Parallel shaft washdown-duty DC gearmotors use a gearbox to reduce the input speed from an electric motor, keeping the gearbox output and motor shafts parallel for compact applications. They are suitable for use where direct liquid contact or frequent cleaning occurs. 

Right angle shaft washdown-duty DC gearmotors transmit input rotational force at a 90 degree angle through the gearbox and output shaft. These compact gearmotors fit in tight spaces in conveyors and packaging machinery. They are suitable for use where direct liquid contact or frequent cleaning occurs.
