A major chemical processing facility in Southeast Asia was facing repeated shutdowns due to unreliable motor performance in its hazardous production zones. The existing motors could not withstand the corrosive atmosphere and high ambient temperatures, leading to frequent failures and safety concerns. To resolve this, the company collaborated with Simo motors to deploy their advanced EX induction motors, designed specifically for explosion-proof and high-risk industrial environments.

Simo motors supplied a series of custom-engineered EX induction motors with reinforced insulation systems, flameproof enclosures, and precision-balanced rotors. These motors were installed in the plant’s mixing and pumping units, where safety and continuous operation were top priorities. Each motor underwent a rigorous testing process to ensure compliance with international ATEX and IECEx standards.

After six months of operation, the facility reported a 40% reduction in maintenance downtime and zero incidents of overheating or spark generation. The robust design of the Simo motors EX induction motors proved particularly effective in handling both fluctuating loads and corrosive vapors, enhancing overall operational stability. Engineers also noted improved efficiency and smoother torque performance compared to the older motors.

The plant manager emphasized that switching to Simo motors was not only a safety upgrade but also a financial win, with measurable savings in maintenance costs and reduced production interruptions. The case has since become a benchmark example of how Simo motors’ EX induction motors can deliver reliability and safety in critical industrial applications.
