LOHER VARIO

Rugged and compact high voltage motors in fin, water jacket and tube cooling. Designed for applications in extreme environments and hazardous zones, especially in oil, gas and petrochemical industry. Available in all of the usual types of explosion protection – also double protection, degrees of protection up to IP66 (special designs up to IP68), special paint finishes, high and low temperature versions and cooling types tailored to the application – make them predestined for sectors such as oil, gas and petrochemical.

LOHER VARIO - Fin cooled 0.15 – 2.8 MW

Well suited to Zone 1 and highly explosive environments, including those containing hydrogen.
Also certified for low temperatures, suitable for use in arctic environments
Extremely rugged due to torsional stiff steel frame
On request also available in double protection Ex d and Ex e
Double certified motors for use in hazardous zones with gas or dust

Water jacket cooled up to 1.85 MW, commonly used in offshore applications

Compact design to reduce space required and transport costs
Very low maintenance water jacket cooling system
Long service life as a result of the uniform cooling
Seawater/saltwater can be directly used as coolant
Extremely quiet as they have no outer fan – even when converter operated
Extremely high overload capability

LOHER VARIO Tube cooled 1.9 – 7 MW

Very rugged with stainless steel cooling pipes
Special inner cooling system with X ventilation, axial and radial cooling slots for a uniform temperature distribution
Flameproof enclosure (Ex d) up to 7 MW

Your advantages
