AC motors

An AC motor, or alternating current motor, operates using alternating current (AC). These motors are well-suited for a wide range of industrial applications, such as pumps, fans, and conveyor systems. AC motors are primarily divided into two categories: synchronous motors and asynchronous motors, also known as squirrel cage or induction motors. A synchronous motor rotates in exact synchronization with the frequency of the supply current, whereas an asynchronous (induction) motor operates at a speed slightly different from the supply frequency.

Induction motors (KII)

AC induction motors are ideal for continuous and one-way operation, such as in conveyor systems. Only a capacitor is needed to connect the motor to the mains, making it simple to operate. You can choose a standalone motor with or without a brake. Gear motors are also available, either with inline or right-angle gearboxes. Right-angle versions are also offered with hollow shafts.

Key Features:

  • Multiple power ratings (W): 6, 15, 25, 40, 60, 90

  • With or without gearbox; brake option available

  • Designed for continuous duty, e.g., conveyors

  • High torque output

  • Single-phase: 110/115 or 220/230 VAC
    Three-phase: 200/220/230 or 380/400/415 VAC

3-vaihe-induktiomoottori

3 phase Induction motors (KIIS)

Special attention has been given to gearbox durability and service life, with both inline and right-angle gear options available. The gearbox maximizes the motor’s overall performance. Frame sizes: 90 mm and 110 mm.

Key Features:

  • Multiple power ratings (W): 30, 60, 200

  • Available with or without gearbox; brake option also available

  • Wide speed range when used with a frequency inverter

  • High efficiency

  • Three-phase: 220/230 or 380/400/415 VAC
