Yaskawa EELBQ-50 AC Motor Three-Phase Induction

The Yaskawa EELBQ-50 is a compact 3-phase AC induction motor (squirrel-cage) from Yaskawa Electric, rated at 0.4 kW (≈0.54 HP) with a nominal speed of 1710–1730 RPM for a 4-pole, 60 Hz drive, making it a space-efficient choice for constrained enclosures. Built for continuous-duty industrial use, it accepts 200–220 VAC and supports both 50/60 Hz operation, and can be powered directly on line or through a variable-frequency drive to match load and process requirements. As a general automation motor, it's suited to drive conveyors, pumps, fans, and small machinery in manufacturing, material handling, and process environments that require steady-speed operation. For replacement planning and compatibility, common matches in the same power class include the Yaskawa EEK-I series motors, ABB M2BAX 0.37–0.55 kW motors, and Siemens 1LE1 / 1LA7 series. Its compatibility with 200–220 VAC, 50/60 Hz operation, and direct-on-line or VFD control makes it suitable for legacy lines and modern automation upgrades.
