big electric motor 3000 kW - startup test sound

We present a typical 3000 kW motor start in our test field. You can see and hear how such a big motor starts. The accelerating takes about 90 seconds from 0 to 993 min-1. This is the maximum speed that a 6-pole slip ring motor of this size can achieve. Enjoy the big motor starting sound! The video shows a three-phase asynchronous motor with slip ring rotor with a nominal voltage of 10500 V and a power output of 3000 kW. It features a shaft height of 630 and a total weight of approx. 13.5 tons (including cooling system) - a typical motor size of our day-to-day business.
