Efficency

In Europe, the Commission Regulation 640/2009, adopted on 22 July 2009, specifies the requirements regarding the ecodesign of electric motors. In particular, the Regulation establishes the minimum efficiency classes the motors should have.

The application field of the EuP (Energy-using Products) Regulation includes low voltage three-phase squirrel cage-induction motors for 50Hz or 50/60Hz single speed with the following properties:

• Rated voltage up to 1.000 V

• Rated output between 0,75 kW and 375 kW

• Either 2, 4 or 6 poles

• Rated for continuous duty

Brake motors are exempted from the EuP Motor Regulation.

Built-in inverter motors consist of three-phase asynchronous electric motors with an integrated frequency inverter.
The power range is between 0,37 kW and 15,0 kW while the motor frame is from 71 up to 160.
The unit is composed of a high-efficiency 3-phase asynchronous electric motor and a compact frequency inverter placed at the non-drive motor end.

The basic construction is closed, fan cooled and IP 55 enclosure duty.
A built-in inverter motor is able to properly run also under heavy overload conditions thanks to a high thermal reserve; the insulating materials are class F.
The frame is made of aluminum alloy up to 132 frame size and of cast iron for above sizes.

Shields and flanges are made of aluminum up to 90 frame size and of cast iron up to 160 frame size.
The inverter housing is isolated from the motor in order to avoid heat transmission; the inverter heat sink is self-ventilated.
The frequency converter provided is one of the most advanced in terms of design concept as well as used components; control can be chosen between V/F type (frequency voltage control) or SLV type (Sensorless Vector Control).

Built-in inverter motors are easily programmable – using only three buttons.
Some functions, which automatically set parameters (acceleration/deceleration times, V/f ratio etc.), make the programming easier.

On request, motor can be arranged for main Bus fields (Profibus, Interbus-S, Device-Net, etc.).
Built-in inverter motors are designed to be real built-in frequency converter motors and not just as a simple assembly of a standard motor with an inverter.
It is extremely easy to perform the wiring connection.

All the adducted features make the built-in inverter motor series high performance with strong structure.

SMX-SM series motors are also available with the following  options:

- Special voltage ( 230/460V 60Hz, 575V 60Hz; 400/690V 50Hz, 220/380V 60Hz,440V 60Hz etc.)
- Thermal protectors (PTO) or thermistors (PTC)
- Heaters
- Forced Cooling  -AV (SMXAV series)
- Built-in Encoder – E (SMXE series)
- Motors with NEMA dimensions
- Non-standard shaft or flange
- Sensor bearings
- Special environment execution (Wash-down, Marine, Tropical)

MGM Electric Motors joined as an endorser the “Motor Challenge”.
The Motor Challenge Programme is a European Commission voluntary programme (launched in February 2003) through which industrial companies are aided in improving the energy efficiency of their Motor Driven Systems.

The Challenge focuses on Compressed Air, Fan and Pump systems, for which it has been demonstrated that there exists a large technical and economic potential for energy savings.
Reducing the energy consumption of electric motor driven systems, which account for up to 30% of all electricity used in European Union, is among the priorities of European Union “Intelligent Energy for Europe” Programme.
