EC Gold Series Permanent Magnet AC Motors
The ABB EC Gold Series motors are high-efficiency, synchronous permanent magnet (PM) motors engineered for compact design, superior performance, and easy interchangeability with standard induction motors. Designed for industrial applications including HVAC, pumps, fans, and conveyors, the EC Gold Series provides IE4-level efficiency, improved speed regulation, and reduced energy losses.
Key Points
- Synchronous permanent magnet motor designed for high efficiency and power density.
- Compact NEMA-compatible frame for seamless retrofit and installation.
- Rated IP54 with 155°C windings for reliable operation in demanding environments.
- Ideal for HVAC, refrigeration, water/wastewater, packaging, and material handling.
- Meets or exceeds IE4 efficiency levels with no rotor losses typical of induction motors.
- Non-integral motor and drive configuration for flexible pairing with PM drives.
- Available in TENV and TEAO models with CE/cULus compliance.
- Up to 40% lighter footprint compared to equivalent induction motors (e.g., 2HP 1800RPM: 31 lbs vs. 43 lbs).
