An electrical motor will rapidly degrade if the internal temperature exceeds the insulation temperature limit.

Insulation Class Temperature Limits
(oC)
A1) 105
B1) 130
H2) 155
F2) 180

1) Hydroscopic insulation - avoided for open and outdoor locations - shortened lifetime if condensation in the insulation occurs

2) Non-hydroscopic insulation - preferred for open and outdoor locations, higher ambient temperatures ..
