6-Inch Oil-Filled Borehole Motor, 5.5 kW 525 V Three-Phase

Description

Overview

This 5.5 kW, 525 V oil-filled 6-inch borehole motor is the submersible drive unit that sits below a multistage pump end and turns it. It is supplied with 6 m of motor lead and is rated to 25 bar. The sealed oil-filled design keeps the windings isolated from the borehole water. It is a sensible choice where the water is aggressive, sandy or untested, and it is what you will find on many existing installations.

The 525 V rating draws less current than a 380 V motor of the same power, which eases cable and starter sizing on long drop cables and mine or large-scheme supplies. It suits these pump ends: SP17-10. Always match the motor power (kW) and voltage to your pump end and power supply. Not sure? Contact us with your pump model.

It needs a suitable starter panel, soft starter or VSD fitted by your electrician, and none is included.

Where it works

A motor this size lifts domestic and stock water on farms in Limpopo and North West, fills header tanks, and supplies lodges, schools and rural water schemes that need steady daily volume rather than big flow. If you are replacing a failed 5.5 kW unit or building up a new set, a 6 inch oil filled borehole motor 5.5kw like this one keeps the job simple: pump end, motor, drop cable and starter, all sized together.
