Compact motors with ULTRA-PREMIUM IE5 efficiency and built-in speed control

ABB’s LV Titanium Variable Speed Motor (VSM) is a streamlined motor-drive solution designed to deliver outstanding energy efficiency in modern industrial applications. Combining a compact design, built-in speed control, and efficiency levels up to IE5, the LV Titanium provides an Ultra-premium efficiency solution that helps customers reduce energy consumption, carbon emissions, and operational costs.

As a streamlined motor and drive solution, the LV Titanium eliminates the need for separate motors and drives. Its plug-and-play functionality enables easy installation and fast deployment, reducing wiring, commissioning effort, and overall system complexity. This makes the LV Titanium an ideal variable speed motor for both new installations and retrofit solutions.

Designed to perform across wide speed and torque ranges, the LV Titanium VSM motor delivers reliable, precise control with quiet operation, even in demanding applications. Industrial sectors including food and beverage, water and wastewater, HVAC, general machinery, data centers, and agriculture benefit from consistent performance and improved process efficiency.

With its robust cast-iron frame, the LV Titanium ensures high reliability, uninterrupted operation, and minimized downtime. A wide range of connection options makes the motor easy to integrate with PLCs and other control devices, while ABB’s customization services allow higher-volume customers to tailor the variable speed motor for a perfect match with their application requirements.

Explore the key features and benefits

The LV Titanium offers OEMs the simplest way to meet market demands for energy-saving variable speed control. End customers benefit from user-friendly operation, reduced energy consumption, lower carbon emissions and smaller power bills.

Straightforward installation
Plug-and-play functionality makes the LV Titanium very easy to install, with commissioning already done at the factory.
IE5 efficiency
Ultra-premium efficiency, reduces energy use and cuts power bills, while lower emissions help end users meet their sustainability commitments.
Easy upgrade process
The LV Titanium makes upgrading from fixed to variable speed operation simple - there’s no need to source drives separately, and connection work is reduced.
High power density
At least two frame sizes smaller than equivalent induction motors, the LV Titanium covers a wide speed range with full torque down to low speeds.
Fast integration
Modbus RTU, Ethernet, and a number of digital and analog I/Os make the LV Titanium easy to integrate with other plant equipment.
Streamlined design
The LV Titanium’s drive module has been purpose-designed to match the motor, producing a sleek unit that complements any equipment or plant environment.
User-friendly control
Flexible control features start with the integrated control panel mounted on top for fast access. An external control panel can be connected via the RJ45 port.
Enhanced safety
The integrated Safe Torque Off (STO) function meets leading standards. STO is typically used to prevent unexpected startup or implement emergency stops.
Customization services
ABB can work with customers requiring higher volumes to build LV Titanium solutions that are an ideal match with the specific application.
