KUFO – other models: the collective page of MEPS-registered three-phase motors from Taiwan outside the named ranges, frame size 132, 5.5 to 7.5 kW, two-pole
This page gathers the KUFO three-phase motors the Australian energy-efficiency register could not assign to a named range. The designations recorded in the register, SK-18CS and TC16, do not follow a uniformly recognisable public system; both motors do, however, share the same IEC frame size 132.

The register lists here 2 versions with 5.5 to 7.5 kW rated output, both two-pole, for a 415 V or 230/400 V supply, with full-load efficiencies from 87.7 to 89.3% and at 75% load from 87.7 to 89.61%. Protection ranges from IP54 to IP55, the mounting code is B3 (foot type), testing followed AS/NZS 1359.5:2004 with test method A. Manufacturing takes place in Taiwan.
Two-pole three-phase motors of this power class run at a synchronous speed of 3,000 rpm at 50 Hz and are a common drive for compressors, centrifugal pumps and sawmill machinery, where high speeds without a gearbox are wanted; the IP54 and IP55 ratings differ only in the degree of dust protection, both guarding against splashing water from all directions.
When buying used, bearing condition and a checked insulation resistance of the winding, the condition of the terminal box and fan cover, the condition of shaft and key, and a legible nameplate with frame size, pole count and protection rating matter. Spares run through KUFO's Taiwanese distribution.

The Kufo SK-18CS delivers 5.5 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.
