The broad range of high voltage AC induction motors consists of cast iron fan cooled motors, modular welded frame motors with different cooling options and modular slip ring motors. Each motor is designed individually to meet all requirements of the specific application.
2013-07-10: With stall times longer than their start times, moderate inrush current levels and a choice of cooling systems, ABB’s new high inertia motors are ideal for driving large fans. Those are used across a broad range of industries and are currently in demand by plant operators seeking to comply with new air quality regulations such as the Clean Air Act in the USA. High reliability is assured, as the high inertia motors are based on ABB’s proven modular induction motor platform.
2013-05-30: Low inrush current (LIC) motors are generally used in weak supply networks where the high starting currents typically drawn by regular motors could cause disturbances. ABB’s LIC motors are based on a proven high voltage modular induction motor platform. They are especially needed in sectors such as water, marine and COG. The motors can be supplied with non-sparking (Ex nA) or pressurized (Ex p) protection for use in explosive atmospheres. To ensure the highest performance, the LIC motors are now designed for an optimum match with the requirements of their specific application.
2013-04-05: The technical article explains in details the new high voltage modular induction motor AMI 800 2-pole, the new high voltage flameproof motor AMD 900 and ABB's drilling motor portfolio.
2012-11-23: High power induction motor features robust construction, excellent reliability, reduced maintenance requirements and a long lifetime even when operated in harsh environments. It is ideal for driving pumps and compressors, especially in the chemical, oil & gas, water and wastewater sectors. With the new 2-pole motor the range extends from IEC frame size 400 to 800, therefore covering all general high voltage needs in today’s markets.
2012-05-14 - The Holcim Group, one of the world’s leading suppliers of cement and aggregates, carried out a modernization project at its Merone plant in Como, Italy, with the help of ABB Motors and Drives. The project resulted in significant absorption reductions and lessened maintenance requirements.
