Motor Identity and Purpose

The Leeson 108231.00 is a DC washdown motor rated at one horsepower with a 1750 RPM speed and a 56C frame. It operates on a 180-volt supply and is categorised as an HVAC control component. The unit is supplied in new condition.

Replacement Context

This motor replaces an existing 56C frame DC washdown unit of the same horsepower and voltage rating when the original fails or shows reduced performance. The jump is worth it when the current motor can no longer maintain the required 1750 speed under load or when washdown duty sealing has degraded.

Suitability and Limits

The motor suits maintenance teams and OEMs needing a direct 56C frame replacement for HVAC fan or pump applications requiring washdown protection. Buyers who need a different frame size, AC input, or a higher horsepower rating should look at alternative models.

Questions about this item

What NEMA frame size does the 56C motor require for mounting?

The motor uses a 56C face mount that bolts to any standard NEMA 56 frame with matching bolt pattern and shaft dimensions.

How do I wire the 180 V DC supply to the motor terminals, and which step is commonly missed?

Connect the 180 V DC leads to the marked terminals, then verify rotation direction before securing the conduit; skipping the rotation check is the frequent error.

Which wearable parts will need replacement on this wash-duty motor over time?

Brushes and bearings are the service items; inspect brush length at regular intervals and replace bearings when noise or vibration increases.
