IE2 Series Motors

All electric motors are required to meet the IE2 standard of energy efficiency. The motor efficiency ratings are based on the efficiency classes defined in the IEC 60034-30 standard published by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). These range from IE1 (low efficiency) to IE4 (super-premium efficiency).

All single-speed, three-phase squirrel-cage induction motors with two, four or six poles and output ratings from 0.75 to 375kW have to achieve the IE2 efficiency level.

Motors rated from 7.5 to 375kW either have to achieve the IE3 efficiency level, or meet the IE2 level and be equipped with a variable speed drive.

Euro Drive Systems motors exceed the IE2 requirement. There are 4 basic mounting arrangements. Full technical information available here or call 01543 676792 for some useful advice on lead-time and pricing.
