We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "IEC Frame Sizes",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Gearboxes offered with epoxy resin coatings from
Motion Drives and Controls, which we summarised at the time by saying "Watt Drive's complete range of Uniblock helical worm gearboxes is now available with an extended choice of epoxy resin coating systems to suit hostile environments and extremely
high hygiene areas".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Low-voltage motors suit marine applications from
ABB Automation Tech (Drives and Motors): "ABB has launched a new range of lowVage water-cooled motors in IEC frame sizes 400 and 450, extending the water-cooled offering up to 1100 kW".
In November 2006, we covered the news from ABB Automation Tech (Drives and Motors)
concerning its Smoke venting motors
- take a look at Smoke venting motors meet European standard
which says: "New smoke venting motors from ABB can now take advantage of the surrounding airstream for cooling when mounted inside a ventilation duct".
Take a look also at the news release from ABB Automation Tech (Drives and Motors), Flameproof motors come in smaller sizes,
as well as Motors turn to hazardous area cooling tasks from ABB Automation Tech (Drives and Motors),
and Motors help you breathe more easily from ABB Automation Tech (Drives and Motors).
