Looking Siemens, CEMP, ABB Motor Supplier

Looking Siemens, CEMP, ABB Motor Supplier

Looking Siemens, CEMP, ABB Motor Supplier

(OP)
I have some class 1 / div 1 exp motors that I need to replace but having a hard to find them
The manufacturers are Siemens, CEMP SPA and ABB.
Can anybody suggest a reputable place to contact?
Prefer USA or EU supplier. Motors are to shipped to and used in West Africa

RE: Looking Siemens, CEMP, ABB Motor Supplier

I'm not clear - are you looking for the same brand of motors and trying to find a distributor?  Or just a replacement motor?

US Motors is an option.  But these would be NEMA frame.

Toshiba USA makes a lot of motors in Houston area - not sure if they do Exp-Proof or not.  

GE still makes motors also.  

RE: Looking Siemens, CEMP, ABB Motor Supplier

are you looking for a contact in the US or a contact in West Africa? If the latter then Siemens have offices all over. The main one in W.Africa is in Lagos, Nigeria:

They will offer (typically) European versions of motors due to the supply frequency at 50Hz but can get NEMA motors shipped in from the US.
If you are looking for the US contacts for explosion proof motors, then try:

Siemens are a pretty global company so wherever you are you should find somebody willing to help.
I guess the same is true for ABB but I don't work for them. smile

Thanks for the info, I will check those links out. I am looking for the same motors, having a hard time with the CEMP SPA motor.
FYI we a a real variety here, 50 and 60Hz and Nema / IEC.
adds to the challenge

RE: Looking Siemens, CEMP, ABB Motor Supplier

Hi SparkyMV,

If you send on the info I can put you in contact with a company in Europe that can offer SIEMENS and maybe CEMP, they would be IEC frames in 50 or 60hz.
