With the recently introduced Motor Mounted Line, Innomotics combines highly efficient permanent magnet motors with a mounted frequency converter. The compact system is suitable for applications such as pumps, fans, or compressors.
The permanent magnet motor features a particularly high power density. Compared to asynchronous motors, a smaller frame size can be chosen for the same power output. Additionally, high torques are available even at low speeds, which supports operation under variable load conditions. The direct combination with the frequency converter allows for versatile design options when installing the compact overall system.
Another significant advantage is its energy efficiency. The motor achieves efficiency class IE5 according to IEC/TS 60034-30-2, while the converter is rated IE2 according to EN 61800-9-2. Together, this results in a system efficiency class of IES5. This significantly reduces energy consumption during operation and lessens the load on the power grid infrastructure. With "Evaluate", Innomotics offers an online tool that allows plant operators to calculate potential CO2 reduction, energy savings, and amortization periods.
The Motor Mounted Line is available in frame sizes 71, 90, and 132 mm and covers a power range from 0.37 to 22 kW. The nominal speeds are 1500 and 3000 rpm. The housing is made of aluminum, with a standard IP rating of IP55. For systems up to 7.5 kW, the converter is passively cooled, with an IP rating of IP65.
Integration into automation environments is ensured through support for common fieldbus systems. Modbus RTU is available as standard, with options to add CANopen, PROFIBUS, or Ethernet-based interfaces. Furthermore, there are various equipment options such as a potentiometer, membrane keypad, or MMI displays for operation, as well as different connection solutions.
The system is pre-configured by Innomotics and can be commissioned without complex parameterization. With the free Innomotics MD Connect PC Tool, parameterization, monitoring, and troubleshooting of the converter can be performed. Retrofitting existing line-powered motors is straightforward. For operators, this means simplified installation and commissioning.
