Overview
The Dunkermotoren GR63X55 is a compact permanent magnet brushed DC motor designed for industrial automation, door operators, conveyor systems, and motion control applications. With 24VDC rated operation and IP50 protection rating, this motor delivers consistent torque and speed across variable load conditions. The GR63X55 operates independently of mounting position and supports both clockwise and counter-clockwise rotation, making it versatile for OEM and retrofit applications.
Key Features
- Permanent magnet DC motor with brushed commutation for reliable, cost-effective operation
- 24VDC rated voltage with 4.9A nominal current draw and 90W continuous power output
- 27 Ncm continuous torque at 3350 RPM; 257 Ncm stall torque for high initial load handling
- IP50 protection rating protects against dust and water spray in manufacturing environments
- Class E insulation per VDE 0530 standard; DIN 42016 mounting dimensions for industry interchangeability
