Product catalog summary
Merkes GmbH Product Lines
Merkes GmbH specializes in special motors, including synchronous servomotors and high-performance norm-motors. The synchronous servomotors are available in MT, MH, and MN series, offering various torque ranges and dynamic capabilities. The synchronous high-performance norm-motors comply with EN 60034-31 standards, featuring permanent-magnet rotors and designed for operation with frequency inverters.
High Performance Norm-Motors – Series MPM
The MPM series motors are designed to replace asynchronous norm-motors, offering improved efficiency and reduced energy losses. These motors operate with a "Sensorless-Vector-Control" regulatory procedure and can achieve speeds up to 4000 min-1 in intermittent operation. The motors are characterized by high efficiency, space and cost savings, and do not require a feedback unit.
Technical Specifications
The MPM series includes motors with power ratings of 1.1 kW, 2.2 kW, and 4.0 kW, each capable of operating at speeds from 0 to 4000 min-1 in Δ-connection. The motors maintain a constant torque across this speed range, with efficiency illustrated in provided graphs.
Installation and Safety
Installation and maintenance should be performed by qualified personnel, adhering to standards such as DIN VDE 0105 and IEC 364. Proper grounding and adherence to power supply instructions are critical for safety. The motors should only be operated with specific frequency inverters, and direct connection to the main supply is prohibited.
Important Notes
The MPM series motors are precision devices requiring careful handling during installation. Proper alignment of couplings and tuning of resolver poles in the inverter are essential to prevent damage and ensure optimal performance.
Applications
The motors are suitable for applications such as pumps, compressors, and fans, where long operating times and part-load operations are common. The improved efficiency and power factor contribute to reduced energy consumption and faster payback periods.
Overview
This document is a technical manual for the High Performance Norm-Motors of the MPM series, designed for specialized staff with knowledge in electrical and mechanical engineering. These motors are intended to be used with frequency inverters and must not be directly connected to the main supply.
Specifications
The MPM motors are brushless permanent magnet synchronous motors with back EMF and buried permanent magnets in the rotor. They feature a three-phase winding in the stator, which can be star or Y-connected, and are cooled by a fan mounted on the B-side of the shaft.
Motor Construction
The motors have a cylindrical shaft-A end for power transmission, with specific radial force limits depending on speed. The protection class for all motors is IP55, and they can be connected in delta or star configurations.
Selection Criteria
Key parameters for selecting the appropriate motor include rated torque (Mn), rated speed (nn), and rated power (Pn). Both static and dynamic loads must be considered.
Installation and Start-Up
Important installation notes include ensuring proper grounding, checking radial and axial load compliance, and maintaining a minimum distance from walls for cooling. Power connections should be handled by skilled electricians, following safety standards and EMV-wiring conditions.
Environmental Conditions
The motors are suitable for ambient temperatures between -20°C and +40°C, at a maximum height of 1000m above sea level, and relative humidity of 15-85%. They are not suitable for outdoor or aggressive environments.
Technical Data
The document provides detailed technical data for MPM motors ranging from 1.1kW to 4.0kW, including rated speed, torque, current, and other electrical characteristics for both delta and Y-connections.
Definitions
Key terms such as continuous stall torque, nominal torque, stall current, peak current, torque constant, voltage constant, and moment of inertia are defined to aid in understanding motor performance.

High Performance Norm-Motors – Series MPM An operation in Y-star connection is also possible, however, the speed range when using a frequency inverter at a supply voltage of 400VAC is limited to maximum 2000 min-1. The known torques and the rotation speed dependent mechanical power defined by equation (1), remain the same. The maximum permitted speed in intermittent operation of 4000min-1 can be achieved only through the field weakening operation of the drive, which is exacerbating the available torque.

High Performance Norm-Motors – Series MPM Important Notes 4. Important Notes The Norm - Motors of the MPM series are precision motors. They are not intended to be connected directly to a rotary current power supply system. They have to be operated only by a particular frequency inverter having “Sensorless-Vector-Control” mode. A direct connection to main supply will lead to the destruction of the motor. To fit zero backlash drive elements strictly use the intended thread at the motor shaft and if possible warm up the drive elements. Only use suitable tools to fit the drive elements. Avoid strong...
