28.06.2021 Enhanced range of electric motors for process industries

Siemens, Nuremberg, Germany, is now offering its flameproof, low-voltage motor series Simotics XP across the entire power spectrum from 0.25-460kW in gas groups IIB and IIC. Furthermore, with the availability of premium IE3 efficiency, the low-voltage motors are ready for future energy efficiency requirements. In addition, the company offers motors with Chemstar technology, which provide a tailored motor solution for the chemical industry with pre-configured, chemical-specific options.


All common types of protection are covered by the consistent and integrated Simotics XP platform for explosion-proof motors and can be easily configured and adapted using the Drive Technology Configurator provided by Siemens. Simotics XP motors offer plant operators and machine builders a simple spare parts inventory, standardized tools, and ordering processes. They run reliably and trouble-free under extreme operating conditions in aggressive atmospheres, both on the mains and on the frequency converters, and meet the requirements of the new, stricter EU Ecodesign Directive (ErP). From July 2021, the high energy efficiency class IE3 is also required for explosion-proof motors. The Simotics XP portfolio is available in energy efficiency class IE3 and in major parts also in energy efficiency class IE4. Motors with increased safety in the Ex eb version must meet energy efficiency class IE2 from start of July 2023. IE3 is already standard for Simotics XP motors in the Ex eb version. www.siemens.com
