Working Mechanism

  • AC metric three phase motors have three sets of windings or coils within them.
  • These windings are spaced evenly around the motor's core, each 120 degrees apart.
  • When three-phase AC voltage is applied to these windings, it creates rotating magnetic fields.
  • These magnetic fields interact with a rotor placed within the motor.
  • The rotor is not connected to an external power supply but instead relies on the magnetic fields for induction.
  • The interaction between the rotating magnetic fields and the rotor induces a current in the rotor, creating a rotating motion.
  • This motion is what drives the motor's output shaft.

Features

Leeson IEC Metric Motors:

  • They have IP55-rated enclosures for weatherproofing.
  • These motors have oil seals on both the drive and non-drive end to avoid leakage.
  • Their non-sparking, small-size fan reduces noise and enhances efficiency.

Marathon Motors Globetrotter IEC Frame Motors :

  • They feature aluminium frame construction for corrosion resistance and thermal conductivity.
  • These AC metric three phase motors offer continuous duty cycle operation with clockwise / counterclockwise shaft rotation.
  • They permit flange / base horizontal mounting and have MAX GUARD Class F insulation with NEMA premium efficiencies.

Weg Metric Motors :

  • Their aluminium frame and removable feet provide flexibility to change the configuration.
  • These motors have 90-degree rotating terminal boxes that allow cable connection from any side.
  • They have TEFC enclosures for protection against dust, dirt and moisture.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a synchronous and an induction three-phase motor?

Synchronous motors rotate at a constant speed determined by the frequency of the power supply. Induction motors, on the other hand, have a slight slip and do not rotate at the exact synchronous speed.

What are the main components of an AC metric three-phase motor?

The main components include the stator (with three sets of windings), rotor, bearings, frame and often a cooling system (fan or fins).

What is the difference between single-phase and three-phase motors?

Single-phase motors operate on a single-phase AC power supply and are generally less powerful and efficient than three-phase motors. Three-phase motors are preferred for industrial applications due to their superior performance.
