Washdown AC motors power conveyors in high humidity and wet environments where equipment needs to be regularly hosed down and cleaned during washdown procedures such as in chemical, pharmaceutical, food, and beverage production. They are totally enclosed to withstand water or other liquids that can damage the motors' internal components. Motor shafts have V-ring rotating shaft seals and spring-loaded contact seals while the motor bearings are lubricated with moisture-resistant grease for further washdown protection.
