• Industrial Build: Engineered for continuous duty cycles in high-demand HVACR environments.

Common Questions

Is the Bell & Gossett 169230 compatible with VFDs?
This single-phase motor is designed for constant-speed operation. For variable frequency drive applications, consult technical data for 3-phase inverter-duty alternatives available for the same pump frame.

What NEMA frame size is this motor?
The 169230 typically utilizes a 56J or 56C frame; however, always verify the specific shaft dimensions and face mount configurations of your existing pump bracket before installation.

Can this motor be used in potable water systems?
Yes, when coupled with the appropriate lead-free bronze or stainless steel pump body, this motor is suitable for domestic hot water recirculation loops.
