Food safe motor withstands toughest cleaning regime
ABB’s new Food Safe stainless steel motors for food and beverage plants can withstand high pressure cleaning, helping to maintain hygiene standards while reducing downtime
A
BB has launched a full range of IEC Food Safe motors designed for applications in the food and beverage industry that need frequent sanitation. The new IEC Food Safe motors are part of ABB’s Food Safe family that includes stainless steel NEMA motors, mounted ball bearings and gearing. IEC Food Safe motors feature smooth stainless steel enclosures that are easy to clean and sanitise so customers can meet increasingly stringent hygiene standards. The motors’ enclosures have an IP69 water protection rating, while encapsulated winding enable the motors to last much longer than general purpose products in tough washdown conditions. The external surfaces of the motors are self-draining, with no crevices where particles can collect. The markings are laser
etched onto the frame, avoiding channels and ridges where contaminants could accumulate. The motors can withstand high pressure sprays and are fully compatible with clean-in-place (CIP) methods. Food Safe motors also eliminate the need for motor shrouds, which can harbour food particles and allow bacteria to breed.
ABB IEC Food Safe motors are available in the power range 0.18-7.5 kilowatt, in 2- 6 pole versions for 230-690 volt at 50 or 60 hertz. They feature IE3 premium efficiency to reduce energy consumption and emissions. Flexible mounting arrangements ensure they will fit almost any application. The motors come in frame sizes 71-132.
new.abb.com Round of applause for latest enclosure
Hitaltech have a new product for the building enclosure market that is worth having a look at - it's round not rectangular
T
he company’s new building automation enclosure gives manufacturers complete
freedom to customise and personalise form and function.
It adapts to a wide range of home and industrial automation functions and is ideally suited for housing setting, measurement, detection, access control and sensor instrumentation. It has a simple, ergonomic press-and-turn operation, and comes with a universal rear wall attachment. As building automation keeps getting smarter, the enclosure is now capable of doing everything from managing the ambient temperature to controlling security camera feeds. Now, the aesthetics of building automation enclosure design are catching up with the capabilities.

Hitaltech's Eyebox range takes an altogether rounder, more compact approach to the traditional square/rectangular enclosure.
More in less The enclosure may be small - with 60mm, 110mm and 160mm options - but the simple user interface hides a
multitude of possible options, including measurement displays, settings (eg. for lighting or temperature), movement sensors, access controls, security camera controls and more.
Opulent options A simple turn or press of the ring nut is all it takes to access multiple functions, but additional click-on rings can add further setting combinations or ergonomic capability. The standard enclosure has a white ABS finish, but numerous colour, texture and finish options are available. While wall mounting (via the universal attachment) is the natural option, palm, table and inclined surface mountings are all possible. "Eyebox represents a new standard in building automation enclosure design," says Matt Hughes. "The level of functionality and the potential for customisation make Eyebox suitable for a wide range of home and industrial applications, all packed into what we believe is a genuinely beautiful building automation enclosure."
