Product Description

The WPI / WPII series is Wolong's weather-protected open high-voltage induction motor for North American and international projects. It is designed to IEC, NEMA, API, NEC and CEC requirements and is available with UL, CSA and IECEx certification for Class I Division 2 and Class I Zone 2 locations.

Compared with earlier designs it offers a lower shaft height for the same power, higher efficiency (IE4 and above), lower noise and lower starting current, so it puts less stress on the supply network. Typical drives are fans, compressors, pumps, crushers and conveyors in mining, metallurgy, oil, chemical and power plants.

  • Steel-plate main structure; frame, core and cooler are modular, so the design adapts to many customer requirements
  • Larger grease space extends relubrication intervals by 1.5 times
  • Low starting current for less impact on the grid
  • Whole-life service support from Wolong

WPI or WPII?

Both terms come from NEMA MG 1. A Weather-Protected Type I motor is an open machine whose ventilating openings keep out rain, snow and airborne particles to a basic level. A Weather-Protected Type II motor adds intake and exhaust paths that make the air change direction several times and pass a low-velocity zone, so rain and dust drop out before they reach the electrical parts. WPII is the usual choice for outdoor installations without a motor house.

Applications

Fans, compressors, pumps, crushers, conveyors and general machinery in mining, metallurgy, oil and gas, chemical and power plants, including Division 2 / Zone 2 areas.

How to Order

For a fast, accurate quotation please send: rated power (kW), voltage and frequency, number of poles or speed, Ex marking or hazardous zone, mounting type, quantity and destination port. For a replacement, a photo of the old motor nameplate is the quickest way to match it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do your explosion-proof motors have ATEX and IECEx certificates?

Yes. Wolong Nanyang explosion-proof motors, both low-voltage and high-voltage, are available with ATEX and IECEx certificates for Europe and international projects, and GOST for the Russian market. Tell us which certificate you need when you ask for a quote.

Can this motor replace my existing motor?

Yes. For new projects we quote and select the model to your requirements. For a replacement, please send a nameplate photo or outline drawing of the old motor, and we will match the shaft height, mounting and installation dimensions.

Can you supply replacements for Schorch, Brook Crompton or Morley motors?

Yes. Schorch, Brook Crompton and Morley belong to the Wolong Electric Group, and we can supply Wolong motors built to replace them, matched to your mounting dimensions.

Can you ship to my country, and what is the lead time?

Yes. We ship worldwide on CIF terms, or you can use your own forwarder. The usual production time is about 3 months, depending on the model and quantity.

What information do you need for a quotation?

Rated power (kW), voltage and frequency, number of poles or speed, Ex marking or hazardous zone, mounting type (e.g. B3, B35, V1), quantity and destination port. A nameplate photo of the old motor helps if it is a replacement.
