Siemens – other models: the collective page of MEPS-registered IEC low-voltage motors outside the named ranges, manufactured in Germany and Czechia, frame sizes 80 to 315, 0.75 to 160 kW
This page gathers the Siemens three-phase motors the Australian energy-efficiency register could not assign to a named range. Siemens traditionally builds its low-voltage standard motors at plants in Germany and Czechia; the large-motors and drives business spun off on 1 October 2024 has since traded as Innomotics. The type logic of the recognisable motor families runs from the classic 1LA range – Siemens' long-standing standard low-voltage motor – through the successor 1LE1 range introduced around 2011 to the special versions marked 1PC and 1PP, whose exact classification cannot be reliably reconstructed from the dump.

The register lists here 416 versions with 0.75 to 160 kW, two- to eight-pole, full-load efficiencies from 78.6 to 96.6% and at 75% load (407 motors) from 79.1 to 96.8%. Frame sizes run from 80 to 315, protection is almost exclusively IP55; Czechia (172) and Germany (154) are represented almost equally as manufacturing countries, plus combinations of both. Testing mostly followed the 2019 (254) and 2012 (94) GEMS determinations and AS/NZS 1359.5, with test method A for the majority; of 400 classified motors, 297 reach the 2005 High Efficiency Level (roughly IE2) and 23 the 2018 level (roughly IE3), 78 remain unclassified.
Siemens is one of the world's leading makers of industrial motors; the versions gathered here supplement the named IEC ranges with older frame sizes, special versions and explosion-protection variants for pumps, fans, compressors and conveying plant in the process industries.
When buying used, bearing condition and a checked insulation resistance of the winding, the condition of shaft, key and fan cover, a legible nameplate with range (1LA, 1LE1, 1PC, 1PP), frame size and efficiency class matter, and on the older 1LA models inverter suitability, which is not given on every version. Spares and service run, depending on year, through Siemens or, since 2024, the responsible Innomotics.

Frequently asked questions
How much power does the Siemens 1CV3166A have?
The Siemens 1CV3166A delivers 22 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.
