Y2 Series (IE2) Three-Phase Motors for Industrial Applications

Yes. The Y2 series is manufactured strictly according to IEC 60034 and DIN 42673 standards. It uses standard IEC metric frame sizes (from 63 to 355), ensuring that shaft center height, foot mounting dimensions, and flange specifications are completely consistent with other global brands. Whether you want to replace an older Y-series motor or a standard motor from European manufacturers such as Siemens and ABB, our Y2 series allows for a seamless direct replacement; you don’t need to modify the mounting base of your equipment at all.

The Y2 series is a general-purpose industrial motor designed to balance performance and cost-effectiveness. With its robust cast iron housing and high starting torque, it is ideal for continuous duty (S1) applications such as pumps, industrial fans, blowers, compressors, and conveyors. While providing reliable power output, it is particularly suitable for machinery that does not require ultra-high energy efficiency (IE3/IE4), significantly reducing initial purchase costs (CAPEX) for OEMs and replacement projects.

Absolutely. Unlike ordinary open-type motors, the Y2 series features a fully enclosed fan-cooled design (TEFC/IC411) and an IP55 protection rating. This ensures complete protection against dust accumulation and effectively withstands low-pressure water jets from any direction. Furthermore, using Class F insulation (tested for Class B temperature rise), the motors can withstand ambient temperatures up to 40°C and possess excellent thermal margins to handle short-term overloads, making them extremely durable and perfectly suited for harsh environments such as mining, agriculture, and manufacturing.

Often the feet and shaft height follow IEC 60072-1, but you still match kW, poles, shaft diameter, voltage, and mounting code from the nameplate—not from the series name alone.
