Drive engineering company SEW-Eurodrive will supply ten of its new DRN IE3 premium efficiency motors from its DR series to the extension of the existing Meyerton Wastewater Treatment Works, south of Johannesburg, in Gauteng, at the end of next month.
The company will also supply six 45 kW motors and four 55 kW motors from its DRN series that will be installed onto the aerators at the treatment works.
The DRN motors meet premium efficiency requirements and are IE3-approved to IEC60034-30-1.
SEW-Eurodrive head of projects Rudi Swanepoel tells Engineering News that SEW had to adhere to unique technical specifications for this project and, therefore, had to provide a customised solution using auxiliary equipment provided by SEW.
The DRN IE3 motors were officially launched at last year’s Electra Mining Africa exhibition. Swanepoel highlights that, since displaying the motor at the stand, there have been client enquires and market interest has been positive.
