Universal Electric D Frame Motors – Shaded Pole

5.05″ (128mm) diameter, 25W to 185W output, 4 & 6 pole

D Frame motors have black painted pressed steel end-shields, located by register laminations, and secured by 2 or 4 case-bolts. Body construction is open ventilated or totally enclosed. Motors can be single or double shaft types, often mounted in a resilient base or cradle for use in air conditioners, fan coils, fan convectors, etc. Alternatively, motors are mounted using extended case-bolts at either end, or with special radial lugs or brackets. Motors can be single speed or multi-speed with tapped windings. Thermal overload protection fitted. Nearly always sleeve bearings for fan duty. Terminal boxes, cable adaptors and connectors, etc. optional. Reversible rotation available. Many permutations of power output, speed, tappings, body length, shaft centre height, rotation, body enclosure, etc to consider.

Equivalents: Similar designs of small electric motors were manufactured by Asea, Brook Crompton Parkinson, GEC Machines, Lothian Electric Machines, MagnaTek, LEMAC, Ranco, Universal Electric, etc.

Applications: Air conditioning, coolers and condensers, fan coil units, fan convectors, direct drive fans for domestic, commercial and industrial warm air heating, electric central heating fans, evaporators, extract fans, heat pumps, unit heaters, ventilation fans,
