KH Series (high slip) and KN (normal slip) non-synchronous motors are direct replacements for
other motors of this type. Both provide NEMA 2-11 mounting, permanent lubrication, and are
reversible (capacitor furnished with 115V, 60Hz models).
Geared models have a "Heli-Spur" combination with the primary gear stage helical and the
subsequent stages spur. This gearing design provides for quiet, efficient operations. All motors
are designed for continuous duty.
KH Series motors are usually employed where high starting torque, rapid reversal and/or dynamic
braking is required.
KN Series motors have much greater output torque than synchronous motors, maintain relatively
uniform speed but do not have synchronous timing characteristics.
