Motor purpose and fit
This Baldor-Reliance EM3583T is a three-phase general purpose motor rated at 1 1/2 HP in a 143T frame. It suits industrial equipment that needs continuous duty at 3500 rpm nameplate speed. Buyers who need a different horsepower, a single-phase supply or a non-standard frame size should look elsewhere.
Electrical supply checks
Verify that your installation provides 208-230/460 V AC at 60 Hz three-phase power before ordering. The motor draws 3.8 A at the lower voltage and 1.9 A at 460 V with a 1.15 service factor. Ensure your starter, overload protection and wiring are sized for these full-load currents.
Thermal and mechanical behaviour
The totally enclosed fan cooled cast-iron frame operates in ambient temperatures up to 40 degrees C with Class F insulation and no built-in thermal protection. Nominal efficiency is 84 percent at continuous duty. Ball bearings support bidirectional shaft rotation and the rigid base mounting keeps vibration low during normal operation.

Questions about this item
Does the EM3583T ship with a mounting base or do I need to buy one separately?
The motor has a rigid base built into the cast-iron frame, so no separate base is required for standard foot mounting.
How do I decide between the 208-230 V and 460 V connection on this 1 1/2 HP unit?
The motor is dual-voltage; wire it for 208-230 V if your supply is in that range, or for 460 V if you have a 460 V three-phase service.
What does the 84 percent nominal efficiency mean for daily operation at 3500 rpm?
At rated load the motor delivers 84 percent of input power as shaft output, keeping losses low during continuous duty cycles.
