If you are looking for a 2.2 kW electric motor price and reliable 2.2 kW electric motor supply, you are in the right place. As one of the most popular power ratings for pumps, fans, compressors, conveyors and gearbox drives, the 2.2 kW (roughly 3 HP) three-phase and single-phase motor is available from HEM Motor with stock availability, fast quotation and short lead times. Because we work with a manufacturer-direct supply approach, you can find the exact motor you need in a strong price-performance balance across 2-pole (3000 rpm), 4-pole (1500 rpm) and 6-pole (1000 rpm) options. This page explains everything you should know before buying a 2.2 kW motor, from frame size to efficiency class, and guides you to the right place for electric motor prices.
Pole, Speed and Frame Selection for a 2.2 kW Motor
The 2.2 kW rating is typically built in 90L and, in some applications, 100L IEC frame sizes. The first step in choosing the right motor is clarifying the speed your machine requires, because the same 2.2 kW produces different torque and speed at different pole counts. Two-pole motors suit high-speed centrifugal pumps and fans, four-pole motors suit balanced general-industry applications, and six-pole motors are preferred for low-speed, high-torque mixers and conveyors.
Frame material also matters. Aluminium-bodied 2.2 kW motors stand out for light weight and heat dissipation, while cast iron body models provide mechanical strength and long life in vibrating environments. You can review which body suits you in our cast iron body motors guide.
Typical Applications of a 2.2 kW Motor by Pole Count
| Pole / Speed | Torque Character | Typical Application |
|---|---|---|
| 2-pole / ~3000 rpm | Low torque, high speed | Centrifugal pump, blower, high-speed fan |
| 4-pole / ~1500 rpm | Balanced torque and speed | General industry, conveyor, gearbox input |
| 6-pole / ~1000 rpm | High torque, low speed | Mixer, heavy-start drive, crane auxiliary |

2.2 kW in IE3 and IE4 Efficiency: Price-Performance Balance
At 2.2 kW, the efficiency class is a critical decision for both current regulations and long-term energy cost. Under prevailing rules, IE3 premium efficiency motors are the standard in this power band; for facilities with continuous operation and high annual running hours, IE4 super premium efficiency motors make a clear difference in the energy bill. Evaluating purchase price and operating cost together is the only way to see true price-performance.
- IE3 motor: Wide stock, fast delivery and balanced initial investment, the general-industry standard.
- IE4 motor: Lower losses and faster payback under continuous load and long running hours.
- Correct pole selection: Avoiding oversizing reduces both first cost and consumption.
You can find the difference between efficiency classes in our IE4 electric motors category. For IE3 motor supply from stock see our IE3 asynchronous electric motors product page, and for super premium needs our IE4 standard electric motors page.
B3, B5 and B14 Mounting: Choosing by Your Machine
How the 2.2 kW motor connects to your machine must be clarified before ordering. B3 foot-mounted motors bolt to the floor or base and are the most common type. B5 large-flange motors bolt directly to a pump or gearbox housing. B14 small-flange models are preferred for compact machines and tight mounting spaces. Choosing the wrong mounting type is one of the most frequent ordering mistakes.
| Mounting Type | Connection | Where Preferred |
|---|---|---|
| B3 (foot) | Foot bolted to floor | Conveyor, belt-pulley, general drive |
| B5 (large flange) | Flange directly to housing | Pump, gearbox, monobloc assembly |
| B14 (small flange) | Threaded small flange | Compact machine, tight-space mounting |
You can see all mounting types and order with the correct code in our electric motor mounting types category, and choose the right body from our B5 flange electric motors and B3 foot electric motors pages.
Single-Phase or Three-Phase? Grid Compatibility at 2.2 kW
2.2 kW is a power band that can run on both 220V single-phase and 380/400V three-phase grids. For industrial plants with a three-phase supply, a three-phase 2.2 kW motor is both more efficient and more trouble-free. For workshops, farms and small businesses with single-phase (220V), a single-phase 2.2 kW motor or an auxiliary-equipment solution is offered. Stating your grid type before ordering ensures the right motor arrives the first time.
You can find the limits of running a three-phase motor on a single-phase supply in our article on running a three-phase motor on 220V single phase. To avoid common mistakes when buying in this small-power band, our guide on mistakes made when buying an electric motor is also helpful.
What Determines the Price of a 2.2 kW Electric Motor?
The price-performance of two motors with the same 2.2 kW label varies significantly with their material and build quality. Copper winding quality, bearing type, efficiency class, body material and IP protection class all directly affect both the initial price and the motor's lifespan. The cheapest motor is never the most economical; the motor best suited to your operating conditions is. As HEM Motor, with our manufacturer-direct approach, we help you match the right specification with a fair price-performance.
- Efficiency class (IE3/IE4): Determines long-term energy cost.
- Winding and bearing quality: Affect motor life and failure frequency.
- Body and IP protection: Determine resistance to the operating environment.
- Stock availability: Protects fast delivery and project schedule.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many HP is a 2.2 kW electric motor?
2.2 kW corresponds to roughly 3 HP (horsepower). The HP-kW match matters when replacing a motor on an imported machine and when ordering the correct power; taking the nameplate value as the basis is the safest method.
What frame size does a 2.2 kW motor come in?
2.2 kW motors are generally built in 90L frame, and in some poles and designs in 100L frame. Reporting the foot and shaft dimensions of your existing motor ensures an exact match in a replacement order.
Can I get a 2.2 kW motor quickly from stock?
Because 2.2 kW is one of the most requested powers, it is supplied from wide stock in 2/4/6 poles and various mounting types. When you state the pole, frame and mounting type, we respond with a fast quotation and short lead time.
Should I buy IE3 or IE4 at 2.2 kW?
Under current rules, IE3 is the standard at this power. If the motor runs long hours and continuous load, the IE4 super premium choice pays back faster through energy savings. Share your running hours and we recommend the best class for price-performance.
Can I find a single-phase 2.2 kW motor?
If your facility has only single phase (220V), single-phase solutions or auxiliary-equipment use are possible. If you have a three-phase supply, a three-phase 2.2 kW motor is more efficient and trouble-free. Stating your grid type ensures the right product arrives the first time.
A 2.2 kW electric motor chosen with the right power, speed and mounting type serves your facility reliably for many years.
