WEG W22 motors we supply

The W22 is WEG's cast-iron three-phase platform for North America — NEMA frames 143T through 588/9T, 208-230/460 V and 575 V, UL and CSA listed, and rated for VFD operation at up to 575 V with WEG's insulation system. We supply it in the versions Alberta plants run.

  • W22 general purpose in High, NEMA Premium and Super Premium efficiency.

  • W22 Severe Duty and W22 IEEE 841 for petrochemical, gas plant and refinery service.

  • W22 Crusher Duty for aggregate, mining and cement — high starting torque for crushers and mills.

  • W22 Brake motors from 0.25 to 100 HP for hoists, conveyors and packaging lines; W22 Vector Duty and W22 Magnet permanent-magnet motors for VFD-driven applications.

  • Shark stainless washdown motors, farm duty motors, explosion-proof motors, single-phase motors and Tru-Metric IEC frames.

  • W60 large motors for pumps, fans and compressors above the W22 range.

WEG drives and soft starters

A WEG motor with a WEG drive is the simplest way to get variable speed on a pump or fan without compatibility questions. We supply WEG CFW100, CFW500 and CFW900 variable frequency drives and WEG soft starters, and we size the drive to the motor, the load and the cable run rather than just the nameplate horsepower.

Who buys WEG from Alberta Rewind

OEMs and machine builders who need consistent frames and lead times. Contractors replacing a failed motor on a job that cannot wait. Oil and gas operators specifying IEEE 841 and explosion-proof motors. Aggregate and mining operations running crusher duty motors. HVAC and agricultural customers who want a reliable general purpose motor at a fair price from a shop that can also repair it.

WEG motor repair and rewind in Edmonton

We rewind and rebuild WEG motors in our Edmonton shop with a 22,000 lb overhead crane, temperature-controlled burn-out oven, VPI dip tank, electronic balancing equipment and full electrical testing. Repairs are CSA-approved and cover stator rewinds, bearing replacement, shaft repair in our machine shop and dynamic balancing. For a small general purpose motor a new W22 is often the better answer than a rewind, and we will tell you which. If the motor is inside WEG's warranty period, call us before anyone opens it — we will confirm how the claim should proceed.

WEG now owns Marathon

In April 2024 WEG acquired the Marathon, Cemp and Rotor motor brands from Regal Rexnord. Marathon motors are still made and still supported, and we handle both brands — see our Marathon motors page for how the change affects replacements and warranty.

Replacing any motor with a W22

Bring us the nameplate from any brand — a discontinued GE frame, an old Reliance, a Siemens NEMA motor that is now sold under another name — and we will cross-reference it to a W22 on frame, mounting, enclosure, voltage, speed and service factor. When lead times on the original brand are long, a W22 is frequently the fastest way to get a machine running again.

Field service for WEG-driven equipment

Our service vehicles cover all of Western Canada and the Northwest Territories: installation and removal, laser alignment, vibration analysis, winding analysis and preventative maintenance programs for the pumps, fans, crushers and conveyors your WEG motors drive.
