H17R 500-C-8-6 delivers high power density for operations where a 700 rpm electric motor must rely on stable reserve capacity both during starting and under long-term load. This three-phase electric motor with an output of 1000 kW is designed to deliver performance comparable to more robust assemblies in limited space while maintaining good operating control. In practice, this is appreciated by large process lines, pumps with high delivery resistance and drives where precise coordination with downstream technology is important.
Compact 6000 V electric motor for industrial spaces with limited installation room
The main advantage is the compact design, which makes it possible to achieve full output in a space corresponding to frames H315 to H560. For the designer, this means easier installation in existing machine rooms, lower foundation-space requirements and better integration into operations where every square meter matters. An industrial 6000 V electric motor in such a solution facilitates modernization without unnecessary construction work.
The result is a solution suitable for HV electric motors in the energy sector and heavy industry. The stable design supports smooth operation under high continuous loads while helping keep operation under control in demanding cycles.
Copper rotor for long service life under continuous load
The copper alloy of the rotor reduces losses and increases thermal resistance under repeated loading, which is decisive in continuous operations. An 8-pole electric motor with this solution better withstands long operating intervals and helps limit thermal stress during starts, regulation and process fluctuations. Such a design provides a practical benefit in production lines where long service intervals and predictable drive behavior are expected.
- The copper rotor supports long service life in demanding operating modes.
- A 500 mm shaft height simplifies integration into existing technologies.
- A power factor of 0,83 helps when designing the power supply system.
- Efficiency of 96,1 % reduces energy losses during long-term operation.
- Insulation class F together with temperature rise B supports winding stability.
Voltage selection for different networks and operating standards
For industrial use, the ability to adapt the motor to the network and project standards is also important. Available voltage variants of 3 300 V, 6 000 V, 10 000 V and 11 000 V facilitate use in different operations without compromises in connection. Such a solution is appreciated by companies operating multiple technological systems with different distribution voltage levels.
In practice, this means easier integration into pumping stations, compressor rooms, mills, crushers, conveyors, mixers, fan units and rolling lines. It is precisely here that the 700 rpm electric motor proves to be a drive that better respects process requirements than universal solutions with lower operating reserve.
VYBO Electric holds the position of the largest company in its sector in Central Europe, and this experience is reflected in technical support and clear drive design.
Starting, torque and weight under control in heavy-duty technologies
Rated torque of 12784 Nm gives the drive the required force for starts and continuous loading in operations where power is transmitted through demanding mechanical systems. Rated current of 121 A and starting current ratio Ist/In of 5,3 % help with protection design and sizing of power distribution. At a weight of 7190 kg and rotor moment of inertia of 48,0 kg·m², it is important that the entire unit remains straightforward from both a mechanical design and maintenance perspective.
The operating details also include the fact that the H17R Compact PRO-HV model can be used in applications where winding and bearing temperatures are monitored. If protective and measuring accessories are also included, the service team gains a better overview of the drive condition and can plan shutdowns more precisely.
Clear solution for heavy industry and energy drives
Across the VYBO Electric portfolio, this motor is classified among solutions for large process and energy drives where long-term stability and straightforward servicing are expected. A low need for unnecessary interventions, clear installation logic and suitable voltage variants create a basis for reliable integration into new and modernized lines.
