A Heavy Duty 5 HP Three Phase Electric Motor is commonly used in applications that require significant torque and power, such as compressors, fans, conveyors, or pumps. Here’s a breakdown of its key features:

Key Features:

1. Power Output:
   • Rated at 5 horsepower (HP), which is equivalent to about 3.73 kilowatts (kW).
2. Phase:
   • Single-phase: Designed for use with single-phase AC power, which is typically available in most residential and commercial locations (120V or 240V).
3. Voltage Rating:
   • Generally, these motors run on either 110/120V or 220/240V, depending on the application.
   • Dual voltage models can be wired for different voltages.
4. Enclosure Type:
   • Open Drip-Proof (ODP): Suitable for indoor use with low exposure to dirt or moisture.
   • Enclosed Fan-Cooled (TEFC): More rugged, designed to keep out dust, dirt, and moisture, often used in industrial settings.
5. Mounting Type:
   • Can include base mounting, face mounting, or flange mounting depending on the intended application.
6. Thermal Protection:
   • Many motors feature built-in overload protection or thermal cutoffs to prevent overheating.
7. Service Factor:
   • Indicates how much overload the motor can handle; typically, a service factor of 1.15 or 1.25 is common in heavy-duty motors, allowing for a bit more than their rated power.
