W Cast Iron Motors: High durability and ability to work in adverse operating conditions.

W Cast Iron Motors can provide a range of benefits to various types of customers in the global industrial market. These can be used for all kinds of industrial activities including water treatment, petrochemicals processing and manufacturing. The most important thing to look for in cast iron motors that these should be produced using stringent quality procedures. These would include first the designing and then the finishing of the product as per ISO 9001 quality systems.

Motors made from W Cast Iron Motors range cover products having outputs as little as 0.18KW to 400KW. The frame sizes range from 80 to 355 L. These are suitable for use in a diverse range of applications including refrigeration to roller table drives. The application can be done without any significant problems in adverse operating conditions including repeating starting and occasional overloading. The cast iron motors in the W range are the ‘go anywhere' motor which usually has a warranty of 3 years by the manufacturers.



Some of the major advantages of the cast iron motors include:


  • High efficiency for low running costs.
  • Greater reliability for a longer lifespan.
  • Lower noise levels
  • Cool running providing a longer insulation life.
  • Euro voltage of 400V +-10 percent. 
  • Highly convenient to maintain
  • High torque with low current and smooth acceleration.
  • IP55 protection.
  • Adaptability of multi-mounting


The motors are available for various zones including zone 2, 21& 21. Cast iron motors made by manufacturers approved in the Enhanced Capital Scheme Allowance of the Government are available in various standards for operation in different types of environment.

Furthermore, cast iron motors are explosion proof motors and are resistant to corrosion. Cast iron motors have a greater rotational inertia and they take a longer time to gain speed. The flywheel effect reduces the impact of shock loads on the motor. This is a situation that also helps to deal with the temperature variations. Cast iron motors can be operated to yield higher RPMs and are able to withstand bumps and knocks in a better away. One can easily weld the ancillary components to the cast iron motors.
