1/4HP LEESON 1750RPM S56C TENV 90VDC EPOXY WASHDOWN MOTOR 108423.00

LEESON WASHGUARD Motors are designed for extended life in applications requiring regular washdown as in food processing, or otherwise wet, high humidity environments. WASHGAURD motors retard the entrance of water during cleaning operations and release any water that does enter the motor. Extra protection for the motor’s interior prevents rust and corrosion build-up and drains release trapped moisture to insure a longer life than possible with a standard motor.

Mechanical Protection Features: High-quality, corrosion resistant 303 stainless steel shaft plus lubricated spring-loaded contact seals and patented “V” ring Forsheda seal deflect water, protect bearings and the motor’s interior. Double sealed, oversized bearings with high temperature moisture resistant lubricant are used. Frame, base, endshields, armature and interior components protected by enamel and polyester compounds of outstanding adhesion and resistance to moisture, acids, alkalies and oil. Cast conduit box with threaded entrance, drain holes and tough, high temperature Nitrile gaskets keep water out and resist deflection under high pressure wash-downs. Conduit box cover and fan cover, when used, are type 304 stainless steel. Four drains in each end-shield at 3, 6, 9 and 12 o’clock purge water, and can be repositioned for maximum effectiveness regardless of the motor’s mounting. Machined fits are sealed, and nylon gaskets are used to seal bolt heads. Stainless steel data plate. Chemically inert static free fan is positively positioned on the shaft by opposing flats, shoulder and snap ring arrangement and protected by heavy gauge, stainless steel fan guards. Finished in USDA approved tough white epoxy for superior corrosion resistance and protection against harsh caustic cleaning solutions.
