Easy Speed Control

Using the dial and digital speed indicator, controlling the BMU series brushless DC motor speed is simple and user-friendly.

Turn the dial and set the desired speed. Push to set (store) the desired speed. After the speed has been set, it can easily be changed by operating the dial. The dial can be locked to prevent changes in speed with the dial lock operation.

Easy Wiring, Easy Set Up

Get started quickly and easily. Connecting the motor is simple using the included cables with connectors. The power and I/O connectors feature a screwless connector, eliminating the need for soldering or crimp tools. Start the motor with one switch; the motor starts when the switch is set to "RUN" and decelerates to a stop if set to "STAND-BY". It's also simple to change the rotation direction of the motor using the rotation direction switch on the front of the driver.

A New Motor Design: Compact, High-Power and High-Efficiency

An optimal magnetic design and high-performance material enable the new brushless DC motor stator plate to have a thickness of just 7/16 in. (11.2 mm). This slim design achieves a highly efficient power unit that outputs 120 W (1/6 HP). Compared with the conventional brushless DC motor of the same output power, the stator plate thickness is only half of the conventional one.

Degree of Protection IP66

The connector is newly developed for small motors and enables a direct connection between the motor and driver. Connecting is easy due to the lock lever that does not require screws. Also, the motor structure has achieved an IP66* degree of protection for its improved watertight and dust-resistant performance. The internal gasket and O-ring improve the watertight performance.

*The degree of protection and output shaft material vary depending on the types of gearheads combined. See the product lineup for details.

Selectable Cable Outlet Direction

Three types of the connection cables are available, depending on which direction the cable will be drawn. Since a single connection cable can connect directly between the driver and motor at a distance of up to 20 m (65.6 ft.), no extension cable is required.

High-Strength Gearhead

High strength is achieved through improving the strength of gears through heat treatment and through larger bearing diameters. The high permissible torque is 2 ~ 3 times that of a gearhead for an AC motor with the same frame size, and this contributes to reducing the size of equipment.

New Gearhead (combination type)

With the gearhead's boss and machined mounting surface, the installation accuracy has been greatly improved. The new gearhead also has lower audible noise as compared to our previous type and comes pre-assembled (motor and gear) as a combination type.

Long Life

A long life gearhead that uses a special bearing and grease for high speed rotation.

A rated life of 10000 hours is achieved.

H1 Food-Grade Grease-Compatible Gearhead

The gearhead uses the NSF registered H1 food-grade lubricant (grease).

What is H1 Food-Grade Grease?

It is a grease registered by the NSF as part of a category where the "lubricants used in food-processing environments where there is the possibility of incidental food contact."

What is NSF International?

NSF is an American-based international, third-party certification body which provides global services such as development of standard, product certification, auditing, training and risk management for the public health and environmental sectors.

Watertight, dust-resistant brushless motors that withstand wet and dusty environments and can be washed with water.

Degree of Protection IP67

Can be used in dusty and wet environments. Can be washed with water.

Designed to be mounted on equipment as-is with no protective cover.

Rust Resistant

The motor is covered with a special rust-resistant coating, with an output shaft and screws made of stainless steel. The installation surface is also painted, so it will be rust-resistant even when installed in stainless steel equipment.

Foot Mount Gearhead JB Gear

The gear ratio is 1/1200 with maximum allowable torque of 518 N•m. Torque is not saturated with the new gearhead, therefore, maximum output torque is available at each gear ratio.

No Mounting Bracket Needed

Configured so it can be quickly installed on equipment.

High Rigidity / Internal Structure

Well designed shaft axis, integrated construction with installation surface.

Superior Mechanical Strength

High permissible radial and axial load strength enables powerful, high-spec operations.

• Stainless Steel Shaft

Can Be Installed on the Flange Surface

High Allowable Torque

Torque is not saturated with the new right-angle hollow shaft Hypoid JH gear, therefore, maximum output torque is available at each gear ratio.

• Stainless Steel Shaft

Permissible Torque without Saturation

The hollow shaft flat gearhead enables permissible torque without saturation even at high gear ratios. The motor torque can be fully utilized.

Low Cost

By eliminating parts such as a coupling or belt-and-pulley, the parts cost and labor will also decrease.

Space Saving is Achieved with a Hollow Shaft Flat Gearhead

The output shaft can be coupled directly to your drive shaft without using a coupling. The flexible installation modes, such as installation on either the front or rear face or by using the center shaft, allows you to reduce the size and installation space of your equipment. Since no shaft-coupling parts are needed, the parts cost and assembly man-hours will also decrease.
