Squirrel Cage Induction Motors (HV)

Large HV Squirrel Cage Induction Motors for Heavy Industry

Squirrel Cage Induction Motors are the most widely deployed motor technology in heavy industrial applications — simple, reliable, low-maintenance, and capable of handling severe-duty service for decades. In HV ratings (3.3 kV, 6.6 kV, 11 kV), they drive critical equipment including primary air fans, induced draft fans, boiler feed pumps, mill drives, chippers, blowers, and large process pumps.

Bombay Engineering Syndicate supplies Crompton HV squirrel cage motors deployed in thermal power plants, cement plants, steel mills, paper mills, refineries, mining operations, and process industries. Available power ratings span 200 kW through 15 MW with operating speeds from 500 rpm to 3000 rpm via appropriate pole count selection.

Construction features include welded fabricated-steel or cast-iron stator frames, vacuum-pressure-impregnated (VPI) stator windings, copper-bar squirrel cage rotors (no soldered joints), oil-film sleeve bearings for higher ratings, integral cooling fans for IC411/IC511 air-cooled designs, and complete monitoring instrumentation (PT100 stator RTDs, bearing temperature sensors, vibration probes, partial discharge sensors for larger units).

BES provides full project lifecycle support: technical sizing, factory acceptance testing coordination, transportation logistics, site assembly supervision, commissioning support, and long-term maintenance contracts. 67-year Crompton partnership ensures genuine OEM supply with full backing for spares, service, and warranty support across India.
