Overview
The Bodine Electric KCI-24T3 is a fractional horsepower AC parallel shaft gearmotor designed for industrial automation and machinery applications. This used unit operates on 115V single-phase AC power at 1/450 HP with a 26 RPM output shaft speed. Manufactured by Bodine Electric Company, a leading supplier of gearmotors and speed controls, the KCI-24T3 delivers reliable low-speed, high-torque performance in a compact package.
Key Features
- AC Parallel Shaft Design: Economical, low-maintenance inline gear motor configuration
- Single-Phase 115V Supply: Compatible with standard North American industrial electrical systems
- Low Output Speed: 26 RPM enables high-torque, slow-speed applications
- USA Manufactured: Built to industrial-grade durability standards
- Integrated Gearhead: Motor and gearbox operate as one sealed unit, eliminating leakage risk and bearing misalignment
