The SEW-EURODRIVE DTE90C is a three-phase induction motor built by SEW-EURODRIVE. The rated output is 0.75 kW. The motor is four-pole, which at 50 Hz gives a synchronous speed of 1,500 rpm. The housing is frame size 90C. The protection class is IP55, IP65 and IP56. The efficiency is 82.8 per cent at full load, 81.7 per cent at 75 per cent load and 78.2 per cent at half load. The motor weighs 19 kg. At full load it delivers 4.88 Nm. Mounting arrangements to IEC 60034-7: B3, B35, B5, B6, B7, B9, V1 and V5. The motor is built in Germany. The figures come from the Australian MEPS register under standard AS/NZS 1359.5:2004; measured to AS/NZS 1359.102.3:2000. Rated output across the SEW-EURODRIVE range ranges from 0.75 to 160 kW; the DTE90C sits at the bottom of that range with 0.75 kW. Its immediate neighbours are the DAS 100M4 above it with 1.1 kW. 212 SEW-EURODRIVE models across 2 series are on record.

SEW-Eurodrive – other models: the collective page of three-phase motors outside the named ranges from the Australian GEMS/MEPS register, 0.75 to 160 kW, 2- to 6-pole, IP54 to IP66, efficiencies up to 96.5%

This page gathers the SEW-Eurodrive three-phase motors the register could not assign to a named range, from the Australian GEMS/MEPS registration database for electric motors. SEW-Eurodrive is headquartered in Bruchsal and is best known for geared motors, the combination of an electric motor with an attached gearbox; the motors recorded here, however, are the manufacturer's standalone motor ranges. The register lists several manufacturing countries at once for a number of models – for instance Germany, France, the USA, Brazil, China, New Zealand and Australia in varying combinations – reflecting SEW-Eurodrive's international plant network, though a single country of manufacture per model cannot be reliably determined from it. The type codes recognisably follow the pattern DRE-frame size-pole count, for example DRE100L4; at SEW-Eurodrive the prefix DR denotes the three-phase motor range, and the additional E marks an energy-efficient version.

The register lists here 210 versions from 0.75 to 160 kW, 2- to 6-pole, with efficiencies from 74.6 to 96.5% at both full load and 75% load, protection classes mostly between IP54 and IP66, and frame sizes from 80 to 315 (IEC). Of the 177 models with a GEMS classification recorded, 82 reach the "2005 High Efficiency Level" and one model the "2018 High Efficiency Level"; the rest carry no such classification.

SEW-Eurodrive is one of the leading drive manufacturers for machine and plant construction; the standalone motors gathered here cover the range outside the large, separately maintained series and are typically also used detached from the gearbox, for instance as a replacement motor or for direct drives.

For used SEW motors, alongside the usual checkpoints – winding insulation resistance, bearing running noise and play, free running of the shaft, condition of the fan and fan cowl – it is especially worth matching frame size, pole count, protection class and efficiency class on the rating plate against the original geared-motor fitment, if the motor came from such a combination. For inverter operation, winding insulation and bearings should be checked separately.

Frequently asked questions

How much power does the SEW-EURODRIVE DTE90C have?

The SEW-EURODRIVE DTE90C delivers 0.8 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.
