Specs for Nova 1624 lathe motor.

[David Wrate]

Hi all, I'm hoping someone can tell me if the stock, 1.5hp non-DVR motor on the Nova 1624 has a motor data plate with specs. From the conversion threads I know a 145TC frame will work but I'm trying to find a motor with a 22mm shaft so I can avoid the boring out the motor pulley business.
Thanks!

To clarify, you mean the original 1.5 HP motor on the basic belt change lathe, and not the 1.75 HP on the DVR upgrade?

I have both motors.

Looking for the original specs please Mark. (if there even is a data plate.)

This is all there is in the way of a data plate.

Let me know if there's something you need measured.

Thanks ever so much Mark!

A standard NEMA 145 frame is listed as having a 7/8" diameter out put shaft and 7/8" = .875" X 25.4mm = 22.225 mm so it is questionable that it is in fact a 145TC frame motor.

Yeah the 145TC came from conversion threads but you are absolutely right in that the shaft size is bigger than 22mm.
I did a bunch of sleuthing today and discovered that it's a metric frame B14 80
