The EMT Y2-280M2 is a three-phase induction motor. The rated output is 90 kW. The motor is two-pole, which at 50 Hz gives a synchronous speed of 3,000 rpm. The rated voltage is 415 V. The housing is frame size 280 M in foot-mounted form. The protection class is IP55. The efficiency is 94.2 per cent at full load, 93.4 per cent at 75 per cent load and 92.2 per cent at half load. The motor weighs 540 kg. At full load it delivers 289 Nm. The motor is built in China. The figures come from the Australian MEPS register under standard AS/NZS 1359.5:2000 (Legacy); measured to IEEE 112-B(USA). Rated output across the EMT range ranges from 0.75 to 160 kW; the Y2-280M2 sits in the middle of that range with 90 kW. Its immediate neighbours are the Y2HE 315S6 below it with 75 kW and the HE280MX4 above it with 110 kW. 274 EMT models are on record. The model is listed under Electric motors. 24 verified figures from 1 source are on file.

EMT – other models: the collective page of MEPS-registered three-phase motors outside the named ranges, frame sizes 80 to 355, 0.75 to 160 kW, 2- to 8-pole

This page gathers the three-phase motors carried in the Australian energy-efficiency register under the EMT brand, which the register does not assign to a named range. No reliable information is available on EMT's headquarters or group ownership. Alongside the core MS designation with frame size and pole count (e.g. MS100L2), the model list also contains individual entries such as Fantech or Powerdrive, which could indicate OEM supply for other brands; exactly how these entries relate to the technical figures in the list cannot be reliably established from the dump.

The register lists here 92 versions with 0.75 to 160 kW, two- to eight-pole, full-load efficiencies from 71.2 to 95.46% and at 75% load from 72.2 to 95.57%. Frame sizes run from 80 to 355 under IEC, mostly in protection rating IP55, a smaller share additionally with IP56 or IP02. Manufacturing is consistent in China, testing followed mostly the older 2000 Legacy standard, a smaller share the 2019 GEMS determinations, with test method A. Under the Australian High Efficiency Level only one of the 92 motors reaches the 2005 level, the remaining 91 carry no classification. Mounting codes mostly show the broad combination of foot, flange and vertical forms from B3 to V36.

The page thus covers a broad IEC standard-motor programme without significant efficiency certification; the wide spread of frame sizes up to 355 shows that alongside smaller drives, EMT also carries large industrial motors in its programme.

When buying used, what matters is bearing condition and a checked insulation resistance of the winding, visible overheating marks on the terminal box and fan cover, the condition of shaft and key, and a legible nameplate with frame size, pole count and efficiency class; for versions labelled Fantech or Powerdrive it is also worth checking whether they are indeed identical EMT motors. Spares depend on the distribution channel.

Frequently asked questions

How much power does the EMT Y2-280M2 have?

The EMT Y2-280M2 delivers 90 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.
