Us Motors WDS32S2AFCR 1.5 Hp Tefc C-face Ac Motor 56C

Product Description

The US MOTORS WDS32S2AFCR is a three-phase, energy-efficient AC motor built for demanding industrial and commercial applications. Rated at 1.5 horsepower and 1755 RPM nameplate speed, it runs on a 60 Hz power supply and is housed in a TEFC (Totally Enclosed Fan-Cooled) enclosure for protection against dust, moisture, and contaminants. The 56C frame with C-Face mount allows direct coupling to pumps, gearboxes, and other driven equipment. Full load efficiency is rated at 86.50 percent with a 1.15 service factor, giving the motor reserve capacity for intermittent overload conditions. Licensed electricians and millwrights are the typical installers in light industrial, commercial, and washdown environments.

This motor is suited for washdown applications where moisture exposure is a regular concern. The TEFC enclosure and steel frame construction make it appropriate for food processing areas, car washes, agricultural facilities, and similar wet or damp locations. The C-Face mount style simplifies direct-drive pump and blower installations where close coupling is required. With reversible rotation, it adapts to a wide range of driven-equipment configurations without requiring a different motor variant. Single-speed operation keeps controls straightforward for most standard machine or pump applications.

Key Features

• 1.5 HP output at 1755 RPM nameplate speed on 60 Hz power
• TEFC enclosure provides protection against dust, water splash, and washdown exposure
• 56C frame with C-Face mount for direct-drive coupling to pumps and gearboxes
• 86.50 percent full load efficiency rating reduces operating energy costs
• 1.15 service factor allows sustained operation above nameplate load
• Reversible rotation for flexible installation orientation
• Class F insulation handles elevated winding temperatures in demanding duty cycles

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or upgrade motor for three-phase driven equipment requiring a 56C C-Face frame, 1.5 HP rating, and 1755 RPM operating speed in washdown or general industrial service.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC). Disconnect and lock out all power to the circuit before mounting or wiring the motor. Verify that the supply voltage, phase configuration, and overload protection match the motor nameplate before energizing. Ensure the driven load coupling or direct-drive adapter is properly aligned to prevent bearing overload and premature wear.
