Explosion Proof Drill Rig Duty Motor – 1/2–200 HP, Class I C&D, Inverter Duty, IP55

The Explosion Proof Drill Rig Duty Motor is specifically engineered for extreme and hazardous drilling environments where durability, safety, and consistent performance are critical. Available in both single-phase and three-phase configurations, with power ratings from 1/2 to 200 HP, this motor delivers reliable operation under the toughest field conditions.

Built with a totally enclosed, heavy-duty steel and cast iron frame, the motor offers rugged protection and longevity. Its IP55 enclosure safeguards internal components from dust and water ingress, while the UL & CSA certifications ensure compliance with the highest safety standards, including Class I, Group C & D hazardous locations.

This model is inverter-duty rated starting from 1 HP, making it suitable for variable speed applications common in modern drilling systems. Featuring Class F insulation and a 1.15 service factor, the motor is rated to operate efficiently in ambient temperatures up to 40°C, supporting continuous operation without thermal degradation.

Additional protective features include normally closed thermostats, a threaded lead inlet for secure wiring, UL-approved breather drains, and a drive-end shaft slinger that shields against contaminants. The C-face footed and foot-mounted options offer installation flexibility across a wide range of drilling platforms.

Engineered to perform under hazardous and vibration-intensive conditions, this explosion-proof motor is the ideal solution for critical drilling applications requiring high starting torque, sustained power, and maximum reliability.
