Simotics low voltage motors

As low-voltage motors, we refer to those units that have a three-phase power supply in the range of 200 to 690 V , and are able to cover the power spectrum from 0.06 kW to several thousand kW . These short-armature motors are produced in various rotation speeds, with the possibility of continuous speed regulation with the help of a frequency converter and various types of mechanical gearboxes.

Technology for your needs

This category also includes Simotics electric motors from Siemens , which offers the most comprehensive range of low-voltage motors worldwide . The three-phase motors of this Czech manufacturer are ideal for anyone looking for applications in which an electric motor with a power of 0.09 kW to 5,300 kW will be used. 

The motors can either be directly connected to the mains supply, but they can also be paired with SINAMICS drives , making them suitable for variable speed operation. Siemens also strives to constantly push its low-voltage motor technology forward, thanks to which it offers a whole range of technological gadgets that you will certainly appreciate during operation.

One of them is, for example, Sidrive IQ , a digital platform for low-voltage motors that connects the world of hardware with a software solution. This platform offers operators of low-voltage electric motors the possibility of analyzing data from the device , thanks to which the operational and status data of individual components of the application become clearer. It also helps identify maintenance requirements and optimization potential.

Siemens offers a wide range of industrial low-voltage asynchronous electric motors IEC, offering power from 0.09 to more than 5 MW. These motors provide high reliability and efficiency. Suitable for most industries and applications. They are suitable for most industries , meet all standard requirements and comply with international and local regulations.

Everyone chooses

Siemens divides its offer into a basic series of low-voltage electric motors, which are suitable for a wide range of standard drives in an industrial environment. Thanks to their simple design, they offer maximum flexibility and minimal installation costs .

Another category is industrial engines for use in demanding conditions . They are suitable for applications in a normal industrial environment, as well as in harsh conditions, where they can work in the range from – 50 to + 60 degrees Celsius. They can be operated in humid, dusty or vibrating environments as well as aggressive atmospheres. This makes it ideally suited for the petrochemical industry and the process industry in general.

Simotics XP include a category of motors with increased explosion protection . Thanks to this, they can be in operation 24 hours a day, even in the most extreme conditions. This also applies to the DP-marked category, which offers precise solutions for individual requirements. In this regard, Siemens is able to draw on its many years of experience, thanks to which it can build customized solutions for clients.

Engines of the future

The last category is the Simotics SD motors , the next generation of low-voltage motors, which, thanks to their robustness and number of digital functions, herald the future of the entire segment . They work reliably in highly dusty environments full of vibrations. They are therefore optimal for a number of industries, including the most demanding ones.
