Pump motor for thermal power station

Menzel Elektromotoren has manufactured a motor with a special flange for a condensate extraction pump in a combined heat and power plant. The original motor, which was over 30 years old, had to be matched precisely in all mechanical and electrical interfaces. Works included the manufacture of a flange with special dimensions for vertical installation and repositioning of the main terminal box.

The energy supply company, already a customer of Menzel Italy, awarded the order because Menzel could fully confirm all technical requirements. Menzel’s MEBKGR series comprises high-voltage squirrel cage motors with a good price-performance ratio. For the current application, the manufacturer designed a 4-pole motor with size 500, 6000V nominal voltage, 1100kW nominal output, protection class IP55 and cooling type IC 411 (fin cooling with external fan).

Menzel took the motor all the way through to commissioning, which was carried out to the customer’s satisfaction. www.menzel-motors.com/pump-drive
