Marathon lists the 200LTFC1856E3 as a three-phase induction motor. The rated output is 18.5 kW. The motor is six-pole, which at 50 Hz gives a synchronous speed of 1,000 rpm. The rated voltage is 415 V. The housing is frame size 200 L in foot-mounted form. The protection class is IP55. The efficiency is 91 per cent at full load, 92 per cent at 75 per cent load and 90.9 per cent at half load. Mounting arrangements to IEC 60034-7: B3, B5, B35, V1, B14 and B34. The motor is built in China. The figures come from the Australian MEPS register under standard AS/NZS 1359.5:2004; measured to AS/NZS 1359.102.3:2000. Rated output across the Marathon range ranges from 0.75 to 160 kW; the 200LTFC1856E3 sits at the bottom of that range with 18.5 kW. Its immediate neighbours are the XGA180L6 below it with 15 kW and the 180LTFC0224-AU above it with 22 kW. 498 Marathon models across 2 series are on record. The model is listed under Electric motors. 23 verified figures from 1 source are on file.

Marathon – other models: the collective page of MEPS-registered three-phase motors outside the named ranges, part of Regal Rexnord since 2021, frame sizes 80 to 355, 0.75 to 160 kW

This page gathers the Marathon three-phase motors the Australian energy-efficiency register could not assign to a named range. Marathon Electric, according to the company's own history founded in 1893 in Wausau, Wisconsin, now belongs to Regal Rexnord, the US drive-technology group formed in 2021 from the merger of Regal Beloit with parts of Rexnord. The identifiers in the register, such as 132STFC0552-AU or 160LTFC0758E3, recognisably start with the IEC frame size (132, 160), followed by letters for length and construction type and an output designation; the -AU suffix presumably marks a market variant certified specifically for Australia, E3 presumably a version in efficiency class IE3 – neither reading can be reliably confirmed from the dump alone.

The register lists here 487 versions with 0.75 to 160 kW, two- to eight-pole, full-load efficiencies from 76 to 96.2% and at 75% load from 76.1 to 96.4%. Protection is mostly IP55 (344), in many cases extended with IP56 and IP66; frame sizes run from 80 to 355. China (477) dominates the manufacturing countries, with the USA, Chile, Colombia and Congo recorded singly. Testing mostly followed the 2019 GEMS determination (363) and AS/NZS 1359.5:2004 (115), with test method A for the majority; of 486 classified motors, 255 reach the 2005 High Efficiency Level (roughly IE2), 231 remain unclassified.

Marathon is one of the long-established US motor brands and today, within the Regal Rexnord group alongside brands such as Leeson and Rexnord, stands for drive technology in industry and building services; the range chiefly covers standard and pump motors for the North American and the Australia-Pacific markets.

When buying used, bearing condition and a checked insulation resistance of the winding, the condition of shaft and key, visible corrosion on the terminal box and fan cover, and a legible nameplate with frame size, pole count and, where present, the E3 mark for the efficiency class matter; on the many lots made exclusively in China, winding quality and bearing play are worth a look. Spares and service run through the Regal Rexnord network.

Frequently asked questions

How much power does the Marathon 200LTFC1856E3 have?

The Marathon 200LTFC1856E3 delivers 18.5 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.
