Regal Rexnord bn62 3HP Dual-speed Odp Motor 230V 48Y

Product Description

The REGAL REXNORD bn62 is a dual-speed, open drip-proof (ODP) electric motor rated at 3 horsepower and designed for two-speed operation at 3450 and 1725 RPM. Built on a 48Y frame, it runs on 230-volt single-phase power and is suited for applications where variable airflow or pump output is required at two distinct operating speeds. Licensed HVAC technicians, plumbers, and equipment service pros install this motor as a direct replacement or upgrade in equipment requiring a 48Y frame footprint. The ODP enclosure allows air to circulate through the motor for cooling while providing basic protection against dripping liquids in non-washdown environments.

This motor is a fit for residential and light commercial applications including pool and spa pump systems, air-handling units, compressors, and other motor-driven equipment that calls for a 48Y frame dual-speed motor at 230 volts. The two-speed capability — 3450 RPM for high demand and 1725 RPM for reduced-load operation — allows the driven equipment to run efficiently across different duty cycles. It is typically installed by HVAC technicians, pool service professionals, or licensed electricians depending on the end application.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or qualified service technician. Disconnect and lock out all power to the equipment before removing the existing motor or making any wiring connections. Verify the supply voltage, frame dimensions, shaft size, and rotation direction match the application requirements before installation. Follow all applicable NEC guidelines for motor wiring, overload protection, and disconnect sizing.
