Black Max® Motors: These motors are suitable for more common crane applications, offering a modular design with a foot-mounted NEMA motor and a 'C' face. They support a 1000:1 speed range and are compatible with Electromotive Systems Pre-Engineered Single Motion Crane Controls. Key features include:
  • Horsepower range: 1/2 to 50 HP
  • Service Factor: 1.0 on PWM drive
  • Insulation: Class F with Max Guard® winding system
  • Voltage: 230/460 and 575 volt, 3 phase, 60 Hz
  • Optional brakes and encoders
  • Warranty: Two years
Blue Max® Motors: Designed for applications requiring precise motion control, these motors offer a comprehensive line of inverter duty motors. They are capable of a 1000:1 speed range with the IMPULSE®•VG+ Series 3 Flux Vector motor control. Key features include:
  • Horsepower range: 1 to 400 HP
  • Service Factor: 1.0 on PWM drives
  • Insulation: Class F (449T Frame Class H) with Max Guard® winding system
  • Frame: Cast iron for strength and corrosion resistance
  • Voltage: 230/460 and 575 volt, 3 phase, 60 Hz
  • Available options: Encoders, NEMA C Face mounting, space heaters, explosion proof, severe duty treatment
  • Warranty: Two years
High Horsepower Blue Max® Motors: For applications requiring up to 1000 HP, these motors are suitable for CMAA Class A through F applications. They maintain the same precision and control as lower horsepower models.
Encoders and Brakes: Optional encoders feature rugged zero speed, magneto-resistive sensing technology, while brakes are manufactured by Sterns, offering unitized construction and various enclosure options.
Severe Duty Service Treatment: Recommended for harsh environments, this treatment includes all cast iron construction, corrosion-resistant epoxy paint, and zinc-coated hardware.
MAX GUARD® Insulation System: This system provides long motor life under IGBT-based variable frequency drive operation, surpassing NEMA MG1, Part 31 requirements.
Additional Products and Services: Magnetek’s Material Handling Group offers a range of products including collision avoidance systems, brakes, power delivery systems, radio remote control systems, and engineered systems and solutions.
