Three-phase motor for industrial machinery
The Baldor-Reliance VEM3546T is a new general-purpose motor rated at 1 HP with a 143TC frame. It suits OEMs and maintenance teams that need a direct-drive replacement for pumps, fans or conveyors in continuous-duty applications.
Voltage and frame match the installation
The motor runs on 208-230/460 V AC at 60 Hz and draws 3/1.5 A at full load. Its C-face mounting and 143TC dimensions determine whether it bolts to the existing gearbox or pump without adapter plates.
Steady output at rated ambient temperature
Continuous duty rating and Class F insulation keep the windings within limits at 40 °C ambient. Nominal efficiency of 85.5 percent and a 1.15 service factor mean the motor delivers rated torque hour after hour without thermal trips.

Questions about this item
What does the 1760 rpm nameplate speed mean when the motor is loaded in a machine?
At full load the shaft turns at 1760 rpm, which is the rated operating speed for this 1 HP three-phase motor.
How does the 208-230/460 V 60 Hz supply affect the current draw?
The motor draws 3 A at the low-voltage connection and 1.5 A at 460 V, so the supply voltage you choose sets the actual amperage.
What does the 143TC frame tell me about mounting this motor?
The 143TC frame provides a C-face flange with a 5/8-inch shaft and standard bolt pattern for direct coupling to pumps or gearboxes.
