries the \u003cstrong\u003eOPSB\u003c\/strong\u003e designation, there is no drip cover, and Baldor lists the motor for \u003cstrong\u003edirect-on-line starting\u003c\/strong\u003e and as \u003cstrong\u003einverter ready\u003c\/strong\u003e, with \u003cstrong\u003eCSA\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eUR\u003c\/strong\u003e agency approvals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSelecting and installing.\u003c\/strong\u003e This is a Baldor \u003cstrong\u003espec-number motor\u003c\/strong\u003e, so the number printed on the nameplate (\u003cstrong\u003e36N231S109G1\u003c\/strong\u003e) is the quickest way to confirm a match. Check \u003cstrong\u003ehorsepower, speed, frame designation (182TZ), voltage and shaft size\u003c\/strong\u003e against the motor you are replacing — frame suffix letters matter because they describe the shaft and mounting. Its sister motor \u003cstrong\u003e36Q758S109G1\u003c\/strong\u003e is the same 3 HP, 1760 RPM, 182TZ design with a \u003cstrong\u003e208-230\/460 V\u003c\/strong\u003e nameplate, so choose by your supply voltage. Lock out and tag out power before swapping, verify \u003cstrong\u003erotation\u003c\/strong\u003e with the load uncoupled, set \u003cstrong\u003eoverload protection\u003c\/strong\u003e from the nameplate amps, and align the sheave and set \u003cstrong\u003ebelt tension\u003c\/strong\u003e to the drive manufacturer's specification, since over-tight belts are a leading cause of early \u003cstrong\u003ebearing\u003c\/strong\u003e failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExact Baldor Spec Match:\u003c\/strong\u003e Built and specified by Baldor-Reliance as \u003cstrong\u003e36N231S109G1\u003c\/strong\u003e, not a generic cross-fit \u003cstrong\u003e182TZ\u003c\/strong\u003e motor.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDual-Voltage Flexibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Connects for \u003cstrong\u003e230 V (8.2 A)\u003c\/strong\u003e or \u003cstrong\u003e460 V (4.1 A)\u003c\/strong\u003e three-phase power through \u003cstrong\u003e12 flying leads\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBuilt-In Winding Protection:\u003c\/strong\u003e An \u003cstrong\u003eautomatic-reset thermal overload\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eClass F insulation\u003c\/strong\u003e and a \u003cstrong\u003e1.15 service factor\u003c\/strong\u003e give margin on demanding duty.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eServiceable Bearings:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e6206\/6205 ball bearings\u003c\/strong\u003e with \u003cstrong\u003ePolyrex EM grease\u003c\/strong\u003e are common, easy-to-source sizes for long-term maintenance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCommon Questions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat voltage and amperage is this motor?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e230\/460 V\u003c\/strong\u003e, three-phase, 60 Hz, drawing \u003cstrong\u003e8.2 A at 230 V\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003e4.1 A at 460 V\u003c\/strong\u003e per the Baldor nameplate.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCan the rotation be reversed?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes.
