Frame Size Information To l l F r e e : 1 - 8 7 7 - 3 8 4 - 2 9 6 7
Suffix letters after the NEMA frame size indicates that the frame differs in some way
from the standard frame. Below is a list of suffixes that may be found after the frame
size and their definition.
A DC Motor or Generator
C “C” flange mounting on drive end **
D “D” flange mounting on drive end **
E Shaft dimensions for elevator motors in frames larger than the 326U frame
H Frame with an “F” dimension larger than a frame without (small framed motors)
J Jet pump motors
JM “C”-face mounted close coupling pump with mechanical seal
JP “C”-face mounted close coupling pump - packed pump
K Sump pump motor
LP & LPH “P” flange mounting vertical solid shaft pump
P & PH “P” flange mounting vertical hollow shaft pump
Assembly Position F-1 VS. F-2
S Standard short shaft
T Included as part of a frame number-standard dimension F-1 F-2
U Included as part of a frame number-standard dimension
V Vertical mounting
Y Special mounting dimensions - manufactured specified
Z Special shaft dimensions - manufactured specified
** If the face mounting is on the end opposite the drive, the suffix will be as follows: “FC” or “FD”
