    Increase energy efficiency in belt-driven systems while reducing wear on your components—these mounts allow you to adjust your motor position to reach the proper belt tension. Choose a mount that fits the NEMA frame of your motor, which is listed on the nameplate.
    Constant-Speed Application—Mounts for constant-speed applications keep your motor in a fixed position while operating equipment with a constant speed, such as fans. You can only adjust the motor position when your system is off.
    Variable-Speed Application—Mounts for variable-speed applications can move while operating to make up for vibration and varying loads. You can adjust the motor position manually while your system is running.
    Automatic Tensioning—Mounts with automatic tensioning have springs, so they maintain dynamic belt tensioning during operation to help the motor bearings, belts, and pullers last longer. They’re good for changing and challenging workloads, such as rock crushers, and excellent for reducing maintenance needed for re-tensioning.
