Abstract
An electric motor is provided including a stator, a rotor, a motor spindle coupled to the rotor and extending along a center axis, a first end cap formed on a first side of the stator, a second end cap formed on a second side of the stator and secured to the first end cap to form a first compartment around the stator and the rotor, an electro-magnetic brake module disposed on a side of the second end cap opposite the stator and engaged with the motor spindle, and a motor cover mounted on the second end cap to form a second compartment around the electro-magnetic brake module. The first end cap, the second end cap, and the motor cover form a substantially watertight seal around the stator, the rotor, and the position sensor assembly.
