The Scorpion MS132M4 is a three-phase induction motor from the Scorpion range. The rated output is 7.5 kW. The motor is four-pole, which at 50 Hz gives a synchronous speed of 1,500 rpm. The housing is frame size 132 M in foot-mounted form. The protection class is IP55. The efficiency is 88.7 per cent at full load, 87.2 per cent at 75 per cent load and 84.4 per cent at half load. The mounting arrangement to IEC 60034-7 is B3. The motor is built in China. The figures come from the Australian MEPS register under standard AS/NZS 1359.5:2000 (Legacy); measured to IEC 60034-2-1 (Edition 2.0). Rated output across the Scorpion range ranges from 0.75 to 75 kW; the MS132M4 sits at the bottom of that range with 7.5 kW. Its immediate neighbours are the YSSS132S-4 below it with 5.5 kW and the Y160L-6 above it with 11 kW. 71 Scorpion models across 2 series are on record. The model is listed under Electric motors. 21 verified figures from 1 source are on file.

Scorpion – other models: the collective page of MEPS-registered three-phase motors outside the named ranges, manufactured in China, frame sizes 80 to 280, 0.75 to 75 kW, 2- to 6-pole

This page gathers the Scorpion three-phase motors the Australian energy-efficiency register could not assign to a named range. No confirmed data on the company itself is available. The identifiers in the register are inconsistent: alongside the MS code (e.g. MS100L-2, MS132S4), designations with other prefixes also appear.

The register lists here 64 versions with 0.75 to 75 kW, two- to six-pole, full-load efficiencies from 74 to 93.77% and at 75% load from 72.89 to 93.9%. Frame sizes run from 80 to 280, protection is mostly IP55 (60), alongside IP66 (4). China is recorded throughout as the manufacturing country. Testing mostly followed AS/NZS 1359.5:2004 (33) and the older 2000 Legacy standard (30), with test methods B (53) and A (11); of 64 motors, only 1 carries a documented High Efficiency Level, the remaining 63 stay unclassified.

Scorpion thus appears as one of several value-priced suppliers in the Australian market, with a range of small to medium standard motors for pumps, fans and general drive tasks.

When buying used, what matters is bearing condition and a checked insulation resistance of the winding, visible corrosion on the terminal box and fan cover, the condition of shaft and key, and a legible nameplate with frame size and pole count; since practically none of the motors carries a High Efficiency classification, actual efficiency should be measured if in doubt. Spares and support depend on the distribution channel.

Frequently asked questions

How much power does the Scorpion MS132M4 have?

The Scorpion MS132M4 delivers 7.5 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.
