The VWDIR20 AC gearmotors feature 1/4 horsepower (186W) 115V, 60Hz split phase electric motors.

The compact, integral gear reducers feature a phenolic high-speed gear for low noise and steel gearing in subsequent stages, with ratios ranging from 14:1 to 286:1.

Corresponding fixed output speeds are from 120 to 6rpm, with continuous torque ratings from 100 to 600in-lbs (11.3 to 67.8Nm).

The gearmotors feature built-in face and fount mounting, with overhung load (OHL) capability up to 300lbs (136.4kg).

The VWDIR20 AC parallel shaft gearmotors are designed for high torque, single phase commercial and industrial applications such as electromechanical pool covers and bleachers, compactors, can crushers, conveyors, commercial garage door operators and a wide variety of poultry and other agricultural equipment.

UL and CSA recognition are standard and CE recognition can be provided for OEMs.
