Submersible Motors
MX Series



Subteck submersible motors are three-phase asynchronous motors featuring a short circuit rotor.
Designed as wet-running motors with a watertight insulated winding, these motors are rewindable and adhere to the NEMA standard for an 8-inch motor connection. The bearings are lubricated by a motor filling comprising glycerine and water, providing biodegradability and anti-freeze protection down to -25 °C, with the option to replace it with pure drinking water. Axial down thrust is managed by an axial thrust bearing with individual tilting pads, while high-quality mechanical seals encapsulate the motors. A reliable balance system ensures pressure compensation between the motor and its environment. These motors are suitable for horizontal and diagonal positions based on nominal power, operating in both clockwise and anticlockwise directions. Their high efficiency guarantees minimal operating costs, and Subteck provides a comprehensive supply of control and monitoring equipment for all their motors.
Every Subteck motor is usable for frequency transformer operations, but following recommendations should be considered:
Soft starters are very qualified to start a submersible motor. They grant:
