Iron HXR Motors

HXR high voltage cast iron motors are extremely efficient, even at partial load, and they have low noise levels. HXR motors are always engineered according to customers’ requirements. Losses are minimized by optimized stator, rotor and fan design. These characteristics are highly appreaciated in pulp & paper, power and water industry, and in similar applications, both in fixed and variable speed use.

High efficiency and top class reliability are achieved through careful design with state-of-the-art tools. Mechanical structure of this motor type based on robust cast iron frame.

Frame
One important component of a rib cooled motor is the rigid cast iron frame. The frame design is closely tied to factors such as mechanical stability, ability to withstand harsh environments, and cooling efficiency.

Cooling
The high voltage cast iron motors are totally enclosed and provided with external fan and cooling ribs. The cooling area of the ribs is large and the form of the cooling rib is optimized. The form of the ribs also keeps the air flow close to the motor surface along its entire length which means efficient cooling and a good self cleaning capability.

The inner surface of the frame and the outer stator core surface are accurately machined to accommodate a shrink fit. This minimizes the thermal resistance between the stator core and the frame and thus improves cooling.

Unidirectional fans are standard on two and four pole motors in order to reduce the noise level and windage losses. Bidirectional fans are used on lower speed motors. The fans are normally made of welded steel plate.
