    Hello. I have a question. I bought a used 5.5kw engine on a certain auction site and the seller sent me the goods and the weight of this product is 18.65. Is it possible? It would seem that these engines are heavy. I am asking for an opinion

    I have a 4 kW 1450 rpm engine at my grinding mill and its weight is around 40 kg. So since yours has more power at the same speed, it should be heavier. Unless it is some super economical version for special applications?

    Hello,
    some time ago I used a 5.5 kW engine, it weighed 56 kg, slightly less than 20 kg it weighed a 2.2 kW engine. However, it was a long time ago, even in the PRL, maybe there were some "heavier" technologies at that time.

    greetings

    But I saw the nameplate and there were given the turnover and 5.5kw and it didn't look like it would have been punctured. Were there such engines? Maybe someone met with something like that?

    What producer? Engines made in Romania were in aluminum alloy housing. Their disadvantage was the construction of stator nurseries [open-cradle, difficult to rewind].

    Hello.
    It all depends on what housing (cast iron, aluminum) the engine is in. We have a very old 2.2kW 1450obr engine from the PRL production in a cast iron housing which weighs about 35-37kG, and recently I bought a used INDUKTA 2.2kW 1450obr engine which is in an aluminum housing and weighs approximately 17kG, therefore everything depends on the housing.
    Greetings.

    Relax friends, just look at the manufacturers' catalogs.
    The lightest 5.5 kW aluminum engine from the company is 42.2 kg.
    The lightest 5.5 kW aluminum engine from Tamel is 41 kg.
    So there is definitely a 5.5 kW engine in the package. Engine Weight Query: Used 5.5kW 1450 RPM Motor - 18.65kg Shipping Weight Possible?

    So you blown in, unreal such power at such a mass,
    For example, I now have an old SZJe 34a 3kW squirrel-cage induction motor at hand, weighing 37kg.
