Farm Duty Motor 3 HP 230 V
This single-phase AC motor delivers 3 horsepower at 1740 rpm on a 230 volt supply. It is built for agricultural tasks such as crop drying, aeration, exhaust fans, conveyors, milk pumps, augers and barn ventilation.
Capacitor Start TEFC Design
The capacitor-start configuration provides high starting torque for loaded equipment. A totally enclosed fan-cooled aluminium frame protects windings from dust, moisture and chaff. Installation requires a compatible 230 V single-phase circuit and secure mounting; incorrect voltage or undersized wiring will cause overheating and premature failure.
Three Horsepower Continuous Duty
At rated load the motor runs continuously on crop dryers, augers and ventilation fans without thermal trips. It reaches its limit when driving equipment that exceeds the 3 hp rating or when voltage drops significantly below 230 V, causing torque loss and stall.

Questions about this item
How can I confirm the motor is running at the correct speed after installation?
Use a tachometer to verify the shaft rotates at 1740 rpm under load, which matches the rated speed for this 3 hp farm duty motor.
What items are included with the motor and what must be purchased separately?
The motor itself is supplied; a compatible capacitor, mounting hardware, wiring and any driven equipment such as pulleys or fan blades are not included and must be sourced separately.
Which voltage version should I select for a 230 V single-phase supply?
This model is rated for 230 V single-phase operation, so it is the correct choice when your power source matches that voltage.
