GAST Air Motor 6AM-ARV-54
The 6AM-ARV-54 is the metric IEC D80 flange version of GAST's 3 kW (4 HP) 6AM rotary-vane air motor: reversible, 3,000 rpm, 1/2" BSP ports and a 6 mm keyed shaft, weighing 10.8 kg.

for Hazardous Areas
The 6AM is GAST's 3 kW (4 HP) frame, and the -ARV-54 is its metric build: IEC D80 flange, 1/2" BSP ports and a metric-keyed shaft so it mates with standard European gear reducers and couplings. It is reversible and runs over a 300–3,000 rpm range set by supply pressure, delivering around 13 Nm peak torque at the shaft.
Frame-level torque and air-consumption values are drawn from GAST's 6AM datasheets for the sister model 6AM-NRV-7A and marked indicative. The motor can be run stalled or overloaded for long periods, operates in any plane with adequate lubrication, ships with an AC990 muffler, and is rated II 2 GD c T4 for Zone 1 and 2 hazardous areas.
