Electric Motor Cooling
Engineered for Reliable Motor Performance
The choice of motor cooling system can have a significant impact on initial investment, operating costs, and long-term reliability.
Totally enclosed motor designs are particularly suitable for applications requiring protection against harsh environmental conditions, low noise emissions, compact installations, or efficient heat dissipation using cooling water.
Typical applications for large water-cooled electric motors include:
Oil & Gas and Petrochemical – Drill rig motors and refinery applications
Pulp & Paper – Pumps and chippers
Pipelines – Compressors and pumps
Mining and Mineral Processing – Ball mills, conveyors, crushers, and slurry pumps
Water Treatment – Large pumping systems
Marine – Pod propulsion systems
Our Solutions
UET-Ecodyne designs and supplies customized cooling coils and heat exchangers for medium- and large-sized electric motors.
Our motor coolers are designed to transfer heat from the motor's internal cooling air to a water circuit, helping maintain operating temperatures and ensure reliable performance.
Depending on the motor design, cooling units can be integrated into the motor enclosure or incorporated into a separate cooling arrangement.
Our solutions include:
Totally Enclosed Water-to-Air Cooled (TEWAC) systems, also referred to as Closed Air Circuit Water Cooled (CACW), including cooling arrangements such as IC 81W and IC 86W
Customized cooling solutions for remotely installed or ducted cooling systems, depending on the motor configuration and application requirements
