Upgrade to a dependable single‑phase drive with the B237. Its thru‑bolt footprint and threaded shaft support precise alignment and robust coupling in constrained spaces, while the auto overload protector helps protect against overheating during peak loads. For installation, ensure a 230–240V supply and that controllers and breakers are rated for at least 12 A FLA, then tighten mounting hardware to spec to maintain alignment under load.
