Electric Motors by Mounting Type

Motor mounting configurations ensure proper mechanical alignment, torque transfer, vibration control, and equipment compatibility.
Choosing the correct mounting style simplifies installation, improves system reliability, and protects bearings and couplings.

Crossman supplies foot-mount, C-face, D-flange, and vertical motors across NEMA frame sizes, available in TEFC, ODP, washdown, and explosion-proof designs — all with inverter-duty options for VFD applications.

Mechanical Considerations

Alignment Mount style affects coupling & shaft alignment

Load Support Vertical & flange mounts support thrust loads

Serviceability C-face simplifies gearbox & pump maintenance

Vibration Proper mounting mitigates vibration transfer

Belt Drive Suitability Foot mounts preferred for belt-drive tension loads

Correct mounting protects bearings, shaft seals, and couplings.
