Overview

Techtop Motors AE3-324LP-6-D-25 is a 25 HP, 3-phase, 6-pole (1200 RPM) aerator motor designed for demanding industrial applications requiring high efficiency and reliability. This NEMA Premium IE3 motor delivers 88.2% nominal efficiency, ensuring energy savings and compliance with DOE regulations. Rated for 230/460V at 60Hz (230/460V at 50Hz optional), it operates with a service factor of 1.25, providing overload capacity for fluctuating loads. The Totally Enclosed Fan-Cooled (TEFC) enclosure with IP55 rating protects against dust and water ingress, making it ideal for harsh environments. Key electrical specifications include a rated current of 63/31.9 Amps (230/460V), KVA code C, and insulation class H with tropicalization for enhanced durability. The motor features a 12-lead dual-voltage wiring configuration, allowing flexible installation in either high or low voltage configurations. With a rated speed of 1175 RPM and a breakdown torque of 173% of full load, it delivers consistent performance under varying conditions. Mechanically, the AE3-324LP-6-D-25 is built with 6312 C3 bearings on both drive-end (DE) and non-drive-end (NDE) sides, ensuring smooth operation and extended bearing life. The motor’s graphite grey 7024 coating provides corrosion resistance, while the Class 1, Division 2 hazardous location certification (Groups A, B, C, D) allows safe operation in potentially explosive atmospheres. Certified by UL, CSA, and DOE, this motor meets stringent safety and efficiency standards. Applications include aeration systems in wastewater treatment plants, industrial mixing processes, and HVAC systems where high efficiency and reliability are critical. The motor’s compact 324LP frame size and dual-voltage compatibility simplify integration into existing systems, reducing installation time and costs.
