A low-voltage motor typically refers to an electric motor that operates on a voltage lower than the standard mains voltage used in most residential and industrial applications. Generally, low-voltage motors are designed to operate below 1000 volts (1 kV). These motors find use in various applications where lower voltage levels are sufficient to meet operational requirements, such as small appliances, tools, automotive systems, and specific industrial machinery.
The main categories of low voltage motors include international efficiency 1 (IE1) low-voltage motors, international efficiency 2 (IE2) low-voltage motors, international efficiency 3 (IE3) low-voltage motors, and international efficiency 4 (IE4) low-voltage motors. IE1 low-voltage motors are basic motors designed for general industrial applications, offering standard efficiency levels. They are utilized in various applications including crushers, compressors, extruders, pumps, fans, and conveyors across industries such as food and beverage, mining, automotive, electronics, textile, and others.
