Dear Sir,

In connection with your recent enquiry for a 1/2 HP. Synchronous Motor, we regret to say the only available machine we have to offer is 1/8 HP. of which we enclose Blue Print code 10199 showing dimensions.

This Motor will run at a synchronous speed of 1500 rpm. on 50 cycle supply, and will develop approximately 100% of full load starting torque.

If this Motor is of interest to you, our Head Office will quote in due course.

Yours faithfully,
KLAXON LIMITED.

R.C. Young

Technical Department.
