Baldor Electric Company M3355 Three-Phase AC Motor

The Baldor Electric Company M3355 is a compact, general‑purpose, three‑phase induction motor designed for continuous duty in light industrial equipment. Encased in a NEMA 42 frame with a Totally Enclosed Fan Cooled (TEFC) enclosure, the M3355 is foot‑mounted (F1) for easy installation and service. This Baldor‑Reliance model runs on 230/460 VAC at 60 Hz and uses a 4‑pole design to deliver a nominal speed of 1725 RPM, making it well suited for applications where reliable, variable loads are expected at moderate speeds. The winding code is 3316M, which aligns with Baldor’s standard small‑frame windings and exchange parts. As a general‑purpose motor, it targets continuous duty service and is commonly found in pumps, fans, air compressors, conveyors, and other small machine drives where a robust, compact 3‑phase solution is required. With its TEFC enclosure, it offers protection against dust and moisture in typical workshop settings, while the 42 frame provides compatibility with a wide range of mounting and drive configurations.
