Thunderbolt blower motor configuration

Thu Aug 30, 2018 7:39 pm

Hi y'all. So as we all know, the Thunderbolt came with a 4, 5 and 6M blower. Did all 3 configurations use the same 7.5 HP 3 ph motor/the same 10 HP single ph motor? I ask because I MAY buy a blower soon (5M) and I need to know what motor to get. Also for the record yes I am aware I am looking at 3,000 bucks but I can't get one from WSS (Long story) so buying new is kind of my only choice right now.
Own and love a Thunderbolt 1000 and a Model 5.

I have many hobbies and interests. And I love them all.

Christian, Lima, Oscah, November, Golf.

I believe it's the other way around. Singe phase will be 7.5HP and vice versa.
My knowledge excels on the Federal Thunderbolt siren and SiraTone EOWS sirens. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
