The Baldor L1510T is a 7.5 HP single-phase air compressor duty electric motor built to handle the high starting load and torque that air compressors demand. It can be wired to run in either direction (CW or CCW).
Replacing a compressor motor? Match the frame, shaft, and mounting to your existing motor — and if you change the RPM, resize the pulley or sheave to keep your compressor's CFM. Not sure it will fit your setup? Contact us with your old motor's nameplate and we'll confirm the right replacement before you buy.
Backed by a Baldor (ABB) limited manufacturer's warranty — 18 months from installation or 24 months from date of manufacture, whichever comes first. We package every motor carefully so it arrives ready to install, and we stand behind every sale. Questions about fit or specs? Get in touch.
