Uni-Drive Stainless Steel Motor Range

UNI-DRIVE Stainless Steel Motors are engineered for hygiene-critical, corrosion-resistance, and washdown requirements, making them ideal for food, beverage, pharmaceutical, and processing industries. Built with 300-series stainless steel housing and a sealed TEFC enclosure, they provide excellent corrosion resistance, efficient heat dissipation, and reliable performance in harsh washdown and high-humidity conditions. Designed for continuous duty, the motors feature a 1.15 service factor, sealed bearings, internal anti-corrosion coating, and a robust squirrel-cage rotor for long service life with minimal maintenance. With flexible mounting options (C-face or footed mounting), inverter compatibility, IP55 protection, and thermistor protection, they deliver energy-efficient, durable, and hygienic operation for demanding industrial applications.
