Product OverviewThe A16C series are coreless (brush) micro motors with an outer diameter of 16 mm (φ16mm). The series includes multiple sub-models (examples: A16C-01, -04, -06, -07, -09, -11, -14, -15, -16, -17, -18, etc.) with different lengths, applied voltages and electrical/mechanical performance tuned for a range of applications including safety devices (e.g. gas detectors), medical and industrial equipment. Each sub-model provides data on terminal resistance, no-load speed/current, start-up characteristics, torque, efficiency and output.
