Ⅱ. IE5 Permanent Magnet Synchronous Integrated Motor MGE Series: Eight Core Advantages 

1. Higher efficiency: IE5 with super-grade 1 energy efficiency, leading industry standards under all operating conditions. The product complies with the GB30253-2024 standard, achieving IE5-level efficiency indicators. With a power rating ranging from 0.37 to 37 kW, it has been registered as Grade 1 in the China Energy Efficiency Network.

2. Enhanced Energy Efficiency: Reduces power loss at the source, resulting in significant long-term savings on electricity bills. The product features built-in high-performance permanent magnets that completely eliminate excitation losses typical of conventional motors, ensuring low energy consumption under both light and full loads – enabling continuous operation 24/7 without power consumption concerns. Using the 22 kW model as an example, compared to a synchronous motor of equivalent power, it saves over 10,000 kWh annually, with the investment cost recovered within just over a year; subsequent electricity savings represent net profit.

3. Enhanced stability: Low temperature rise and reduced failure rate ensure continuous, reliable operation around the clock. Through comprehensive improvements in electromagnetic design, structural optimization, and manufacturing precision—including refinement of magnetic circuit topology, suppression of high-frequency harmonics, enhancement of vibration-damping structures, and precise assembly—the system effectively mitigates high-frequency vibrations and noise, resulting in quieter and more reliable performance.

4. Enhanced Intelligence: Integrated frequency conversion drive with built-in digital control capabilities. Equipped with a dedicated smart controller that employs a zero-drag vector control algorithm to automatically detect pump load variations and precisely regulate speed, torque, and power. Supports intelligent soft start/stop (eliminating water hammer effects) and constant-pressure closed-loop control, featuring integrated energy-saving logic for demand-based frequency conversion to reduce consumption.

5. Reduced weight: Compact size and significant weight reduction save installation space. At the same power level, permanent magnet motors are 25%–40% lighter than asynchronous motors (the exact ratio varies by power rating).

6. Outstanding energy-saving performance: Compliant with the dual-carbon policy. The entire system passes EMC testing and fully meets all technical, regulatory, and delivery requirements specified in the project tender.

7. Mutability during installation: It is fully interchangeable with asynchronous motors. The flange dimensions strictly comply with IEC 60072-1:2022 and GB/T 4772.1-2025 standards. This eliminates the need to modify equipment mounting structures, transmission components, or wiring configurations, enabling immediate deployment for rapid energy savings and efficiency improvements.

8. Superior cost-effectiveness: High efficiency at an affordable price. Controllable initial investment with optimal total lifecycle costs, and premium specifications without excessive pricing. Permanent magnet motors deliver outstanding performance at reasonable prices, significantly reducing overall user costs and offering the best value-for-money among motors of similar class – truly delivering top-tier performance-to-price ratio!

Fortunately, the MGE series permanent magnet motors independently developed by Lingxiao Pump Industry have been applied in vertical multi-stage pumps and have obtained national patent certification as an invention patent, titled "A Permanent Magnet Motor for Vertical Multi-Stage Pumps".

III. Empowering a New Era of Green and Energy-Efficient Industrial Development 

Intelligent permanent magnet variable-frequency centrifugal pumps fall into two main categories: fully enclosed air-cooled models and water-cooled models, both equipped with IE5 permanent magnet synchronous integrated motors. These pumps find extensive applications in building water supply systems, industrial pressurization, and circulating water replenishment across residential, commercial, and industrial sectors, supporting prolonged continuous operation and making them the ideal choice for energy-efficient equipment upgrades.

1. CRE/CRNE series intelligent permanent magnet variable-frequency vertical multi-stage pumps: featuring integrated pump, motor, and controller. The CRE model is made of cast iron (QT500-7 ductile iron with cathodic electrophoretic corrosion protection), while the CRNE model uses precision-cast stainless steel (SUS304/316). With rated power ranging from 5.5 to 110 kW, flow rates of 95–155 m³/h, and head capacities of 15–261 m, these pumps are suitable for building water supply and industrial pressurization applications.

2. The CRAE/CRNAE/CRLAE series of intelligent permanent magnet variable-frequency vertical multi-stage pumps: The A-series model features an optimized design and is available in three variants—CRAE (cast iron), CRNAE (precision cast stainless steel), and CRLAE (stamped stainless steel)—with power outputs ranging from 0.37 to 110 kW, flow rates of 1–320 m³/h, and head capacities of 11–250 m, delivering both high performance and excellent cost-effectiveness.
