    Delivering reliable, explosion-safe rotary power in demanding industrial environments, the Chicago Pneumatic MR8401-230-K-ATEX reversible vane air motor offers 630 W of consistent output where safety and performance are non-negotiable. Engineered for hazardous locations requiring ATEX certification, this pneumatic motor is purpose-built for facilities handling flammable gases, vapours, or combustible dust, providing operators with confidence that their air-powered equipment meets the strictest international safety standards. The MR8401-230-K-ATEX operates with an air consumption of 14 l/s at load, matched by a maximum air flow of 14 l/s at peak power, ensuring efficient energy use throughout the working cycle. The 3/8-inch BSP air inlet thread integrates cleanly with standard pneumatic supply lines, simplifying installation in existing workshop and production environments. Its reversible functionality adds operational versatility, allowing direction changes without additional tooling or complex retrofitting, which reduces downtime and increases productivity across shift operations. As a robust pneumatic motor, the unit suits integration into custom machinery, automated assembly lines, and specialist process equipment where electric motors present an ignition risk. Whether embedded within conveyor systems, grinding assemblies, or mixing apparatus, this air motor delivers smooth, controllable torque with the inherent safety benefits that only compressed-air-driven technology can offer. Industries including petrochemical processing, offshore oil and gas, pharmaceutical manufacturing, and paint finishing will find it an indispensable component for safely driving rotary applications in classified Zone environments.Product Feature: Low friction and lubrication-free design of vanes for ruggedness. Sustain stall torque loading indefinitely. Short and compact planetary gear system for versatile solutions Long lasting efficiency with low air consumption design Strong starting torque for mobility during operation About MachineRefurb: MachineRefurb is an e-commerce platform specialising in replacement parts, spares and consumables for construction, agriculture and industrial machinery, serving customers across Ireland, the United Kingdom and Europe.
