BEI Kimco Magnetics introduced a new, rugged brushless DC (BLDC) motor that was developed specifically to withstand the harshest conditions found in the Oil Exploration Industry. The robust design also makes it suitable for other applications found in severe environments where failure is not an option.
The new 1.5” diameter DII15-60-200A High Pressure High Temperature (HPHT) BLDC motor provides the ideal solution for severe down-hole applications such as mud pulser valves, calliper deployment and sensor positioning. The motor has been successfully tested to operate under continuous duty in temperatures up to 205°C and pressures up to 30,000psi.
The motor features integral Hall commutation and uses Rare Earth Magnets to support high operating efficiencies and corrosion resistance. Designed to withstand shock to 1000g and vibration to 25g, the new BLDC motor is built to endure the most extreme environmental conditions. To fit a variety of installations, the DII15-60-200A can be customised for gearbox or other feedback device options. In addition, winding variations are offered to meet a wide range of controller voltages and currents.
