Small DC-motor

Small DC-motor

(OP)
I'm looking for a small compact DC motor to run a blower for a fuel cell application
I need it to be very well sealed (Submersible) and highly dependable, anyone out there in the field with an idea of which company I should contact for this?

I'm talking dimensions of :
Diameter 1.5 inches
Length   2.0 inches

pressfitted inside a small heat sink.
thanks

RE: Small DC-motor

Suggestion: Visit
http://www.thomasregister.com
and type dc motor under Product/Service
This returns some dc motor types, e.g. Motors: Brushless DC offered by 181 Companies with their contact info and product offer (Emerson, Kollmorgen,.........). Usually, secretaries take it from there.

RE: Small DC-motor


Such motors are available. The Thomas Register or W.W. Grainger are both good sources. However, my first thought is whether this application will require a UL listing and possibly an explosion proof motor. I am not well versed in fuel cell applications so if this is an erroneous answer, I apologize in advance.
