Belt-Driven Compressor

Compressor whose speed can be changed by replacing the pulley with one of a different size.

Hermetic Compressor

Compressor with a motor requiring leakproof electrical connections and special cooling provisions.

Continuous Duty

Current level at which a motor's full-load torque and horsepower are reached.

Electric Motor

Device operating on principles of electricity and magnetism.

Centrifugal Switch

Device whose contacts change position when force applied to weights overcomes spring pressure.

Radiation

Emission of energy as electromagnetic waves or as moving subatomic particles.

Motor-Driven Fans

Fans wired to run when the compressor runs to circulate air around a condenser.

Electromagnetic Field

Field of force associated with the movement of electric charge.

Frame Size

Letter and number designation indicating the physical dimensions of a motor.

Shaded Pole Motor

Low torque, single phase motor with split stator poles wrapped in a copper band to produce starting torque.

Rotor

Part of an electric motor that rotates and interacts with the stator's magnetic field.

Rotor

The moving part inside an electric motor.

Terminal Box

Where electrical connections are made to control and power the motor.
