2.2 KW 3 Phase Induction Motor

Mmmm. That is a face mounting motor, so wont work without mods to the install.

Face mount to flange or foot mount is just a set of parts, the supplier should be able to supply or fit a foot mount kit at minimal cost, my motor supplier has a price for a given spec of motor and supplies foot, face or flange at the same price or the parts to swap it over.

You could share with the class where 3 phase motors are available cheaper if you have a source of good quality units for low prices? :-)

Price probably excludes VAT (not sure if the other one does or not). Motor size is OK, frame size a bit larger. So If I can modify a pulley and basically the rest works, this might be the way to go. In which case going with a 3KW 100 frame motor might be OK then?

Managed to get a 3KW motor (100 frame size) from a colleague at work that has some machining stuff.
