How to read a Lafert type designation

Example: AMPE 90L BA 4 – the type on the nameplate tells you the efficiency class, frame and poles.

AMAsynchronous motor, fan cooled
PEQE = IE4 · PE = IE3 · PH = IE3 NEMA · HE/EE = IE2 · M = single-phase · BY/BZ/S = brake
90IEC frame – shaft height in mm
L BAFrame length, variant, A = aluminium / G = cast iron

Frequently asked questions

Where are Lafert motors made?

Lafert is an Italian manufacturer based in San Donà di Piave (Venice). Since 2018 the Lafert Group is a member of Sumitomo Drive Technologies.

Which Lafert motor is IE3?

The AMPE series (400 V 50 Hz) and the AMPH series (460 V 60 Hz, NEMA Premium). IE3 brake motors are AMPEBY, AMPEBZ and AMPES.

Which Lafert motors can be used in Saudi Arabia?

For three-phase motors from 0.75 to 375 kW SASO 2893 requires IE3: choose AMPE / AMPH (IE3) or AMQE (IE4).

Can you supply Lafert spare parts?

Send us the motor type, mounting arrangement and serial number from the nameplate together with the part you need, and we quote the spare part or a complete replacement motor.

Can you replace an old Lafert motor?

Yes. Send a nameplate photo; if the model has been replaced, we propose the current Lafert motor with the same frame, mounting and output in the efficiency class your country requires.

Need Lafert motors in the Middle East?

Send us the Lafert type, kW and mounting – or a nameplate photo – and we reply with a quotation.
