9 models for versatile applications
There are nine models of motors in the range providing power from 0.16 kW (0.21HP) to 1.8 kW (2.45HP), maximum output torques of up to 299 Nm (221 ft.lbs) and speeds of up to 21,500 rpm. They are easy to install and use, providing users with high versatility based on their needs. Power can be adjusted easily by regulating the air supply, pressure or throttling. Users have a choice of progressive or immediate start to best suit their applications.
Efficient and cost-effective solutions
The motors are efficient thanks to a lightweight and compact design. They feature internal planetary gears which contribute to a long, slim design. The motors are up to six times smaller and lighter than electric motors. This means that OEMs can reduce the overall weight of their machines. The output power inherently adjusts to match the applied load, which further enhances efficiency. It also has low friction blades, which are a lubrication-free design, enabling users to improve their sustainability. Air motors are a cost-effective solution compared to other motor types, with low installation, operation and maintenance costs.
Reliable and dependable operation in hostile or sensitive environments
The heavy-duty motors also provide reliable operation in hostile environments. They can be used in constant stop-start operations and can be stalled indefinitely without overheating or sustaining any other damage. They provide excellent, long-life performance to maximize process up-time.
Air motors from Chicago Pneumatic are ATEX certified for use in zone 2 hazardous areas. Since there is no heat generated or the possibility of sparks being created, the stainless-steel air motors also offer safe operation. There is no hydraulic fluid, which eliminates any risk of leakage, pollution or fire. In addition, they are not sensitive to electromagnetic interference, providing dependable operation in sensitive environments.
silencer B type for air motors
We offer reversible and non-reversible variations to suit all applications. The motors are available with various output shaft types including keyed shaft, threaded shaft, or hex style. They also come with a range of accessories including mounting flanges, mounting feet, silencers and chucks.
