The Toshiba CD280S-2 is a three-phase induction motor. The rated output is 75 kW. The motor is two-pole, which at 50 Hz gives a synchronous speed of 3,000 rpm. The housing is frame size 280 S in foot-mounted form. The protection class is IP55. The efficiency is 94.5 per cent at full load, 93.5 per cent at 75 per cent load and 92 per cent at half load. The motor is built in Germany. The data is based on the Australian MEPS registration under standard AS/NZS 1359.5:2004; measured to IEC 60034-2-1 (Edition 2.0). Rated output across the Toshiba range ranges from 0.73 to 180 kW; the CD280S-2 sits in the middle of that range with 75 kW. Its immediate neighbours are the ZWE225M2 below it with 55 kW and the CD280M-2 above it with 90 kW. 1060 Toshiba models across 6 series are on record.

Toshiba International – other models: the collective page of MEPS-registered three-phase motors outside the named ranges, frame sizes 80 to 355, 0.73 to 160 kW, 2- to 8-pole, High Efficiency Level 2005/2018

This page gathers the Toshiba International three-phase motors the Australian energy-efficiency register (GEMS/MEPS) could not assign to a named range. Toshiba International Corporation (TIC), headquartered in Houston, Texas, is the industrial-motor subsidiary of the Japanese Toshiba group and supplies IEC standard motors chiefly to the North American and the Australia-Pacific markets. The designations recorded in the register, such as *2Y3-A0110 or *2Y3-B0900, clearly follow an internal modular scheme of a range code, a letter for the frame or winding variant and a four-digit sequence that distinguishes individual versions within the range.

The register lists here 919 versions with 0.73 to 160 kW, two- to eight-pole, full-load efficiencies from 70 to 96.5% and at 75% load from 68.5 to 96.62%. Frame sizes run from 80 to 355 under IEC, protection ratings from IP00 to IP66, and the mounting codes cover practically the whole spectrum from B3 through B14, B34 and B35 to the vertical forms V1 to V36. China, Taiwan, Australia and Germany are recorded as manufacturing countries, often in combination for a single range; testing followed the GEMS determinations of 2012 and 2019 and AS/NZS 1359.5, with test methods A, B and 2-1-1B. For 840 of the 919 motors the High Efficiency Level classification is documented: 347 reach the 2018 level (roughly IE3), 272 the older 2005 level (roughly IE2), the rest none.

The page thus covers the broad industrial-motor programme with which Toshiba International competes alongside ABB, Siemens and WEG for applications in pumps, fans, conveyors and compressors; registration under the Australian GEMS standard shows that a substantial part of the North American programme is also certified for the Australian market.

When buying used or replacing, 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; anyone wanting to run the motor on a variable-speed drive should check its inverter suitability. Spares and support run through the TIC sales network.

Frequently asked questions

How much power does the Toshiba CD280S-2 have?

The Toshiba CD280S-2 delivers 75 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.
