Frame 184T RPM 1725","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Castair 5-184-1 is a 5 HP Open Drip Proof (ODP) electric motor running at 1725 RPM on 208\/230V single-phase power, with a 184T NEMA frame — the OEM replacement motor for Cast Air compressor models specified for this motor configuration. If you are replacing a failed motor on a single-phase Castair compressor, this is the direct OEM replacement that will bolt in without modification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMotor Specs Explained\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 184T NEMA frame designation tells you the mounting footprint and shaft dimensions: foot-mount with a 1-3\/8\" shaft diameter, 2-3\/4\" shaft length, and the standard 184T base bolt pattern. At 1725 RPM, this is a 4-pole motor running at near-synchronous speed — the standard for compressor drives that need consistent pump RPM without the vibration and wear associated with higher-speed motors. The 208\/230V single-phase rating means this motor runs on standard single-phase service available in most shops and garages.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5 HP output:\u003c\/strong\u003e OEM power rating for applicable Castair compressor models\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e208\/230V single-phase:\u003c\/strong\u003e Runs on standard shop single-phase service — no 3-phase required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e1725 RPM:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4-pole motor speed — matched to the pump RPM specification of the compressor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNEMA 184T frame:\u003c\/strong\u003e Standard foot-mount frame with OEM shaft dimensions for direct replacement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOpen Drip Proof (ODP) enclosure:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ventilated construction allows airflow for cooling — suitable for dry indoor environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCastair OEM specification:\u003c\/strong\u003e Direct replacement for applicable Cast Air compressor models\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHorsepower:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5 HP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVoltage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 208\/230V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePhase:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1-phase (single-phase)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRPM:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1725\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNEMA frame:\u003c\/strong\u003e 184T\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnclosure:\u003c\/strong\u003e ODP (Open Drip Proof)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cast Air \/ Castair\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5-184-1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrice:\u003c\/strong\u003e $726.11 — call for pricing and availability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eODP vs. TEFC: Which Do You Have?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eODP motors have ventilation openings that allow air to flow through the motor for cooling — they are lighter and run cooler than TEFC (Totally Enclosed Fan Cooled) motors but require a clean, dry environment. If your original motor was ODP (you can hear the cooling fan inside), replace it with ODP. Do not substitute a TEFC motor for an ODP without checking that the compressor shroud and belt guard allow for the larger TEFC frame dimensions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eApplications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMotor replacement on Cast Air \/ Castair single-phase compressors requiring 5 HP, 184T frame, 1725 RPM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShops and facilities running single-phase electrical service (no 3-phase available)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGarages, small automotive shops, body shops, and light industrial facilities\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompressor rebuilds and long-term facility equipment maintenance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy From OEM Diagnostic Tools?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe have been supplying Cast Air compressor components, including motors, to shops and industrial buyers since 2016.
