As Turkey's busiest manufacturing and trade hub, Istanbul is one of the provinces with the highest demand for electric motors. Textile, food, metalworking and logistics facilities make heavy use of motors across the Ikitelli, Dudullu, Tuzla and Hadimkoy industrial zones. DRG Motor supplies three-phase motors from Izmir into this broad Istanbul industrial network.

Motor Demand in Istanbul Industry

Plants in the city continuously call for motors on pump, fan, conveyor, compressor and ventilation drives. These applications are typically met by 2/4/6-pole motors in the 0.55–160 kW range. The logistics- and warehouse-heavy structure puts a premium on fast delivery and stock availability.

Efficiency Class and Energy Cost

Because energy costs are high in Istanbul, IE3 (Premium) and IE4 (Super Premium) class motors are preferred on continuously running drives. The IEC 60034-30-1 efficiency classes clearly show the difference on the bill of a motor that turns all year.

Choosing Frame and Protection Type

Istanbul's varied industrial environments also shape the choice of motor frame. A cast iron frame with IP55 protection is preferred in dusty and humid plants, while an aluminium frame is enough for light applications. Class F insulation is taken as standard on most continuous drives.

DRG Motor Supply to Istanbul

DRG Motor delivers IP55-protected, Class F insulated, B3/B5/B14-mounted motors to Istanbul facilities through its shipping and freight network. We pin down the power, speed and frame type by application and set the right motor and delivery plan together.
