✔ Optional B34 (foot & face) and B35 (foot & flange) mounting configurations
✔ Designed for continuous duty operation
✔ Maximum energy efficiency and reduced lifetime operating costs

Applications

IE4 motors are ideal for energy-intensive and continuous-duty applications, including:

  • Pumps
  • Fans and ventilation systems
  • Compressors
  • Conveyors
  • Heavy industrial machinery
  • Process and production equipment

IEC Frame Sizes Explained

Motor frame sizes are standardised under International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) guidelines, ensuring compatibility across manufacturers.

The frame size defines key mounting dimensions such as:

  • Shaft height
  • Mounting hole positions
  • Shaft diameter

This allows motors with the same IEC frame size to be interchanged without mechanical modification.

Motor Mounting Configurations

✔ B3 – Foot Mount (Standard)

  • Base-mounted motor
  • Most common configuration

✔ B34 – Foot & Face Mount

  • Foot and face mounting
  • Ideal for flexible installation setups

✔ B35 – Foot & Flange Mount

  • Foot and flange mounting
  • Suitable for rigid and heavy-duty installations

Pole Configuration Explained

The number of poles determines motor speed:

  • 2 Pole Motors
    Approx. 3000 RPM
    Suitable for high-speed applications
  • 4 Pole Motors
    Approx. 1500 RPM
    General-purpose industrial use
  • 6 Pole Motors
    Approx. 1000 RPM
    Lower speed with higher torque

Energy Efficiency Benefits (IE4)

IE4 motors are classified as super premium efficiency under International Electrotechnical Commission standards, offering:

  • Maximum reduction in energy consumption
  • Significantly lower operating costs over time
  • Improved efficiency in continuous operation
  • Ideal for energy-critical and high-usage environments

Build & Construction

  • Cast iron construction (75kW – 200kW)
    Designed for heavy-duty industrial environments, offering strength, durability, and long service life

Important Information

✔ Designed for use with three-phase power supplies
✔ Ideal for continuous and high-load industrial applications
✔ Ensure correct motor sizing and application suitability

Installation Note
