Bonfiglioli BE – the Italian three-phase motor range from Italy and Vietnam, exclusively four-pole, frame sizes 80 to 180, 0.75 to 22 kW, foot and flange versions
Bonfiglioli, founded in 1956 near Bologna, is one of the large Italian makers of geared motors and electric motors. The BE range gathers the maker's three-phase motors in the small and medium IEC frame sizes; type designations follow the scheme of frame size, build length and pole count, such as BE 132MA 4 for frame size 132, length MA, four-pole, in part supplemented with a voltage rating such as BE 100LA 4 240/415-50. Alongside the standard foot version, the register also lists flange variants, for example for frame sizes 100 and 160M.

The register lists here 21 versions with 0.75 to 22 kW, uniformly four-pole, full-load efficiencies from 80.5 to 91.6% and at 75% load from 80.5 to 92.3%. Frame sizes run from 80 to 180, protection is IP54, IP55 and IP56. Manufacturing is in Italy and in a combination of Italy and Vietnam, testing mostly used test method A under the 2012 and 2019 GEMS determinations.
Bonfiglioli positions the BE range as a classic three-phase motor for the European and Australia-Pacific markets, often paired with its own gear units into complete drive assemblies for conveyors, agitators and general industrial applications.
When buying used, bearing condition and a checked insulation resistance of the winding, the condition of shaft and key, visible corrosion on the terminal box and fan cover, and a legible nameplate with frame size, build form (foot or flange) and voltage rating matter; on flange versions, the condition of the centring to the mating part should also be checked. Spares and service run through Bonfiglioli's distribution network.

What to check before buying
- Match the data plate against the order: frame size, mounting and rating have to agree.
- Check the ingress rating against the installation site — outdoors or in dust the demands differ.
- Hold the mounting form and dimensions against the existing seat before ordering.
- The pole count sets the speed — when replacing an older unit, compare this first.
- For used units, ask about winding condition and bearing play.
- Ask about parts availability for this series — the running costs hang on it.
