High-thrust Simotics Vertical Solid Shaft (VSS) NEMA Premium motors from Siemens feature thrust capacity higher than industry standard, according to the company. The angular contact thrust bearings on the HP100 and LP100 models are located in the non-drive end of the motor where they receive maximum cooling from the motor fan. Users can easily regrease or change bearings because of this design, which can reduce cost and downtime due to motor maintenance.
The all-cast iron construction, oversized terminal box, bolted lifting eyes, corrosion resistant hardware, and epoxy finish combine to bring longer life spans and ease of use in harsh environments, according to the company.
