Direct Drive Cooling Tower Fan Motor

Use premium efficient cooling tower duty motors and include bac s comprehensive 5 year motor and drive warranty.

Direct drive cooling tower fan motor.

The direct drive motor offers reliability with minimal maintenance requirements. The permanent magnet motor directly drives the fan eliminating a number of components including the gear drive driveshaft pillow block bearings and couplings and associated installation and alignment costs. The motor portion of baldor s adjustable speed direct drive cooling tower fan system replaces the conventional motor driveshaft gearbox combination. There are multiple direct drive options in which the motor directly drives the cooling tower fan.

Direct drive permanent magnet motors are a newer technology available on most marley nc cooling towers. The direct drive fan motor is controlled by a baldor vs1 drive with a specially developed speed control algorithm. The fan drive system provides the cooling air necessary to reject unwanted heat from the system to the atmosphere. The cooling system usually features cooling towers that house large fan blades.

Not only does the new tower design maximize cooling but its direct drive air moving system which includes a vfd variable frequency drive fan motor provides significant cost savings on electricity adds voudouris. Our direct drive motor and variable speed drive packages for industrial cooling replace the gearbox driveshaft and induction motor typically used in industrial cooling fans. It fits in the space conventionally occupied by the right angle gearbox with the fan blade mounted directly to its vertical shaft. Available document languages.

This results in less parts less maintenance lower noise and reduced risks. This combination provides high torque and low speed required for these applications without additional drivetrain components. Marley insight direct drive fan motor. Advances in motor power density using laminated steel frame construction combined with high flux strength permanent magnet salient pole rotor technology results in a high torque slow speed low profile motor that is mounted directly to the fan and operates at variable speed to maximize system efficiency.

To power the fan it is now possible for a high efficiency permanent magnet direct drive motor to be coupled directly to the fan. A common direct drive option uses a permanent magnet motor. The same electric motor and control technology that is being used to power today s most sophisticated hybrid vehicles is now being adapted for cooling tower drive applications. Has offered permanent magnet motors to meet our cooling tower customers direct drives requirements.

This is a type of electric motor with rare earth permanent magnets incorporated into the rotor. All bac drive systems. The direct drive also greatly reduces noise and eliminates the issue of cooling tower water becoming contaminated from leaky gearboxes. Since 2011 spx cooling technologies inc.
