INDUSTRIAL & POWER SYSTEMS PRODUCTS
Life cycle cost is nothing new to Toshiba. From the beginning, nearly 125 years ago, our goal was to design and manufacturing the most rugged and reliable motors in the world. Our continuous commitment to unsurpassed technology has allowed us to consistently accomplish that goal. Toshiba builds premium quality motors up to 40,000 horsepower. Our world-class quality and reliability are legendary and we make certain that every motor we build meets Toshiba's meticulous quality standards. We won't ship anything less than the best. Make the most of your medium voltage motor investment. Buy premium quality Toshiba motors.
Medium Voltage Motors (above 600V)
MV Open Drip Proof
Medium Voltage
MV Totally Enclosed Fan Cooled
Medium Voltage
A totally-enclosed fan-cooled motor (IP54, IC611) is generally used in an environment containing corrosive or harmful gas. The external fan is mounted on the opposite drive directing fresh air into the pipes of the air housing located on the upper part of the motor. The pipes act as a heat exchanger in which cool air passing through the pipes expells hot internal air from the motor. This type of motor can be used outdoors. Cooling tubes in the air housing are easily accessible and cleaned simply by removing the fan cover.
MV Totally Enclosed Air-to-Air Cooled
Medium Voltage
Toshiba's TEAAC (totally enclosed air/air cooled) motors offer unsurpassed protection in severe environments where dirt, dust and/or moisture are present. TEAAC motors are a modular design with either cast iron or fabricated steel frame with rugged fabricated steel heat exchanger top hats. Heat exchanger tubes are available from carbon steel to stainless steel to suit the specific application requirement.
MV Weather Protected Type II
Medium Voltage
This open-outdoor motor (IP24W, IC01) is for outdoor use and incorporates an air housing in accordance with NEMA, WP2. It includes three right-angled turns for air inlets and outlets. The inlet air duct has a section where wind velocity falls below 3m/sec (600 ft/min), causing dripping water, dust and foreign matter to fall before air reaches the electrical parts of the motor. A section is provided in which air may blow through without being forced into the motor. Inlet air fi lters can be provided to prevent the ingress of particulate material.
Check out some of the most Frequently Asked Questions regarding Toshiba's Low and Medium Voltage Motors.
Q: Where are Toshiba motors manufactured?
A: Toshiba motors are designed, built, manufactured and tested at our 550,000 square foot facility located in Houston, Texas. We are proud to be one of the few motor manufactures who start with raw materials and make finished products here in North America.
Q: Are your motors ISO certified compliant?
A:ISO does not certify individual products... ISO certifies manufacturing facilities. Our Houston facility is ISO certified and has been since 1994. We must pass routine audits to maintain that certification. All Toshiba motors are manufactured in our ISO-9001 certified facility in Houston. This is your guarantee that our motors really do meet our published specs.Q: What standard features come on all Toshiba motors?
A: All Toshiba motors include standard features such as cast iron frames, oversized bearings, precision balancing and high-grade insulation.Q: Do Toshiba motors meet NEMA Design B minimum locked rotor torque requirements?
A: Even with a 10% voltage drop, our motors exceed NEMA Design B minimum locked rotor torque requirements. In fact, most of our ``off the shelf standard and premium efficiency motors meet NEMA Design C torque requirements which eliminates the need for a special order motor.Q: What is Toshiba's maximum allowable vibration level?
A: Toshiba's maximum allowable vibration level is 0.10 inch per second, which allows for smoother and quieter operation resulting in longer motor life. Our precision balance helps to lower bearing temperature rise, bearing wear, and the risk of down time due to bearing failure.Q: Do Toshiba motors allow for multiple starting methods?
A: Our motor designs with multiple leads allow for a variety of starting methods. 12 lead, dual voltage motors are suitable for Across-the-Line starting, Wye-Delta starting, and Part-Winding starting (on low voltage only). Multiple leads allow for motor usage on 208, 230 or 460 volt systems.Q: Are Toshiba motors ``Inverter Compatible?
A: Toshiba's EQPIII series motors have been designed for use with adjustable speed drives. Low temperature rises, upgraded insulation systems (NEMA MG1 part 31), improved magnet wire, and proper application support are required for the reliable use of motors with PWM inverters. Toshiba motors and adjustable speed drives are all manufactured under one roof, with careful engineering, coordination and testing to ensure total system compatibility.
