About this product
The LEESON 132044 electric motor is a 7.5HP, single-phase unit specifically designed for compressor duty. It operates at 3450 RPM on 208-230V, with full load amps of 34A at 208V and 31A at 230V. This motor features an ODP (Open Drip-Proof) enclosure, a 184T NEMA frame, and a 1 1/8 inch keyed shaft. It is reversible and made with a steel frame, originating from Mexico.
Our take
This 7.5HP LEESON motor is a serious piece of equipment for demanding compressor applications, offering substantial power at 3450 RPM. The ability to run on both 208V and 230V is a definite plus for versatility in different setups. I particularly appreciate the reversible feature and the robust steel frame construction, indicating durability. However, the ODP enclosure means it's best kept in a clean, dry environment, and its higher price point reflects its power and build quality. Make sure your compressor can truly utilize this much power and that your electrical system can handle the high amperage draw.
