Where to get 500kW motors within 1 week?

Posted in: , on 14. Aug. 2014 - 23:23

Hi,

I am looking for a company which can supply standard electrical motors with at least 500 kW power (asynchronous 4-pole low voltage (400/690V), B3 design). Who can supply such motors within 1 week or so and not 6-8 weeks which seems to be common industry standard? In other words I am looking for an on-the-shelf motor.

I would take a good look at used equipment boards in your area. It would help if you gave your location as deliveries from other countries could be very long. ■

Like Gary says, your area is very important. Even if you could find a motor locally you have only got five days left to inspect it and have it delivered. Be prepared to pay cash otherwise the beloved banks will take 3 days out of your 5 to clear the deal. In other words: it can't be done in peacetime! ■
