Blue Max® Motors

Blue Max Motors offer the most complete line of inverter duty motors in the industry.

Features & Benefits

This motor series was designed to Magnetek's specifications, and is ideal for use in any application where precise motion control is needed.  Tests have shown that these motors are capable of a 1500:1 speed range when used with our IMPULSE®• VG+ Series 4 flux vector motor control.

FEATURES and BENEFITS:

  • 1 to 400 HP
  • Suitable for CMAA Class A through F
  • 1.0 Service Factor on PWM drives
  • Available
  • Totally Enclosed Non-Ventilated (TENV) 60 Min. duty
  • Totally Enclosed Blower Cooled (TEBC) continuous duty
  • Totally Enclosed Non-Ventilated (TENV) continuous duty
  • NEMA design A, optimized for operation with IGBT inverters
  • Class F insulation (449T Frame Class H) with patented Max Guard® winding system for use with IGBT variable frequency drives
  • Class F thermostats (Klixons) in all three phases
  • Cast Iron frame and brackets for strength and corrosion resistance
  • Voltage 230/460, 3 phase, 60 Hz (143T to 286T frame)
  • Voltage 460, 3 phase, 60 Hz (324T to 449T frame)
  • Available options include encoders, NEMA C Face mounting, Class H insulation, space heaters, explosion proof, severe duty treatment, doubleshaft/tapershaft, brakes, and inpro seals
  • Two-year warranty


High Horsepower Motors

For applications requiring a higher horsepower motor, Magnetek offers Blue Max motors in a 5000 series frame, capable of up to 1000 HP. This motor is suitable for CMAA Class A through F applications and has a service factor of 1.0 on PWM drives. Like our lower HP version, the Blue Max High Horsepower Motor is capable of a 1500:1 speed range, when used with our IMPULSE®•VG+ Series 4 Flux Vector motor control.

When precision motion control and higher horsepower are required, Blue Max High Horsepower motors provide the solution.
