Guaranteed efficiency and torque over wide speed ranges Save energy—at and below speed Platinum e™ delivers more than torque. It also delivers a lower utility bill. Because throughout the speed range, Platinum e™ motors use less energy—far less than “high-efficiency” AC induction motors. And below rated speed? That’s where efficiency becomes even more significant, making Platinum e™ ideally suited for variable speed applications. That means return on investment typically occurs in 12 to 24 months. • igh Speed with Low H Power Density • igh Speed with High H Power Density • ow Speed/High Torque...
