Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does the NEMA 4 enclosure rating mean for this motor?
A: NEMA 4 enclosures are rated watertight and hose-down resistant, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations including wash-down environments, wet locations, and areas exposed to rain or direct water spray. This contrasts with ODP (Open Drip Proof) which is indoor-only, and TEFC which is enclosed but not hose-down rated.
Q: What does Right Hand (RH) mean in the context of this motor?
A: Right-hand (RH) refers to the output shaft orientation of the motor. When facing the shaft end of the motor, the shaft extends from the right side. This configuration is required for specific Genie operator mounting setups where the standard left-hand shaft orientation would not align correctly with the operator drive mechanism.
Q: What voltage and amperage ratings apply to this motor?
A: This motor is rated for 208/230/460V three-phase power, which is field-selectable. At 208V or 230V the full-load amperage is approximately 4A, and at 460V it is approximately 3A. Always verify the voltage tap or wiring configuration matches your facility supply before installation.
Q: What are the related or paired SKUs for this motor?
A: The paired SKUs in this family are 111697.0003.S (1/2HP 3PH NEMA 4 RH) for a lower horsepower three-phase option, and 111697.0002.S (1HP 1PH NEMA 4 RH) for a single-phase equivalent. For non-right-hand NEMA 4 or alternative enclosure types, consult the 111131 series (575V NEMA 4) or 111308 series (TEFC).
Q: Can this motor be used as a direct drop-in replacement for any Genie 1HP 3PH motor?
A: No. This motor is a specific replacement part intended for Genie commercial operators requiring a right-hand shaft orientation with NEMA 4 enclosure protection. While the electrical frame (NEMA 56, 1750 RPM) is common, the right-hand shaft direction makes it non-interchangeable with standard left-hand motors without operator modification. Confirm the shaft orientation requirement of your specific operator before ordering.
