Drip-proof motors
22 August 2014
Marathon Motors' range of UL-listed fire pump, drip-proof motors has been expanded to include a totally enclosed fan-cooled (TEFC) NEMA offering. The whole range including the new units is available through Regal UK.

Fire pump motors are the critical component in building sprinkler systems, their role being to supply a robust, pressurised water supply to both the sprinkler risers and to hose stand pipes distributed throughout the building.
Marathon's new TEFC fire pump motor is available in a power range of 3HP to 450HP, with two- and four-pole capabilities, three-phase, 1800rpm to 3600rpm, 200V to 460V and 60/50 Hz ratings. It is of cast-iron construction, and uses ball bearings to provide a robust and reliable unit.
