Frequently Asked Questions
Are these hoist motors new or rebuilt?
The motors listed on this page are new Imperial units stocked through EMR’s authorized distributor relationship with Imperial Electric. EMR separately stocks rebuilt hoist motors from our own shop, listed on the rebuilt hoist motors page, and we will recommend whichever path fits your job.
How do I confirm a listed motor is available right now?
Call (609) 392 6149 or send the model number through our quote form. Inventory moves as units ship, so the table reflects the specifications we stock rather than a live count, and a phone call gets you a same day answer on availability, pricing, and freight.
What if the specification I need is not in the table?
Contact us with the nameplate data anyway. Additional Imperial configurations can be sourced through our distributor relationship, a rebuilt unit from our shop may match your spec, and in many cases repairing or rewinding your existing motor is the fastest and most economical path of all.
What information do you need from me to match a motor?
The existing motor’s nameplate data: horsepower, RPM, voltage, and frame designation, plus anything unusual about the mounting or coupling. A photo of the nameplate is the fastest way to get all of it right, and our team will confirm fit before anything is ordered.
Do you ship hoist motors nationwide?
Yes. Stocked motors ship by freight from our Trenton, New Jersey warehouse to job sites nationwide, and our East Coast location puts the major NJ, NY, and PA elevator markets within particularly fast reach.
Can EMR help with installation fit issues like bases and couplers?
Yes. EMR performs base and coupler surveys that document the existing geometry before ordering, manufactures the MOD flexible coupler for motor to machine connections, and fabricates custom motor mounts and beds in our machine shop, so the motor you order actually installs.
