Industrial Motors Powered by Wolfspeed Silicon Carbide Meet Leading Efficiency Standards.

Industrial electric motors, including industrial low voltage motor drives, servo drives, heat pumps and air conditioners, together account for more than 45% of all global electricity consumed annually. Wolfspeed silicon carbide (SiC) devices enhance overall motor efficiency by up to 2.6% or more, reduce overall system losses by up to 50%, and meet stringent efficiency standards including IE4, SEER, ESSER and SCOP levels in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa; and China’s GB21455 standards. Additionally, silicon carbide enables system designers to integrate drives and motors, designing smaller, lighter, less complex embedded industrial drives.
