I have a .25 hp, 750:1, TEFC integral gearmotor that I want to drive very slowly by removing the fan and coupling to the stub shaft. It would be driven about 6 rpm with another very small integral gearmotor through a small clutch. A basic creep drive.
The actual required horsepower at high speed is .12 hp and the duty should be 5 minutes on and 6 hours off. Should I be worried about heat since the fan is gone? How long do you think I could run at half FLT without a fan without doing damage?
