The price of an AC motor is often asked about as if it were a single number, but it actually varies across a wide range depending on the motor's power, speed, efficiency class and frame material. So the right way to understand price is to know, before the label, which technical features make a motor expensive or economical. DRG Motor provides a clear price with a current quotation prepared for your need.

How Power and Speed Affect Price

An AC motor's price is set most of all by its power (kW); there is a large gap between a small 0.55 kW motor and a 355 kW heavy-industry unit. Speed also matters: at the same power, a low-speed 6-pole 1000 rpm motor is larger and costlier than a 2-pole 3000 rpm one.

Efficiency Class and Material

The efficiency gap between IE3 Premium and IE4 Super Premium is reflected in price through the use of higher-grade lamination steel and copper. A cast iron frame is more durable than aluminium but more costly, and this choice also changes the total price.

Reading Price Together with Running Hours

A motor with a low label price can cost more in the long run if it runs at low efficiency. In continuous (S1) applications, the small energy a high-efficiency motor consumes makes up for the initial price gap over time, so price should be weighed together with usage intensity.
