An Electric Motor Heavyweight: Baldor's 2008 Catalogue
Baldor has published its first catalogue of stocked electric motor products following its acquisition of Reliance.
This heavyweight 580-page volume details thousands of Baldor Reliance motor choices in virtually every application area including premium efficiency, severe duty and explosion proof, wash down, DC, vector and brake, plus many application-specific types including pump, HVAC and farm duty. Power ranges for stocked lines range from 0.015 to 750 kW (1/50 to 1000 HP).
Both IEC and NEMA frame types are detailed, but Baldor Reliance's American heritage (the company is the USA's leading vendor of electric motors) means that there is a truly exceptional choice of NEMA types providing in-depth support for automation builders who export to North America and allied markets.
Stocked motors may also be customised easily and the catalogue details around 100 common modifications that can be rapidly applied before shipment.
The catalogue is available in printed form, or as a PDF from the Baldor web site at
