SIMOTICS XP Explosion-Proof Motors

General description

SIMOTICS XP, the consistent platform for explosion protected motors represents the reliable, easy and fast way to achieve maximum safety. This motor series covers all hazardous zones - 1, 2, 21 and 22 - with a technologically seamless concept.

Based on decades of experience and expertise in explosion protection our new, future orientated generation of rugged explosion-proof motors for low voltage satisfies the highest quality standards combining reliability, high efficiency, and robustness even under extreme conditions.
The motors are certified for use in explosive gases and dusts. They are available in all common ex protection types. For use in explosive
· gases in ex protection types "flameproof enclosure – Ex db eb", "increased safety – Ex eb" and "non sparking – Ex ec"
· dusts in ex protection types Ex tb and Ex tc.

In addition the SIMOTICS XP motors are characterized by short delivery times, accelerated project execution times, lower effort associated with planning procurement, through engineering and integration all the way up to service and stock inventory. All of this results to reduced lifecycle costs.

The SIMOTICS XP has been especially developed for pumps, fans, compressors, extruders, separators and agitators in process industries such as Chemicals, Petrochemicals, Oil & Gas, HVAC, Food & Beverage. They cover a power range from 0.09 up to 1000 kW, degrees of protection from IP55 to IP65, they are suitable for direct-on-line (DOL) as well as converter operation (VSD).

SIMOTICS XP is also declined in an industry specific version SIMOTICS XP Chemstar for Chemical Industry or Oil&Gas.

SIMOTICS XP – the consistent platform for all explosion protected low-voltage motors, based on the SIMOTICS system construction kit
