Baldor Electric Company EM7040T Industrial Three Phase Induction Motor

The Baldor EM7040T is a 5 HP three‑phase induction motor in a 215T frame designed for industrial duty. This dual‑voltage machine is rated for 230/460 V at 60 Hz and 190/380 V at 50 Hz, enabling operation across common North American and international power systems. With a six‑pole design, it runs at roughly 1160 rpm at 60 Hz (about 975 rpm at 50 Hz) under load, providing torque suitable for pumps, fans, conveyors, and other equipment that fits the 215T footprint and requires 3‑phase power. The EM7040T is part of Baldor’s EM series, a general‑purpose motor line intended for standard industrial drive tasks and straightforward replacement in compatible systems. The model name denotes a 5/3 HP rating within a 3‑phase, 60 Hz specification, aligning with Baldor’s mounting, shaft, and electrical interfaces for easy installation in suitable equipment.
