Speed Engineered® Motors
At Century
®
, we build a motor
able to withstand voltage peaks 3.5 times
what is stated on the motor nameplate.
Therefore we design additional
insulation (tape, sleeving, phase
paper, etc.) and strategically locate
this added insulation in a manner
that will yield the necessary protec-
tion against the high voltage pulses that
may occur between magnet wire strands.
This approach yields the desired design
integrity.
With the design for insulation
and winding layout determined,
the success of each motor now
depends on placing the insulation
properly during production. To
provide final assurance for our
customers, Century uses a proprietary
CIV tester that employs a unique
procedure to detect and measure corona
for each and every Speed Engineered
motor we produce…before that motor
leaves our factory!
Because Motor/Drive Applications
Are so Varied, Century Offers
Three Distinct Families of Speed
Engineered
®
Motors:
E-Plus
®
motors, the industry’s first
high efficiency, energy-saving motor,
meets 1997 EPACT standards. Now,
E-Plus Motors also carry the protection
of the Speed Engineered design and is
warranted to offer the best performance
available to inverter duty applications.
E-Plus
®
3 motors offer even heartier
energy-efficient performance and sav-
ings, exceeding most utility conservation
initiatives, in addition to meeting the
1997 EPACT standards. All E-Plus 3
motors are Speed Engineered rated for
compatible inverter duty applications.
Both E-Plus
®
and E-Plus
®
3 motors
are available in a variety of application
configurations including: variable or
constant torque loads, PWM, sensorless
or sensored vector and with limited or
broad speed ranges.
Speed Engineered motors are rated
for 4:1 speed ratio at constant torque or
6:1 at variable torque.
In addition to being corona free,
Century Speed Plus
®
motors offer many
additional benefits such as:
Wide Speed Ranges to fit your
application:
• 20:1 at constant torque, standard
• 1000:1 at constant torque with the
addition of a blower kit
Standard Features provide opera-
tional flexibility and dependability:
• Totally-enclosed severe duty
• All cast-iron construction
• VPI corona-free Class F insulation
system
