2300 Volt Medium-Voltage Electric Motors
2300-volt electric motors (2.3 kV) deliver powerful, efficient performance for industrial applications where 575 V systems are no longer sufficient.
These motors bridge the gap between low-voltage and high-voltage machinery — providing higher horsepower output with lower current draw and superior cable run efficiency.
Used in refineries, mines, power generation, and process plants, 2300 V motors are available in Totally Enclosed Fan Cooled (TEFC), Weather-Protected (WPI/WPII), and Explosion-Proof (TEXP) enclosures.
All models meet NEMA MG-1, IEEE 841, and CSA C390 standards and are engineered for continuous-duty reliability.
