Why this matters: Higher efficiency means more of the electricity you pay for gets turned into useful work — not wasted as heat. A motor running 8 hours a day, 5 days a week for 10 years will consume tens of thousands of dollars in electricity. Every efficiency point compounds.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers specific to the EM3555-5 — based on its actual specifications.

What voltage does the EM3555-5 operate at? +
This motor is rated for 575 at 60 Hz. Confirm your supply matches before installation — running a motor at incorrect voltage will damage the windings and void the warranty.
Is this a single-phase or 3-phase motor? +
This is a 3-phase motor. 3-phase power is standard for industrial installations. You cannot run this on residential single-phase without a phase converter or VFD.
What is the full-load amp draw? +
Full-load current is - at 575. Size your overload protection and wiring per NEC (usually 125% of FLA) and the motor nameplate.
How efficient is this motor? +
Nominal efficiency is 85.5% with a power factor of 88. Use the Estimate Operating Cost calculator above to see annual running cost at your electricity rate.
What NEMA frame size is the EM3555-5? +
This motor uses a NEMA 56H frame. Design type is B (standard-torque, standard-starting-current, ~5% slip). Reference NEMA MG-1 for exact bolt patterns and shaft dimensions.
What are the shaft dimensions? +
Shaft is 0.625" diameter. Verify against your coupling, sheave, or pulley before installation.
What bearings does this motor use? +
Drive-end bearing: 6205. Opposite-drive-end bearing: 6203. These are industry-standard sizes — replacements available from any bearing supplier.
What is the motor speed? +
Rated speed is 3490 RPM (2-pole, high-speed — typical for pumps and compressors). Pole count: 2.
How much does this motor weigh? +
Approximate weight is 41lb. Plan lifting equipment and mounting structure accordingly.
What mounting configuration is included? +
This motor ships in Rigid configuration. Other mounts may be available — call 1-844-466-8670 to discuss custom mounting.
Can I use this motor outdoors or in wet locations? +
Enclosure type: TEFC. TEFC (Totally Enclosed Fan Cooled) is suitable for outdoor, dusty, and washdown environments. It resists contamination from dust, water spray, and non-corrosive chemicals.
What ambient temperature range is this motor rated for? +
Maximum continuous ambient: 40°C with Class B insulation. Above this, derate the motor per NEMA guidelines or use a higher-class winding.
What duty cycle is this rated for? +
Duty rating: Continuous with a service factor of 1.15. Service factor above 1.0 means the motor can handle short overloads without damage — but continuous operation should stay within nameplate HP.
Can I reverse the rotation direction? +
Rotation: Reversible. Swap any two of the three power leads to reverse (3-phase) or follow the wiring diagram in the terminal box (single-phase).
