SS150B-P2 by Danaher

The Danaher SS150B-P2 motor from the Slo-Syn Synchronous Motors series is a precision single-phase synchronous motor engineered for smooth, repeatable rotary motion in industrial automation. Built on a robust NEMA 42 frame, this motor operates at 120 VAC and 60 Hz, offering a rated speed of 72 RPM and a minimum running torque of 150 oz-in (1.06 N·m). Its primary function is to deliver consistent, low-speed motion control for applications such as conveyor indexing, rotary dial positioning, and precision assembly systems.

In terms of technical specifications, the SS150B-P2 draws a line current of 0.45 A and incorporates a high-quality 3.75 uF capacitor (Part No. 201053-005) to stabilize voltage and improve power factor. A dedicated resistor kit (Part No. 201052-007) further refines the motor’s starting characteristics and torque delivery, minimizing inrush current and reducing stress on control electronics. As a synchronous motor, it maintains exact speed synchronization with the AC line frequency, ensuring accurate positioning without drift over extended operating periods.

This motor’s design emphasizes compatibility and ease of integration: it features a standard single-phase input connection and is compatible with common industrial drives and control panels. Weighing just 8.0 lb (3.6 kg), the unit is compact and lightweight, facilitating installation in tight spaces and retrofits. The sturdy NEMA 42 housing provides mechanical rigidity and environmental protection in manufacturing settings. By combining efficient power consumption with reliable torque output, the SS150B-P2 enhances operational efficiency, reduces maintenance, and ensures long service life in demanding industrial applications, making it an ideal choice for precision automation tasks.
