The Fasco Able MS112M-2 is a three-phase induction motor. The rated output is 4 kW. The motor is two-pole, which at 50 Hz gives a synchronous speed of 3,000 rpm. The rated voltage is 415 V. The housing is frame size 112 M in foot-mounted form. The protection class is IP55. The efficiency is 85.5 per cent at full load, 85.3 per cent at 75 per cent load and 83.2 per cent at half load. The motor weighs 45 kg. At full load it delivers 13.3 Nm. Mounting arrangements to IEC 60034-7: B3, B5 and B14. The motor is built in China. The data is based on the Australian MEPS registration under standard AS/NZS 1359.5:2000 (Legacy); measured to IEC 60034-2-1 (Edition 2.0). Rated output across the Fasco Able range ranges from 0.75 to 160 kW; the MS112M-2 sits at the bottom of that range with 4 kW. Its immediate neighbours are the MS100L-2 below it with 3 kW and the MS132S1-2 above it with 5.5 kW. 30 Fasco Able models are on record. The model is listed under Electric motors. 24 verified figures from 1 source are on file.

Fasco Able – other models: the collective page of MEPS-registered three-phase motors outside the named ranges, 0.75 to 160 kW, 2- to 6-pole, 415 V, IP55, made in China

This page gathers the Fasco Able three-phase motors the Australian energy-efficiency register (GEMS/MEPS) could not assign to a named range. The model names follow two schemes: the MS and Y series encode frame size and pole count in the IEC pattern common in China, for example MS160L-4 for a four-pole motor of frame size 160L or Y-280S-4 for the four-pole 280S version; alongside them are models such as MS801 and MS802 with their own numbering scheme.

The register lists here 30 versions with 0.75 to 160 kW, two- to six-pole, uniformly rated for 415 V. Full-load efficiencies range from 75.6 to 95.3% and at 75% load from 75.8 to 94.9%; none of the motors carries a High Efficiency classification. Frame sizes run from 80 to 315 under IEC, all motors carry protection rating IP55 with mounting codes from B3/B5/B14 to B3/B35/B5; manufacturing is exclusively in China, tested to the older AS/NZS 1359.5:2000 standard with test method B.

With a power band from under a kilowatt to 160 kW, the programme covers both small auxiliary drives and large industrial motors for pumps, fans and compressors; the uniform 415 V rating and older test standard point to a programme positioned mainly in the price-sensitive spares business for IEC standard motors.

When buying used or replacing, what matters is bearing condition and a checked insulation resistance of the winding, visible overheating marks on the terminal box and fan cover, the condition of shaft and key, and a legible nameplate with frame size, pole count and voltage. Since none of the motors carries a current High Efficiency classification, an efficiency comparison with newer IE2/IE3 models is worthwhile when replacing.

Frequently asked questions

How much power does the Fasco Able MS112M-2 have?

The Fasco Able MS112M-2 delivers 4 kW.

What to check before buying

  • Match the data plate against the order: frame size, mounting and rating have to agree.
  • Check the ingress rating against the installation site — outdoors or in dust the demands differ.
  • Hold the mounting form and dimensions against the existing seat before ordering.
  • The pole count sets the speed — when replacing an older unit, compare this first.
  • For used units, ask about winding condition and bearing play.
  • Ask about parts availability for this series — the running costs hang on it.
