Baldor Electric Company EM3218T Electric Motor

Baldor EM3218T is a 5 HP, three‑phase general‑purpose induction motor built on a 184T frame with an Open Drip Proof enclosure and rigid‑base mounting. It runs at a nominal 1,750 rpm at 60 Hz and is designed for multi‑voltage operation at 208–230/460 VAC, making it compatible with common plant power supplies and drives. This open‑design motor is commonly used to drive pumps, fans, conveyors, and other industrial machinery that require reliable torque and straightforward mounting. Full‑load current varies with voltage: about 14 A at 208 V, 13.2 A at 230 V, and 6.6 A at 460 V. The 184T frame provides a robust footprint for retrofit or new installations, and the EM3218T family is widely specified for standard, heavy‑duty applications where a durable Baldor general‑purpose motor is appropriate.
