Electric Motors

If you’re looking to run a hydraulics system, the use of an electric motor is an essential component. Required to drive a positive displacement hydraulic pump, very few hydraulic systems are actually able to operate without an attached motor. A good component to use is a TEC electric motor which has the qualities to keep your hydraulics system running effectively to allow you to complete the job in hand.

How does an electric motor help in a positive displacement system?

A positive displacement pump is the generic name for a pump type that doesn’t contain impellers, but rather relies on rotating or reciprocating parts to directly push the liquid into a closed volume. This continues until enough pressure is built up to allow the liquid to move into the discharge system.

Types of Electric Motor.

There are two main types of TEC electric motor;

Single Phase. Single phase motors are generally used in hydraulics systems that are used in the home, or by systems present in other environments that don’t require a heavy workload bestowed upon it.

Three Phase. More common in the industrial and manufacturing industry, a three phase motor is designed to run more-powerful hydraulic systems that require the extra ability to be able to process the liquid through the system more quickly.
