Cleco A6R332M Reversible Axial Piston Air Motor | 1.9 HP | 290 RPM | 130 (ft-lbs) Stall Torque | Rear Exhaust

When a machine drive needs moderate output speed with strong pneumatic torque, the Cleco A6R332M Reversible Axial Piston Air Motor delivers 1.9 HP, 290 RPM free speed, and 130 ft-lbs stall torque. Axial piston construction uses air-driven pistons arranged along the motor axis to produce controlled rotary force, making this motor a practical choice for equipment that needs more load-starting capability than a high-speed direct-drive air motor. The 11.9:1 gear ratio reduces output speed while increasing usable torque for machinery drives, indexing systems, valve actuation, and other air-powered equipment.

The A6R332M belongs to Cleco’s A6 Series axial piston motor family and includes reversible operation, allowing clockwise or counterclockwise rotation when installed with the proper pneumatic controls. Its rear exhaust configuration routes exhaust air away from the working end of the motor, while the face mounting layout and 1-1/8" diameter keyed spindle support integration into brackets, fixtures, frames, and OEM machine designs. Rated at 62 CFM air consumption and 90 PSI, this motor should be matched to a properly sized compressed air system before installation.

Features:

• Axial piston motor construction provides controlled rotary output for machinery drive applications that require torque at lower speeds.
• Reversible control supports forward or reverse rotation when paired with the correct valve and air circuit.
• Rear exhaust helps direct exhaust air away from the spindle end, which can simplify integration in enclosed equipment layouts.
• 11.9:1 gear ratio balances speed reduction and torque output for applications that need more RPM than lower-speed A6 Series models.
• 1-1/8" diameter keyed spindle provides a positive drive connection for compatible couplings, sprockets, pulleys, or custom machine interfaces.
• Face mounting configuration supports direct installation into machine frames, brackets, and engineered drive assemblies.
• 62 CFM air consumption rating gives maintenance teams and OEM designers a clear air supply requirement for system sizing.
• Maximum overhung load rating of 1000 lbs at stall supports properly designed belt, chain, or side-load applications when the load location follows manufacturer limits.

Made in USA:

Applications:

• Industrial machinery drives requiring reversible pneumatic rotation and moderate output speed.
• Valve actuation, indexing equipment, and positioning systems where air-powered motion is preferred over electric drive.
• Mixer, agitator, and process equipment applications that require defined starting torque and controlled RPM.
• Conveyor, winch, and fixture drive systems where torque, air supply, and overhung load must be reviewed during design.
• Plant maintenance and MRO replacement work for existing pneumatic drive assemblies using compatible Cleco A6 Series mounting and spindle geometry.
• OEM equipment builds where a face-mounted, rear-exhaust axial piston air motor fits the machine layout.

FAQs:

• Q: How does the A6R332M differ from the slower A6R331M?
  A: The A6R332M runs faster, with a 290 RPM free speed, but produces less stall torque at 130 ft-lbs. The A6R331M is the lower-speed, higher-torque option in the same A6 Series group.
• Q: What does stall torque mean for this air motor?
  A: Stall torque is the torque produced when the motor stops under load. For the A6R332M, that value is 130 ft-lbs, but the final motor selection should also consider starting torque, operating speed, mounting, air supply, duty cycle, and load location.
• Q: What compressor capacity is needed for this motor?
  A: Cleco lists air consumption at 62 CFM with performance rated at 90 PSI. The compressor, regulator, hose, valves, and fittings should be sized to maintain the required flow and pressure while the motor is under load.
• Q: Can this air motor be used as a replacement for an electric motor?
  A: It may be suitable when the required horsepower, RPM, torque, mounting, spindle style, and available air supply match the application. A sizing review is recommended before replacing an electric motor with any pneumatic motor.
• Q: Are accessories included with the A6R332M?
  A: The catalog lists optional equipment such as Exhaust Muffler Part 813485, Pendent Control Kits, Lubricating Oil Part 533485, and Motor and Gear Lube Part A123771. These should be treated as optional unless specifically included on the order.
