Vertical Motors

Vertical motors that have been revolutionizing the industry since 1922

Vertical motors revolutionized the pumping industry back in 1922 – thanks to the introduction of our U.S. MOTORS® brand vertical HOLLOSHAFT® motor. Nidec, as the world’s most comprehensive maker of electric motors, continues to produce innovative vertical motors today. These motors provide key benefits to those who use them, including convenience, cost-effectiveness and reliability.

Convenience comes from eliminating the need for a separate mechanical gearbox. Having fewer pieces of equipment translates to easier installation and increased room. It’s also easier to align the motor shafts with the driven equipment, resulting in reduced vibration. Cost-effectiveness comes thanks to fewer parts and more efficient operation. Reliability comes courtesy of the fact that vertical motors are designed specifically for pumping applications. They deliver exceptional reliability and durability, keeping pumping processes running smoothly for long periods of time.
