ABB has announced the M2QA IE5, the first low-voltage three-phase asynchronous motor to meet national Level I energy efficiency standards, with ultra-high energy efficiency, more reliable structural design, better insulation system, lower temperature rise and excellent customization capabilities, achieving important breakthroughs in energy efficiency and reduced return on investment.

The promotion of high-efficiency equipment in China’s industrial sector is one of the key ways to successfully achieve the goal of “dual carbon” and accelerate the development of new quality productivity. With the introduction of a number of national policies to support the development and application of energy-efficient equipment, the entire industrial market has become more and more demanding for high-efficiency motors. The outstanding energy-saving and emission reduction effect brought by ABB M2QA IE5 products will further promote the transformation of Chinese industry to efficient energy and move towards a green future.

ABB’s first national standard Class I energy efficiency motor, ultra-high energy efficiency, born in response to the situation

As a classic of ABB, M2QA series motors are highly efficient, reliable, economical and durable, and have been favored and praised by customers in all walks of life for more than 20 years. In the process of development and iteration of M2QA IE5, the latest concept of motor design is combined with big data analysis technology and other means, through a more optimized electromagnetic scheme, not only to achieve a leap-forward improvement in motor energy efficiency, but also significantly reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions, and significantly shorten the return on investment cycle. Under normal circumstances, the loss of IE5 motor is about 40% lower than the currently commonly used IE3 motor, taking a 15kW 4P motor as an example, the IE3 motor is replaced with IE5 ultra-efficient motor, which can save more than 4000 degrees a year, the return on investment cycle is only about 11 months, and the annual emission reduction of carbon dioxide is as high as 2.9 tons.

As a classic product in the Chinese market, while adhering to the original excellent characteristics, the iterated M2QA IE5 is further optimized according to the needs of Chinese users, adopting advanced technology and technology more suitable for mass production, ensuring stable batch production to achieve ultra-high efficiency, and greatly improving product performance and reliability, with lower temperature rise and stronger overload capacity. The application industry is more extensive. Among them, new and upgraded projects in high energy consumption industries such as petrochemical industry safety areas, pulp and paper, power, water treatment, food and beverage, and electronic semiconductors can directly apply M2QA IE5 ultra-efficient motors or replace existing low energy efficiency motors, thereby achieving significant savings in energy costs and effectively reducing carbon dioxide emissions.

M2QA series products since its birth, is ABB for the Chinese market research and development of high-end general low-voltage three-phase asynchronous cast iron motor. The new iteration of the M2QA IE5 motor, with its bearings and structure strengthened again, is more durable, and adopts ABB’s global insulation system solution, equipped with the option of special insulation system solution, which can fully extend the service life of the motor; Based on various performance improvements and enhanced reliability, ABB has extended the standard shelf life of the M2QA IE5 from 1 to 2 years, giving customers more peace of mind.

In addition, the new iteration of M2QA IE5 continues the consistent configuration and flexible design, and the expansion of the structure makes it more customized, which can provide solutions for most motor application scenarios, including detractors, compressors, reducers and pumps, as well as special equipment for special scenarios such as grinding machines, paper machines, conveyor belts and mixers. In addition, to further assist partners in smarter development of new quality productivity, M2QA IE5 can also be paired with ABB AbilityTM digital solutions to help customers achieve safer and smarter operations, improve resource efficiency and achieve energy savings by providing real-time, data-based insights and decision support.

ABB’s emphasis on the Chinese market is not only reflected in the design optimization of motors according to the needs of Chinese customers, but also in strengthening China’s local research and development and production capacity. At present, the M2QA IE5 motor can achieve local flexible delivery goals. At the same time, ABB also provides Chinese customers with service support covering the whole life cycle to meet customer needs with more efficient and high-quality products and services.

The introduction of the M2QA IE5 is not only another confirmation of ABB’s leadership in the field of motor manufacturing, but also a significant reflection of ABB’s commitment to energy efficiency and sustainable development. This leap underscores ABB’s determination to go beyond itself and always respond to customer needs with improved product performance and service. Looking to the future, ABB will continue to rely on keen industry insight and persistent technological innovation, committed to promoting the efficient and green development path of China’s industrial sector in a wider range of applications, and work with Chinese industrial partners to move towards a more environmentally friendly and sustainable future.
