How OrangeShield™ Motor Covers Work

Motor failures are a leading cause of costly downtime in industrial facilities. If your motors are battling dust, dirt, slurry, or other contaminants, it’s time to act. OrangeShield™ Motor Covers are engineered to eliminate these problems at the source, keeping your motors running smoothly and your facility operating at peak efficiency.

Why Do Motors Fail?

Clogged cooling fins are one of the primary reasons for premature motor failure. Contaminants like paper stock, coal slurry, and cement dust block airflow, trapping heat around the motor. This leads to dangerous temperature spikes in drive-end bearings and windings, shortening the motor’s lifespan and increasing your maintenance costs.

Don’t let motor failures eat into your profits. Protect your investment with OrangeShield™.

How Do OrangeShield™ Motor Covers Work?

OrangeShield™ Motor Covers snap directly over your motor’s frame, providing a durable shield that keeps cooling fins clean and unobstructed. Contaminants like pulp, slurry, and dust settle on the cover instead of the motor, allowing air to flow freely through the fins. This unrestricted airflow efficiently dissipates heat, reducing internal temperatures and extending motor life.

With OrangeShield™, you ensure maximum cooling efficiency and motor protection.

Proven Results: 140% Increase in Surface Airflow

Independent testing, validated by IEEE reports, confirms that OrangeShield™ Motor Covers significantly improve motor performance. By directing airflow more effectively across the motor’s surface, our covers achieve a 140% increase in surface airflow and reduce internal motor temperatures by an average of 23°F. These cooling benefits directly translate into longer motor life and fewer unplanned shutdowns.

Choose OrangeShield™ and experience the proven difference in motor reliability.
