IE3 Electric Motors Articles

In most facilities motors account for the largest share of the electricity bill, and this is exactly where the IE3 class earns its place. IE3 defines the premium efficiency tier in IEC 60034-30-1 and certifies how little energy a motor wastes at rated load. Because we produce our IE3 motors in-house and deliver them from stock, HEM Motor controls quality from start to finish and supplies quickly when you need it.

In an IE3 motor, copper, iron and friction losses are reduced. In practice you feel this in three ways: a lower running temperature, quieter operation and a visibly smaller energy bill at year-end. Thanks to standard IEC frame sizes it drops straight into the place of an older motor, so no extra mechanical rework is needed for the switch.

• On continuously running lines, savings repay the investment quickly.
• Longer bearing and winding life thanks to reduced heating.
• IP55 protection and Class F insulation for demanding environments.
• Speed to match torque needs with 2 to 8-pole options.

If you aim for higher efficiency, also consider our IE4 and IE5 series. Let us pinpoint the right IE3 power and speed for your operation together; for current stock and a quote call +90 (532) 345 49 86 or reach us via our contact page.
