Bodine Electric Company 42R5BFPP Electric Motor

The Bodine Electric Company 42R5BFPP is a base‑mount, 42R‑frame three‑phase induction motor rated at 1/4 HP (0.25 HP) and 1700 RPM when powered from 230/460 VAC at 60 Hz. It delivers about 148 oz‑in of torque and runs as a non‑synchronous motor, designed for compact installations where a 3‑phase drive is required. The model is specified for 230/460 VAC, 60 Hz, with a base‑mount footprint that simplifies mounting in standard industrial equipment. For 50 Hz operation, Bodine notes a derating to 1/6 HP and recommends using a 40 µF/250 VAC capacitor (p/n 49401147) to maintain starting and running performance. The 42R5BFPP family appears in Bodine’s standard catalogs and distributor listings with the same electrical ratings, confirming its role as a small‑frame, 3‑phase motor appropriate for space‑constrained assemblies requiring reliable Bodine performance.
