What is a Washdown Duty Motor?

Washdown motors are specially designed to limit water and cleaning chemicals from entering the motor. Their construction limits corrosion and there are fewer places for debris to build up on the body of the motor.

The stainless-steel body essentially makes these waterproof electric motors, though submerging them is not recommended. You’ll find options where the nameplate is stamped onto the body of the motor, which removes the chance for bacteria buildup under a riveted nameplate.

Washdown motors are certified with an IP rating starting with a 6, which means the motor is completely dust tight. The second digit will indicate its level of protection against water:

IP65: protection against low-pressure water jets
IP66: protection against high-pressure water jets
IP67: protection against 30 minutes of immersion in water
IP68: protection against continuous immersion in water
IP69: protection against high temperature, high pressure water jets

eMotors Direct’s stock of washdown duty electric motors are designed for use in applications where the motor is expected to be exposed to pressure from cleaning jets and water (and possibly cleaning chemicals). These motors are most often used in the food processing industry where sanitation is key but can be used anywhere you want to avoid the ingress of water. These motors are also commonly used in packaging, pharmaceutical manufacturing, wastewater treatment, marine applications, and car washes.
