Water-cooled design enables higher power density and improved thermal management, reducing temperature rise in hot plants and increasing available torque for continuous operation in pumps and conveyors. The high IE2 efficiency (Full Load 93.5%, Partial Load up to 93.9%) lowers energy consumption and operating costs, delivering measurable savings over the motor’s life. IP55 protection and IC71W insulation protect windings from dust and moisture, supporting outdoor or harsh indoor environments and extending service life. An aluminum frame (315) provides robust mechanical stiffness with favorable heat dissipation, while bearing configurations (6319/C3, 6316/C3) support long life under frequent start/stop cycles. The 8-pole design offers suitable torque at reduced speeds, ideal for fans and conveyors in process automation. Top termination box simplifies wiring in cramped spaces, and the water-cooling circuit enables stable operation with a reliable cooling water supply for consistent performance.

FAQs
Yes. The M3LP 315KHC 8 uses a standard 315 frame and a top-termination box location, which simplifies wiring in crowded installations. It supports common mounting schemes and aligns with typical couplings and belt drives used in pumps, fans, and conveyors. Ensure compatible shaft dimensions and drill pattern are observed in your drive design for a smooth retrofit or initial install.
This motor is rated IE2 with a Full Load efficiency around 93.5%, and approximately 93.9% at 75% load and 93.7% at 50% load. It is designed for S1 continuous duty, providing constant operation without overheating under normal plant conditions. The combination supports energy savings, reliable torque, and predictable performance in automated processes.
The M3LP 315KHC 8 excels in high-temperature, space-constrained environments such as chemical processing, metalworking, water treatment, and outdoor facilities. Its water-cooled design, aluminum frame, and IP55 protection make it ideal for pumps, fans, conveyors, and other continuous-duty drives in process automation where ambient heat and dust are concerns.
Key certifications include IP55 protection, IC71W winding insulation, and insulation class ICLF. The device is built for reliability in challenging environments and complies with industry expectations for rugged automation equipment. The Finnish origin (Finland FI) underlines quality and support, with a robust framework for field service and spare parts availability.
The motor’s IE2 efficiency and robust build deliver lower energy costs and longer maintenance intervals, improving total cost of ownership. With a top-termination design and high-quality bearings, onboarding and troubleshooting are streamlined, reducing downtime. For ROI, focus on energy savings in pumps and conveyors and the reduced risk of unplanned outages in continuous-process plants.
