General Information:

This motor was designed by Trans Vaal Electric for a coal mining company to replace its ageing fleet of 10 kW hydraulic pump motors.

The new motor requires no mechanical or electrical modification for fitting and has been adopted as standard equipment for the hydraulic pump drive on the shuttle car.

In addition, the new motor has been designed to operate without a cooling fan, preventing failure due to coal build up in the fan enclosure.
