Product Description:

The PWM3632-5313-7-3 is a brushed DC motor produced by Pacific Scientific within the PWM Brushed Treadmill Motors series. It is intended for treadmill drive assemblies and other motion platforms that need controlled speed under load. The motor converts electrical energy into mechanical shaft power so a dedicated controller can regulate belt velocity during changing operating conditions. In automated equipment, it provides steady rotary torque for repeated starts, stops, and speed changes while fitting into compact drive layouts.

The motor operates from a bus voltage of 130 VDC and draws a continuous line current of 17.1 A when delivering rated output. That output is 2.5 HP, which gives the drive system enough capacity for sustained belt movement under normal use. At rated conditions, the armature reaches 3400 RPM, allowing the connected pulley system to convert motor speed into the required belt travel rate. Speed control is handled through a Filtered PWM scheme, and the filtered waveform helps reduce current ripple, lower audible noise, and limit electromagnetic interference in nearby control components.

Operational durability is supported by a Continuous duty designation, which allows extended operation without planned cooldown intervals during normal service. Magnetic excitation is supplied by a Permanent Magnet field, eliminating the need for separate shunt or series field windings and helping keep the motor package compact. Equipment grounding is provided through a Case Ground connection, offering a low-impedance path for fault current and supporting standard bonding practices. The allowable ambient range is −15 to 25 °C, so the installation should maintain suitable airflow and surrounding conditions to protect insulation and support stable thermal behavior over time.
