Why Choose the TECO C2-55-6B5 55 kW 6 Pole AC Motor?

The TECO C2-55-6B5 is a heavy duty three phase squirrel cage induction motor engineered for continuous industrial service where reliable torque and reduced operating speed are required. Built with a rugged cast iron frame and supplied in IEC B5 flange mounted configuration, it is designed for direct coupling to pumps, compressors and process machinery.

The 55 designation indicates a rated output of 55 kW, while the 6 pole configuration provides a nominal speed of approximately 1000 rpm at 50 Hz. This makes it well suited to applications demanding strong torque at moderate speeds. The B5 mounting style enables secure flange mounting directly to driven equipment in accordance with IEC standards.

Key Features

  • Rated output: 55 kW.
  • Pole configuration: 6 pole design for approx. 1000 rpm at 50 Hz.
  • Mounting: IEC B5 flange mounted configuration.
  • Construction: Cast iron frame for durability and vibration resistance.
  • Duty rating: Continuous duty S1.
  • Cooling method: Typically IC411 totally enclosed fan cooled.
  • Efficiency class: Commonly IE2 or IE3 depending on specification.
