Marathon 5KH32GNB815X carbonator pump motor is used for fluid transfer in vending machine pumps. It features a temperature-sensing device to prevent motor overheating and a ball bearing mechanism to provide frictionless movement between the moving parts. This motor is offered in base mounting option for providing ease in motor adjustment and establishing a secure connection.
Working Mechanism:
- Split-phase motors (also known as resistance start motors) come with a single cage rotor and a stator (stationary parts) with two windings - main and starting, that are both displaced 90 degrees in space.
- The main winding has very low resistance and a high inductive reactance while the starting winding has high resistance & low inductive reactance.
- Since the current in the two windings is not equal, the rotating field is not uniform. Therefore, the starting torque is smaller than the stated starting torque.
- As the motor reaches the speed of 70 to 80 per cent of the synchronous speed, the starting winding is split automatically from the main supply.
- Thereafter, the motor runs on the main winding only and provides enough torque to perform the desired application.
Features:
- Single-phase motor requiring less starting torque for a softer startup (where the pump must gradually come up to speed).
- Features an open drip proof (ODP) enclosure with ventilation openings (in the end shields and shell) to prevent the ingress of moisture and contaminants.
- Split-phase motor design to attain speeds up to 1725 rpm in HVAC systems.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. What does automatic thermal protection do?
A. Marathon Motors carbonator pump AC motors feature a built-in automatic thermal protection that ensures maximum protection against overload and overheating.
Q. Can I use Marathon 5KH32GNB815X carbonator pump motor with other designs?
A. Yes, this motor is interchangeable with most OEM designs.
Q. How do I maintain my motor?
A. To maintain the smooth performance of the motor, use permanently lubricated sealed bearings that protect against contamination and extend motor service.
Q. What is 48Y frame on a motor?
A. 48Y frame will have a shaft height of 3 inches and usually includes a 1/2 inch rubber spacer (if needed) for mounting. However, they can be interchanged with other designs.
Q. What are continuous duty motors?
A. The induction motors are rated for continuous operation with a temperature rise within the specified insulation temperature. In this type of duty cycle, the motor runs with a constant load for a long duration to eventually reach the thermal equilibrium.
