Cooling Tower Direct Drive
ABB combines proven laminated-frame motor technology, a high-performance permanent-magnet rotor and a matched adjustable speed drive to deliver high-torque direct drive motors purpose-built for cooling towers.
Gearless reliability for cooling tower performance
ABB Baldor-Reliance® direct drive cooling tower motors deliver high torque at low speeds while eliminating gearboxes, belts and jackshafts that fail in wet, corrosive environments. Designed for HVAC systems and large cooling towers—including power plant installations—these motors reduce maintenance, improve uptime and operate quietly with exceptional efficiency. The result is long-term reliability where harsh conditions demand it most.
Technical data
CTDD motors combine high-pole PM salient pole rotor designs with variable speed drives to provide efficient, low-speed, high-torque operation for direct fan drive in cooling tower applications.
