SS242-1012

The Danaher SS242-1012 synchronous motor is a precision-driven unit in the renowned Slo-Syn Synchronous Motors series, optimized for demanding industrial automation applications. Designed around the Model Variant: SS242c, this motor delivers a Minimum Torque of 240 oz·in (169 N·cm), ensuring consistent rotary force under load. The SS242-1012 supports Voltage Options of 208 V, 220 V, and 240 V, enabling compatibility across diverse power systems. Its dual Operating Current ratings of 1 A or 2.5 A accommodate both low- and high-torque configurations without sacrificing responsiveness. Integrated within a compact frame, the motor combines mechanical robustness with a streamlined form factor for simplified mounting and alignment. The combination of these primary specifications establishes the SS242-1012 as a versatile, high-precision actuator in industrial drive systems.

Building on its core specification set, the SS242-1012 exhibits advanced performance through a balanced Load Inertia rating of 3 lb·in² or 7 lb·in², providing stable speed regulation under variable loads. Electrical performance is fine-tuned via a Capacitor Value of 0.20 uF, which enhances phase balance and reduces current ripple during operation. For higher-voltage installations, the motor offers a Capacitor Rating of 2 uF (220 V variant: 2.5 uF), further optimizing start-stop dynamics and torque consistency. The Wiring Option: Type C configuration integrates a covered capacitor design for improved electrical safety and simplified wiring harness layout. Installation and maintenance are expedited by standardized Kit Numbers: 201053-038 and 201053-041, which include mounting hardware, electrical connectors, and alignment fixtures. Collectively, these technical features yield a synchronous drive solution with low acoustic noise, minimal torque ripple, and precise positional control.

Reliability is a hallmark of the SS242-1012, with a construction that resists mechanical wear and maintains torque accuracy over its service life. Its robust frame and sealed bearing assembly protect internal components from dust and environmental contaminants in heavy-duty factory settings. Integration into existing control architectures is facilitated by the motor’s standardized electrical interface and modular accessory kits, enabling rapid system commissioning. Typical applications include conveyor indexing, rotary tables, pick-and-place mechanisms, and closed-loop feedback systems within packaging, semiconductor assembly, and laboratory automation sectors. As part of Danaher’s Slo-Syn family, the SS242-1012 delivers consistent performance, straightforward installation, and long-term operational stability in a wide range of industrial processes.
