Lyman, SC – SEW-EURODRIVE is setting a new standard for efficiency with the launch of the DR2C motor, an IE5 ultra-premium efficiency motor engineered for wide speed range operation and maximum long-term energy cost reductions. Designed for industries focused on minimizing total cost of ownership (TCO), the DR2C reduces energy consumption, minimizes heat losses, and enhances operational reliability—delivering a fast return on investment and sustained savings throughout its lifecycle.
The SEW-EURODRIVE DR2C motor series utilizes Interior Permanent Magnet (IPM) technology, which integrates permanent magnets within the rotor instead of surface-mounted. This design increases torque density and achieves the highest normative efficiency class IE5, resulting in energy losses up to 50% lower than those of standard IE3 asynchronous motors in the same power class - achieving superior energy efficiency across the entire speed range. This leads to lower operating costs, extended service life, and reduced environmental impact—all without compromising power or performance.
SEW-EURODRIVE’s DR2C Permanent Magnet Motor delivers maximum torque in a compact design, making it up to two frame sizes smaller than comparable IE3 asynchronous motors. This high-power density is achieved through advanced Interior Permanent Magnet (IPM) technology, ensuring exceptional efficiency and performance for heavy-load applications. Additionally, the DR2C’s low inherent mass inertia minimizes energy losses during acceleration, further enhancing its dynamic response and overall efficiency.
"The DR2C IE5 motor is more than just a motor upgrade—it’s a long-term, cost-saving strategy for businesses looking to cut energy expenses and improve efficiency," said Eder Matias, Director of Sales, Drives Control & Automation at SEW-EURODRIVE. "By reducing power losses and optimizing motor performance, the DR2C delivers a return on investment that companies will see reflected in their bottom line year after year."" – Eder Matias, Director of Sales, Drives Control & Automation, SEW-EURODRIVE |
The DR2C Permanent Magnet Motor from SEW-EURODRIVE delivers unrivaled energy savings, lower operating costs, and a faster ROI than conventional motors. Investing in the DR2C means investing in long-term financial and environmental sustainability.
