Explosion-Proof Power
for Hazardous Areas

The 6AM-NRV-7A is the standard imperial build of GAST's 3 kW frame: a face-mounted, four-vane reversible motor with 1/2" NPT ports and a 16 mm keyed shaft. It delivers 13 Nm maximum torque and 9.5 Nm at its 3,000 rpm free speed, consuming about 60 L/s of air at full output and 7 bar.

The face mount couples directly to GAST's AG809/AG811 worm gear reducers (10:1 and 20:1) for high-torque, low-speed drives. Like the rest of the AM range the motor is controlled by air throttling and pressure, can be stalled indefinitely, runs cool and is CE / ATEX II 2 GD c T4 marked for Zone 1 and 2.
