Century-old North American engineering with global manufacturing
In 2018 Wolong Electric Group —the world's third-largest motor manufacturer— acquired GE's industrial division, including the iconic Fort Wayne, Indiana plant. The result: the GE engineering that equips thousands of petrochemical and process plants across North America stays in place, now backed by a global manufacturing chain that improves availability and price without compromising design or NEMA certifications.
X$D Ultra — The benchmark petrochemical motor
Designed to IEEE 841 for severe duty in refining, petrochemicals and heavy chemicals: reinforced TEFC enclosure, regreasable bearings with an anti-condensation system, class F insulation with class B rise and a 1.15 service factor. It comes with one of the longest warranties in the industry: 5 years on the complete motor, bearing train included.
- Vibration and noise below NEMA MG1
- Nameplate with PPI / API 541-547 traceability
- Ready for variable frequency drive operation (MG1 Part 31)
Standards and certifications
Every GE motor ships with the traceability and compliance that EPC projects, insurers and energy efficiency audits require.
