Epc 5KC49PN0164X Belt Drive Blower Motor 1 Hp

Product Description

The EPC 5KC49PN0164X is a single-phase, open drip-proof belt drive blower motor rated at 1 HP and 1,725 RPM. It operates on 115/208-230 volts, making it compatible with standard single-phase power supplies found in light industrial and commercial facilities. The motor features moderate starting torque, which suits it well for variable-load belt-driven applications. Licensed HVAC technicians, millwrights, and industrial maintenance electricians are the primary installers. At 29 pounds and measuring 13.69 inches in length, it is a substantial, full-duty unit built for continuous-duty cycling in demanding environments.

This motor is designed for belt-driven fans, blowers, pumps, power tools, small compressors, and farm equipment. It fits industrial and light commercial applications where an open drip-proof enclosure is acceptable and the motor is protected from direct water exposure. Typical installations include air-handling unit blower assemblies, belt-driven exhaust fans, and centrifugal pump drives in facilities where a standard single-phase 115 or 230-volt circuit is available.

Key Features

• 1 HP output with moderate starting torque suited for belt-driven loads
• Dual-voltage operation at 115/208-230 VAC for flexible wiring configurations
• 1,725 RPM synchronous speed for standard 60 Hz single-phase circuits
• Open drip-proof (ODP) enclosure designed for protected indoor industrial environments
• Single-phase design compatible with standard residential and light commercial power

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-drive substitution for open drip-proof belt drive blower motors rated at 1 HP, 1,725 RPM, and 115/208-230 VAC single-phase in industrial fans, blowers, pumps, and similar belt-driven equipment.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or qualified maintenance technician. Disconnect and lock out all power at the disconnect switch before removing the existing motor or making any wiring connections. Verify that the supply voltage and circuit ampacity match the motor nameplate before energizing. Align the drive belt and sheaves to manufacturer-specified tension guidelines to prevent premature bearing wear and ensure safe operation.
