Note: (1) Values are representative of current designs. Design-to-specification windings, drive and control circuits are available for these motors.
(2) Sound pressure is recorded at 1500 rpm under no-load conditions, 50 cm (axially) from the end of the output shaft.
(3) Lifetime expectancy ratings are minimums based on complex axial/radial loads presented by printer and copier applications.
