Bonfiglioli's BX/MX Motors First Step In its Expanding IE3 Product Series

April 28, 2015
Bonfiglioli recently released the new energy-efficient BX/MX motors, reinforcing BonfiglioliĀ“s commitment to environmental preservation.
 
The BX/MX motors fulfill several requirements and environmental norms. The motors meet standards of IE3 efficiency class, according to the international standard IEC 60034-30. 
 
In addition to meeting IE3 standards, the BM/MX motors are also compliant to Ecodesign Requirements for Electric Motors (Regulation (EC) No 640/2009 - Commission Regulation (EC) No 640/2009 of 22 July 2009 implementing Directive 2005/32/EC) as set forth by the European Parliament and the Council with regard to Ecodesign requirements for electric motors.
 
The BX/MX motors offer an efficient and cost-effective solution that has a lower environment impact. The motors provide protection degree up to IP65 as well as thermal protection (Bi-Metallic or Ptc). Furthermore, the motors include incremental and absolute encoder availability and an anti-condensate drain. All these features make the BX/MX motors suited for a range of applications that require low energy consumption, particularly continuous duty actions.
