The Centripro CAB 160M2-2 comes from the CAB series. The rated output is 15 kW. The motor is two-pole, which at 50 Hz gives a synchronous speed of 3,000 rpm. The rated voltage is 380 V. The housing is frame size 160 M in foot-mounted form. The protection class is IP55. The efficiency is 91.3 per cent at full load, 91.6 per cent at 75 per cent load and 90.6 per cent at half load. The motor weighs 119 kg. The mounting arrangement to IEC 60034-7 is V1. The motor is built in China. The figures come from the Australian MEPS register under standard AS/NZS 1359.5:2004; measured to IEC 60034-2-1 (Edition 2.0). The CAB series covers 14 models. Rated output within it ranges from 1.1 to 45 kW; the CAB 160M2-2 sits in the lower part of that range with 15 kW. Its immediate neighbours are the CAB 160M1-2 below it with 11 kW and the CAB 160L-2 above it with 18.5 kW. 14 Centripro models are on record.

CentriPro CAB – other models: the collective page of the Pentair-brand pump motors, MEPS-registered outside the named ranges, frame sizes 80 to 225, 1.1 to 45 kW, exclusively two-pole, made in China

This page gathers the CAB-range three-phase motors from CentriPro the Australian energy-efficiency register could not assign to a named range. CentriPro is a brand of the US group Pentair for motors and pump sets. Model designations such as CAB 100L-2 or CAB 200L2-2 combine the IEC frame size (100, 200) with the build length (L, M, S) and the -2 pole-count suffix for the exclusively two-pole versions typical of direct drive for centrifugal pumps.

The register lists here 14 versions with 1.1 to 45 kW, exclusively two-pole, full-load efficiencies from 83.1 to 93.7% and at 75% load from 83.8 to 93.4%. Frame sizes run from 80 to 225, protection is consistently IP55, voltage is 380 to 400 V; manufacture is in China, testing followed AS/NZS 1359.5:2004 consistently with test method B, with no motor reaching a documented High Efficiency classification.

As pump motors, the CAB types chiefly drive centrifugal pumps in water supply, irrigation and industry, where the two-pole build delivers the high speeds typical of pumps; Pentair markets CentriPro motors mainly through the North American and Australia-Pacific pump markets.

When buying used, bearing condition and a checked insulation resistance of the winding, corrosion marks on the terminal box and fan cover from pump service, the condition of shaft and key, and a legible nameplate with frame size and voltage all matter; spares run through the Pentair/CentriPro distribution network.

Frequently asked questions

How much power does the Centripro CAB 160M2-2 have?

The Centripro CAB 160M2-2 delivers 15 kW.

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.
