Powering two 3/8 HP motors for screener

[jay_837]

I have a screener equipment with two 3/8 HP motors mounted on the exterior across from each other.
Do I need to have 2 separate disconnects to power 2 different 3/8 HP motors for screener?
Or what would be the best way to power those 2 motors ? Please advise.
Attached is the link to the product.

You have to have a compliant disconnect for both motors. They do not have to have one per motor. Did this thing not come with a control panel?

my guess is if either motor is off you can't run the thing anyway so why not just have a single disconnect.

You would also have to read the installation instructions. If those little motors have internal thermal protection, all you need is a switch. If not, you will need a Manual Motor Starter at the very least, separate for each one, so those could also function as the disconnects.
