Overview
Features and Benefits
- GROUNDBREAKING EFFICIENCY: Powered by MagForce High Efficiency Motor with up to 92% efficiency rating that is 8-12 points (15%) greater than standard induction motor construction. Typical duty rate systems can have a payback of 1 to 2 years.
- SLASH ELECTRICITY CONSUMPTION: Up to 14% energy savings compared to traditional induction motors.
- SIMPLIFIED INVENTORY MANAGEMENT: Available motor options cover a wide range of pump horsepower needs (up to 60 hp) with fewer SKUs to manage.
- SMALLER FOOTPRINT: Lighter and easier to handle than standard induction motors.
- INTUITIVE STARTUP: When optimized and paired with a Franklin Electric variable frequency drive, expect easy startups and reliable protection for any project.
- BUILT TOGETHER TO WORK TOGETHER: Rely on components from a single trusted source for the ultimate in operational compatibility and optimized operation.
- FULLY SUPPORTED: Comes fully supported by the industry’s leading Technical Support professionals and Field Service Engineers.
- Field trial data
