YRKS630-8 Manufacturer: HV Wound-Rotor Air-Water Cooled Motor Specs & Soft-Start

2026-09-19 · XIMA Motor Technical Center

YRKS630-8 manufacturer explains HV wound-rotor air-water motor specs, LRS soft-start and heavy-duty use with FAQ.
For "what is YRKS630-8, how to select it, what are its parameters": in short, YRKS630-8 is a HV wound-rotor, air-water cooled motor from XIMA for heavy-start loads. It is composed of series YRKS + frame 630 + 8 poles. When selecting, verify power, voltage, cooling (IC81W (air-water)), protection (IP54 / IP55) and efficiency (wound rotor, IE2–IE4 ref. (GB 30254)), and have the manufacturer confirm the design and factory tests.

1. What is YRKS630-8? How to read the model

YRKS630-8 is a HV wound-rotor, air-water cooled motor from XIMA for heavy-start loads. Its model follows "series code + frame center height + poles": YRKS is the series (HV wound-rotor 3-phase induction motor (air-water cooled)), 630 is the frame center height (mm), 8 is the pole count (rated speed approx. 740 r/min).

Note: writing only "YRKS" is just a series name, not a complete model. A real motor model must include the frame and poles, e.g. YRKS630-8 or YE5-90L-6. Within XIMA's catalog, different frames/poles under the same series mean different power and mounting dimensions — always order by the full model.

3. Key technical highlights

  • Wound rotor + slip rings allow liquid resistor (LRS) or reactance starting — low start current, high start torque for mills, crushers, hoists.
  • IC81W air-water cooling for high protection in dusty cement/mine/metallurgy sites.
  • Class F insulation + VPI, wear-resistant rotor windings and slip rings for long reliable service.
  • Optional RTD, space heater, integrable to plant DCS/remote monitoring.

4. How to choose YRKS630-8 vs YRKK / YR

Within XIMA's portfolio, YRKS630-8 differs from the comparison series in cooling, efficiency and starting method. Choose by duty priority:

DimensionYRKS630-8YRKK / YR
Rotorwound (soft start)YRKK wound air-air / YR open/pipe cooled
CoolingIC81W air-waterYRKK IC611 air-air
Starthigh torque, low currentYR similar start, diff. cooling

6. Standards

  • GB 30254-2024 (wound type referenced; cage-oriented, use maker data)
  • GB/T 755 Rotating electrical machines
  • GB/T 13957 Large 3-phase induction motors
  • JB/T 7118 YR series HV wound-rotor motors

7. Information to provide when ordering

  • Full model (e.g. YRKS630-8)
  • Power, voltage (6/10kV), start method
  • Rotor circuit & start req.
  • Cooling & water params

  • Rotation, dimensions, coupling

八、常见问题 FAQ

Q:YRKS630-8 for ball mills?
A:Ball mills need large start torque; YRKS starts via liquid resistor, limiting current to 2–3× and boosting torque >2× rated for smooth heavy start.
Q:YRKS vs YRKK?
A:Cooling: YRKS IC81W air-water, YRKK IC611 air-air; both are HV wound-rotor.
Q:Maintain slip rings?
A:Periodic cleaning of rings/brushes; modern YRKS uses wear-resistant sealed parts for long intervals.
Q:Power range?
A:220–5000 kW; 630-frame 8-pole typ. 1000–2500 kW, confirmed by load.
