Globe VA4 J\&X Air Motor is a compact, high-performance pneumatic motor engineered for industrial applications requiring reliable rotary power in hazardous or moisture-prone environments. Delivering 2.8 horsepower (2.1 kW), this refurbished and fully tested unit offers excellent power-to-weight ratio, making it ideal for use in mixers, conveyors, winches, machine tools, and other systems where electric motors may pose operational or safety risks. The VA4 J\&X model is known for its efficient performance, long service life, and ease of integration into existing pneumatic setups.
This air motor utilizes a vane-type construction that provides consistent torque, even at low speeds, with excellent stall resistance and high starting torque—particularly useful in applications involving variable loads or frequent start-stop cycles. The robust design features a corrosion-resistant aluminum or cast-iron housing, precision-machined internals, and durable vanes that ensure smooth and reliable operation over extended service periods. Its compact footprint and universal mounting options support both OEM and retrofit installations.
The VA4 J\&X is capable of operating under pressures up to 7 bar, with adjustable speed and torque output depending on inlet air pressure and flow. Reversibility is built into the design, allowing for flexible directional control through simple airflow adjustment. Its low operating temperature, non-sparking design, and low maintenance needs make it especially well-suited for hazardous or confined areas such as paint shops, chemical plants, marine vessels, and explosive atmospheres.
In summary, the Globe VA4 J\&X Air Motor offers a dependable and efficient solution for industrial rotary applications. Refurbished to meet original performance standards and rigorously tested for quality assurance, it combines safety, durability, and operational versatility. With its 2.8 HP output and proven pneumatic reliability, this motor is a trusted choice for powering equipment where electric alternatives are impractical or unsafe.
