USF Motors and Controls4
®
Vari-Green (VG) Brushless Direct Current Motor (BLDC)
The USF utility blower offers BLDC motors as part of its available
configurations. These motors are available in horsepowers from 0.25 to 1, in
single phase voltages from 115 to 277, and provide up to 80% energy savings
over traditional 1-phase induction motors. Their built-in electronics also provide
the ability to adjust motor speed locally, as well as remotely with the purchase
of additional accessories.
The USF uses two different BLDC motor type assemblies: a basic configuration
and an advanced assembly.
VG-BLDC Basic Assembly
The basic assembly includes the BLDC motor, shaft-mounted cooling fan, toggle-style disconnect, and NEMA-3R
enclosure to protect the motor from weather. A potentiometer dial connected to the motor allows the motor rpm to
be adjusted.
Basic Assembly
• Motor
• Brackets
• Cooling fan
• Potentiometer
• Disconnect
• Enclosure
The power supply to the fan should be wired into the disconnect junction box. See wiring diagram included in fan
submittal.
The basic VG-BLDC assembly has two control options:
1. Dial on motor
2. 0-10 VDC
NOTE
VG-BLDC motors are only available on USF-B7 selections.
USF Motor Technology Configuration
Not all motor technologies are available at every motor size and phase. Below is a general overview of motor
technology via phase and horsepower.
