Raydafon YE3 series AC induction motor is a three-phase asynchronous motor built to IE3 premium efficiency level. Frame sizes 80 to 180 cover 0.75 kW to 22 kW in 2-pole, 4-pole and 6-pole synchronous speeds. Standard voltage is 380V / 50Hz. The rotor uses high-precision low-noise bearings, the stator uses copper wire, and the laminations are low-loss silicon steel, so current draw and heat are lower than a standard IE1 motor at the same output power. Standard mounting configurations include IM B3 foot-mounted, IM B5 large flange, IM B14 small flange, IM B34 small flange + foot and IM B35 large flange + foot, all with IEC standard dimensions. Typical applications include woodworking machinery, cranes, construction machinery, compressors, conveyors, dredgers, rolling mills and industrial fans. OEM voltages, frequencies, shaft dimensions and nameplate branding are available.
YE3 Series AC Induction Motor – IE3 Premium Efficiency for Industrial Drives
YE3 · IE3
YE3 series AC induction motor is a three-phase asynchronous motor built to IE3 premium efficiency level. The rotor uses high-precision low-noise bearings and the stator winding is wound with copper wire selected for low harmonic loss. Compared with a standard IE1 induction motor at the same output power, a YE3 motor draws less current for the same shaft power, which reduces operating cost across the whole service life. Frame sizes 80 to 180 cover 0.75 kW up to 22 kW, in 2-pole, 4-pole and 6-pole synchronous speeds. Standard voltage is 380V / 50Hz, with custom voltages and frequencies available for OEM projects. Typical uses include woodworking machines, cranes, construction machinery, compressors, conveyors, dredgers, rolling mills and industrial fans.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about IE3 efficiency, mounting, voltage and OEM supply.
What is the difference between YE3 and a standard IE1 induction motor?
YE3 series meets IE3 premium efficiency level. Compared with a standard IE1 induction motor at the same output power, YE3 draws less current, generates less heat and consumes about 10%–15% less energy over the service life. Many markets require IE3 or higher efficiency for new equipment.
What synchronous speeds does YE3 series cover?
YE3 series covers three synchronous speeds. The 2-pole version runs at about 2880–2955 rpm with rated power 0.75–22 kW. The 4-pole version runs at about 1420–1470 rpm with rated power 0.75–22 kW. The 6-pole version runs at about 935–975 rpm with rated power 0.75–15 kW.
What mounting configurations are available?
YE3 series supports IM B3 foot-mounted, IM B5 large flange, IM B14 small flange, IM B34 small flange + foot, and IM B35 large flange + foot configurations. All follow IEC standard dimensions, so the motor can drop into an existing mounting plate without modification. Custom shaft and flange dimensions are available on request.
Can YE3 series be used with a frequency converter?
YE3 series is designed for direct-on-line operation at 50Hz. For variable speed operation, the YVF2 series is the correct product, because it uses independent forced ventilation (IC416) to maintain cooling at low speed. Using a standard YE3 motor with a VFD at low speed for extended periods can cause overheating.
What voltage and frequency options are available?
Standard voltage is 380V and standard frequency is 50Hz. Custom voltages such as 220V, 400V, 415V and 460V, and custom frequencies such as 60Hz, are available on request for OEM projects.
What is the warranty period and OEM lead time?
We provide an 18-month warranty from shipment date covering manufacturing defects, with full technical support. Standard YE3 models are stocked; custom OEM orders typically ship within 25–35 working days after drawing confirmation.
