Electric Motors

Electric motors are three-phase asynchronous motors driving pumps, fans and machines, with foot (B3), flange (B5) or small flange (B14) mounting options.
They are used for pump motor replacement, new pump sets and applications in explosive atmospheres. The product range includes motors from 0.55 kW to 75 kW, 1450 and 2900 rpm, IE2 and ATEX ex-proof.
Main Applications
- Pump motor replacement
- New pump sets
- Fan and compressor drives
- Explosive atmosphere applications (ATEX)
- Conveyor and machine drives
Technical Data
| Type | Three-phase asynchronous electric motor |

Material Options
| Part | Standard motor | Ex-proof (ATEX) motor |
|---|---|---|
| Environment | Normal industrial | Explosive gas / dust atmosphere |
| Housing | Aluminium or cast (depending on model) | Flameproof cast housing |
| Certificate | Depending on model | ATEX certificate |
| Typical use | Pumps, fans, machines | Chemicals, fuel, paint |
Which material? When replacing a motor, power, speed, mounting (B3/B5/B14), shaft diameter and flange size must match the existing equipment exactly. For explosive atmospheres the zone and gas group must be stated.
