The present disclosure generally relates to systems and devices for spraying fluid materials such as paints, stains, and the like, and more specifically, but not by limitation, to a dual voltage electromagnet motor for an airless fluid sprayer. In one example, a dual-voltage electric airless fluid sprayer is provided and includes a fluid reservoir and a pump configured to receive fluid from the fluid reservoir. An electric motor is operably coupled to the pump and includes a plurality of windings. The plurality of windings include a first winding portion having a first wire gauge and a first number of windings and a second winding portion having a second wire gauge and second number of windings. A power-module receiving portion is configured to receive a power module to couple one of the first or second winding portions to a source of electrical power.
