Electric motors
Designed with a carbon brush mounted internally to divert shaft currents away from motor bearings, Baldor Super-E electric motors with a shaft grounding brush come in ratings of 1 through 50hp in totally enclosed fan-cooled or open drip-proof foot-mounted designs; 1/2 through 5hp C-face, foot-mounted designs also are available. The internally mounted brush helps prevent voltage spikes from damaging motor bearings.
