Cast Aluminum Motors

Cast Aluminum Motors

Cast aluminum motors are electric motors that utilize cast aluminum in their construction, particularly for the motor housing and sometimes for the rotor. These motors are known for their lightweight, corrosion resistance, and efficient heat dissipation.

Features and Specifications

  • Cast aluminium totally enclosed fan-cooled (TEFC)
  • Light industrial / agriculture / air movement
  • 0.09 – 18.5kW
  • Frame 56 – 160
  • Three-Phase 400V / 525V / 690V 50Hz & 60Hz
  • 2, 4, 6 & 8 pole
  • IP55
  • F-class insulation, B-class temperature rise
  • IE1
  • IEC60034 & IEC60072

Cast aluminum motors offer numerous benefits, including reduced weight, efficient heat dissipation, and excellent corrosion resistance, making them suitable for a wide range of applications. They are particularly advantageous in environments where weight reduction, efficient cooling, and resistance to harsh conditions are critical. However, considerations such as cost and material strength should be taken into account when selecting these motors for specific applications.
