Pump manufacturer Grundfos has launched a new generation Grundfos MGE motors – from 0.25 kW to 11 kW. Achieving the highest efficiency level available for electrical motors in the market today, these MGE IE5 motors will enable the company’s pumps to reach 10 percent in energy savings and 25 percent in payback time, as compared to the IE3 solution.

The new permanent-magnet synchronous motors without cooling fins achieve level IE4 / super premium efficiency. This can greatly benefit the food, beverage, and pharmaceutical industries, and other hygienically demanding applications. The efficient smooth-surface motors are suitable for use in dry areas as well as in applications requiring frequent cleaning.
