Overview

The TechTop CB1-AL-TF-182T-2-B-B-3 is a 3 HP, 182T frame, single-phase TEFC (Totally Enclosed Fan-Cooled) motor designed for industrial applications requiring reliable performance and energy efficiency. Rated at 208-230V, 60Hz, this motor delivers 3519 RPM with a service factor of 1.15, ensuring robust operation under varying load conditions. With a nominal efficiency of 85% (IE3 - NEMA Premium), it meets DOE compliance and reduces energy consumption compared to standard motors. Key electrical specifications include a rated current of 12.6/11.4 Amps (high/low voltage), a locked rotor current of 277% of full load, and a breakdown torque of 235% of full load. The motor features a 650µF/165V start capacitor and an 115µF/250V run capacitor, optimized for smooth acceleration and stable operation. Insulation class F and tropicalization ensure durability in harsh environments, while the IP55 rating provides protection against dust and water ingress. Mechanical robustness is built into the CB1-AL-TF-182T-2-B-B-3 with double-shielded ball bearings (6306-ZZ on the drive end and 6206-ZZ on the non-drive end) and a graphite gray 7024 coating for corrosion resistance. The motor includes a 1/2" NPT cable entry and removable feet for flexible installation. Certified by UL, CSA, and DOE (File Nos. 323353, 224693, 096A), this motor is ideal for pumps, fans, compressors, and other industrial machinery operating in continuous duty cycles. With a rated ambient temperature of 40°C and a maximum altitude of 1000 meters, the CB1-AL-TF-182T-2-B-B-3 is engineered for reliability in diverse operating conditions. Its NEMA Design L classification ensures compatibility with a wide range of control systems and variable frequency drives (VFDs). Backed by Techtop Industries' technical support, this motor combines efficiency, durability, and compliance to deliver long-term value in industrial applications.
