Baldor M1706T Three-Phase Induction Electric Motor

The Baldor-Reliance M1706T is a two-speed, 3-phase AC induction motor designed for continuous duty in a 184T frame with a TEFC (Totally Enclosed Fan-Cooled) enclosure. It runs on 460 VAC, 60 Hz, delivering 2 HP at the high speed of 1725 rpm and 1 HP at the low speed of 850 rpm, providing selectable torque from a single winding. This foot-mounted, rigid-mount motor uses the 184T frame to fit standard Baldor footprints while TEFC protection suits a variety of industrial environments. Typical applications include driving fans and blowers, machine tools, hoists, conveyors, and pumps where a compact, dual-speed, 3-phase drive on a 460 V supply is advantageous. The M1706T is a continuous-duty Baldor motor designed to replace or upgrade equipment requiring dual-speed operation without changing the frame or enclosure.
