Century C916 is a 3/4 HP, single‑phase general‑purpose motor designed for 1725 rpm operation on a 56C frame. It accepts 115/208-230 V in a dual‑voltage configuration and is typically offered as capacitor‑start, C‑face equipment for straightforward mounting. The unit features a 5/8 in diameter shaft (approximately 2‑1/16 in long) and a compact C‑face footprint suitable for direct drive to pumps, fans, conveyors, and other light industrial equipment. Depending on the variant, its enclosure is TEFC (totally enclosed, fan‑cooled) or TEAO (totally enclosed air‑over), giving options for clean environments or open drip‑proof installations.
