Motor Overview

The foot-mounted design makes this motor suitable for base-mounted machine beds and fabricated steel structures. This 6 pole configuration suits applications where a slower-running motor is preferred.

---

Why This Version?

This 0.18kW 6 pole Amtecs motor is intended for customers who need an IEC 71B3 motor rather than a generic substitute. The published frame, mounting, and shaft/flange detail (14mm Shaft) make it easier to match to replacement and OEM requirements.

---

Typical Applications

• Replacement motor duties where IEC interchangeability matters
• OEM installations requiring a standard foot mount motor
• Lower-speed industrial applications matched to 6 pole speed characteristics
• General 3 phase machinery including conveyors, mixers, geared drives, and slower-running plant equipment

Frequently Asked Questions

What speed does a 6 pole motor run at?

A 6 pole electric motor operating on a 50Hz supply typically runs at around 1000rpm, with the actual full-load speed usually around 930–970rpm due to motor slip.

What is this 0.18kW motor commonly used for?

This motor is commonly used on small conveyors, fans, pumps, geared assemblies, packaging equipment, and compact OEM machinery where lower running speed, reliable continuous-duty operation, and IEC interchangeability are important.

Is this motor suitable for pulley or coupling drives?

Yes, the B3 foot mount arrangement is commonly used for pulley-driven, chain-driven, and coupling-driven machinery where the motor is mounted directly onto a base or frame and aligned mechanically during installation.

What should I check before replacing a 0.18kW motor?

When replacing a 0.18kW motor, check the frame size, pole count, B3 mounting arrangement, shaft dimensions, supply voltage, and the mechanical fit to the existing machine before ordering.

Can this motor run on an inverter drive?

Many industrial AC motors can operate with inverter drives (VFDs), but suitability depends on the exact application, duty cycle, cable length, and motor specification.

What does B3 mounting mean?

B3 is the standard IEC foot-mounted arrangement, designed for motors that bolt down to a machine bed, baseplate, skid, or fabricated frame.
