  • Abstract
    FOR MOTOR APPLICATIONS where the air is contaminated with dust, the totally enclosed motor has proven worth while in reduced maintenance. In the past five years, totally enclosed fan-cooled a-c motors have become available in ratings above 500 horsepower, opening up many applications in powerhouse auxiliaries and mill uses where dirty air is a problem.
