Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about HYPERION X motors and their ecosystem.

The HYPERION X range covers a power range from 0.5 kW to 600 kW, with speeds from 1,000 to 80,000 rpm. This versatility covers both small high-speed applications and the most demanding industrial test benches.

S1 duty refers to continuous constant-load operation, with no time limitation. Unlike motors that require derating in continuous service, HYPERION X motors are designed to deliver their rated power continuously, without drive oversizing.

HYPERION X motors are fitted with triple angular contact ceramic bearings, suitable for high-speed mounting up to 80,000 rpm and power up to 600 kW. Ceramic bearings offer heat resistance, increased service life and reduced friction losses compared to standard steel bearings.

The carbon rotor is offered as an option. It achieves accelerations up to 150,000 rpm/s, is 40% lighter than an equivalent steel rotor and offers increased magnetic flux. It is particularly recommended for applications requiring very rapid speed ramps.

As standard, each motor includes temperature probes on the front and rear bearings for real-time monitoring of bearings and windings. Optionally, up to 6 three-axis accelerometers (X, Y, Z) can be added for vibration monitoring, with an integrated cable cover for better cable management.

HYPERION X motors are compatible with several position feedback types depending on the application: resolver, sin/cos or incremental encoder. This choice allows adaptation to precision requirements and the drives used.

Two drives are qualified and recommended: the Parker AC30 for high-precision vector control sized precisely, and the ABB ACS880 for high-power industrial applications (0.55 to 3,200 kW). Both eliminate any unnecessary drive oversizing.

HYPERION X motors use water cooling. Water inlets and outlets are available on both left and right as standard, offering complete integration flexibility on the bench. For thermal regulation of the circuit, the Parker Hyperchill Plus achieves ±0.1°C precision, ideal for intensive cycles.

A snubber is an electronic filter placed between the drive and the motor to limit overvoltages induced by long cable runs. It is recommended whenever the distance between drive and motor exceeds a few metres, in order to protect the winding and ensure long-term reliability.

Yes, all motors in the HYPERION X range comply with the CE directive. They are assembled in France and meet the requirements of the most demanding applications, particularly in the automotive, aerospace and industrial sectors.
