The DRG IE3 motor difference comes down to one principle: doing the same work with less energy. By reducing its losses compared with IE1 and IE2, an IE3 Premium motor delivers a larger share of the power it draws from the grid as torque at the shaft. That means lower consumption on the bill, and even steadier performance.

Where the Lower Consumption Comes From

A motor's efficiency is the ratio of output power to input power. IE3 motors use more copper winding and a low-loss lamination stack, which cuts copper and iron losses. As a result, for the same 22 kW output, fewer kW are drawn from the grid and energy is used more efficiently.

How It Shows in Performance

Lower losses also mean less heat. A cooler-running motor delivers steadier torque under load swings and reduces the risk of downtime from overheating. Class F insulation and IP55 protection sustain this performance even in demanding environments.

How the Saving Builds Over Time

On a motor that runs continuously, a small difference in efficiency turns into a large amount of energy over a year. An IE3 motor turning most of the day under S1 continuous duty recovers the price difference quickly through this cumulative saving.

Running Efficiently with DRG IE3

DRG Motor supplies 400 V / 50 Hz IE3 Premium three-phase motors from 0.55 to 355 kW in Izmir. To cut consumption while keeping performance, we can determine together the DRG IE3 motor at the power and speed suited to your application.
