Why Permanent Magnet Explosion-Proof Motors Cut Power Consumption by Half?
I. Cutting Power Consumption by Half Is No Marketing Gimmick — An Inevitable Outcome of Structural Innovation
Built-in permanent magnetic rotor eliminates all excitation loss
The motor rotor is equipped with self-optimized high-performance NdFeB permanent magnets independently developed by BOMAG, generating a constant strong magnetic field without external excitation current. This completely erases two major power-wasting factors: rotor copper loss and excitation loss.
IE4 ultra-premium energy efficiency, high efficiency across all working conditions
The motor efficiency fully meets Class 1 standard specified in GB 30253-2013 Limited Values and Energy Efficiency Grades of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors. Even under 25% light-load conditions, efficiency remains above 90%, while traditional explosion-proof motors often drop below 70% efficiency under light loads.
Power factor close to 1, reducing power grid losses
No additional reactive power compensation devices are required, cutting reactive losses on the power grid side. This not only slashes the motor’s own power draw but also lowers the power supply load of the entire production line and extends the service life of transformers and other power supply equipment.
II. Uncompromised Safety: Dual Breakthroughs in Explosion-Proof Grade and Reliability
(1) Authoritative Certifications Cover All Application Scenarios
(2) Upgraded Structural Design to Prevent Hazards at the Source
Reinforced flameproof enclosure with outstanding explosion resistance
Constructed from high-strength cast iron via precision casting and pressure resistance testing, the enclosure withstands maximum pressure generated by internal explosions. Special flameproof joint surface design prevents flame propagation outward, avoiding ignition of flammable and explosive external media.
Low temperature rise design reduces ignition risks
Thanks to high-efficiency energy-saving core design, the motor operating temperature rise ranges only from 80K to 120K, lower than the 90K–140K range of conventional motors. Combined with Class F insulation system and totally enclosed self-fan cooling structure, the design fundamentally mitigates explosion risks caused by equipment overheating.
High protection grade adapts to harsh working conditions
The motor reaches IP55 protection grade with excellent dustproof, waterproof and anti-corrosion performance. It resists erosion from chemical media, water splashes and dust in underground coal mines, ensuring long-term stable operation in extreme environments and reducing production shutdowns caused by equipment failures.

Totally enclosed IP55 protection offers waterproof and splash-proof performance with stable continuous operation. Low temperature rise design eliminates overheating risks, providing consistent power for underground drainage and hydraulic systems and cutting maintenance frequency.
(2) Oil, Gas & Chemical Industry: Energy-Saving Pioneer for Explosive Environments
Oilfield pumping units, water injection pumps and oil transfer pumps
Adaptable to harsh field conditions with resistance to extreme temperatures and corrosion. Low-speed high-torque design matches intermittent operation of pumping units, achieving an energy-saving rate of 25%–50%. After replacing 10 sets of 55kW permanent magnet explosion-proof motors, one oilfield saved over 800,000 kWh of electricity per year.
Chemical plant compressors, blowers, circulation pumps and reactor agitators
Ex d IIB T4 Gb explosion-proof grade suits various chemical medium environments. Constant precise rotational speed meets refined control requirements for reactor stirring. Low noise and low vibration improve workshop working conditions and reduce equipment wear.
LNG/liquefied gas stations and gas filling stations
Low temperature rise and spark-free design eliminate ignition risks. Compact and lightweight structure fits narrow installation spaces inside stations. High energy efficiency cuts station operation costs, delivering safe and reliable power for oil & gas loading/unloading and pressurization.
(3) Grain, Food & Pharmaceutical Industry: Clean Power for Dust Explosion Prevention
Grinders, conveyors and fans in flour and feed mills
Dust explosion-proof structure blocks dust ingress into the motor interior to avoid explosions from accumulated dust. High energy efficiency lowers workshop power consumption, and low-noise design optimizes operating environments for workers.
Grain silo ventilation fans and conveyors
Totally enclosed design with dust and water resistance adapts to humid, dusty silo environments, enabling stable long-term continuous operation with prominent energy-saving effects to guarantee safe grain storage and reduce warehouse operation costs.
