Although NORD DRIVESYSTEMS is known for its IE4 and IE5 motors, it’s new single-phase asynchronous motor features a new design and improved class efficiency for lower performance ranges.

The new thoroughly revised single-phase asynchronous motor from NORD now corresponds to efficiency class IE2. For suppliers to the construction, food and agricultural industries, the new single-phase asynchronous motor is an attractive offer.

The company thoroughly revised its existing single-phase asynchronous motor, and the new single-phase asynchronous motor can be used in a power range from 0.12 to 1.5 kW as before, but now corresponds to efficiency class IE2 according to the Ecodesign Regulation 2019/1781.

A new electronic relay replaces the previous mechanical one. The design was also refreshed and the capacitors are mounted in the terminal box. Therefore, the motor now also complies with protection class IP66, and is protected against the entry of dust and water.

For simple applications, the revised single-phase asynchronous motors is a cost-effective and efficient drive solution, and is also very practical.

The motor is approved for use in many regions of the world thanks to certification according to the European CE mark, the Chinese CCC standard and the UKCA mark for Great Britain.
