■ Overview
• 1LA8 for converter-fed operation
- Converter-fed operation, optimised for the SINAMICS and
SIMOVERT MASTERDRIVES drive systems

- Cooling method: IC411, self-ventilated
- Housing: Cast iron

insulation for 690 V
Series 1PQ8
The motors are asynchronous squirrel-cage motors with com-
pact dimensions in fin-cooled design with a separately driven
fan. As these motors are forced-ventilated, no derating or only
relatively minor derating (depending on their speed range) is
required for operation at constant load torque and with wide
speed ranges. The motors are designed for converter-fed
operation with the SINAMICS and SIMOVERT MASTERDRIVES
drive system.

These motors can therefore be continuously operated at low
speed and high torque simultaneously.
■ Design
The basic structure of the non-standard motors is shown in the In conventional fin-cooled motors, the one-sided external venti-
following sectional diagram. lation naturally results in an uneven temperature distribution -
this is however not the case with N compact motors with their
additional internal air-flow channels. This cools, in particular,
the stator winding heads, the rotor winding and the drive-end
bearings. The resulting reduction in thermal loading increases
the operating reliability and lengthens the service life.
The internal air-flow channels increase the efficiency of the ven-
tilation which means that the external air-flow can be reduced.
The lower volumetric flow and air-flow optimisation of all guide
channels results in a low level of fan noise.
