Built to tolerate washdown solutions containing caustic lye, bleach, acids, alkalines, and surfactants, motor incorporates Type 300 SS frame, end bells, mounting base, fan guard, hardware, conduit box, and cover.

Hydrophobic breathers in opposite shaft end bell and conduit box equalize pressure without allowing moisture entry. Motor has NEMA C face and comes in ratings from 1/2-10 hp.
