Worldwide Standard AC Motors

Safety Standards for Safe, Reliable Operation

All World K Series models have a built-in overheat protection device and conform to major international safety standards. UL/CSA, CE Marking (Low Voltage Directive), models certified under CCC (China Compulsory Certification system) are also available.

Motor Overheat Protection Device

Thermal Protector:
A built-in feature of all motors with a frame size of 2.76 in. (70 mm) or more.
Impedance Protection:
Implemented on all motors with a frame size of 2.36 in. (60 mm) or less.

Global Voltage Specifications

The World K Series supports the power supply voltages used in major countries. Motors meeting the local voltage standard are readily available in major countries in Europe, Asia and North America.

The Motor Bearing Life is Twice as Long as Conventional Type

A motor's life is determined by its bearing. We adopted high-performance bearing grease to lubricate this important component. As a result, the bearings of the World K Series motors last twice as long as conventional bearings.

Gear Types

Long Rated Life of 5,000 Hours	Long Rated Life of 10,000 Hours	Ideal Space-Saving Solution Hollow Shaft and Solid Shaft Types are Available
Applicable Products: 6 W (1/125 HP) up to 40 W (1/19 HP)	Applicable Products: 60 W (1/12 HP) or 90 W (1/8 HP)	Applicable Products: 25 W (1/30 HP) up to 90 W (1/8 HP)

Electromagnetic Brake

90 W (1/8 HP)

These motors have a "power off" activated type electromagnetic brake to hold the load in position when the power is cut off.

Ideal for Applications Required Load Holding

This configuration is ideal for vertical applications where the load must be held.

Vertical Application

Inverter / VFD

With its high functionality, compact design, simple operation and global compatibility, the new FRENIC-Mini (C2) elevates the performance of a wide range of devices and equipment--including conveyors, fans, pumps, centrifugal separators, and food processing machines--to give you the system integration, energy efficiency, reduced labor, and lower overall costs you're looking for.
