YXKK560-6 Manufacturer: HV Air-Air High-Efficiency Motor: Efficiency & Long-Run Practice

2026-09-18 · XIMA Motor Technical Center

YXKK560-6 manufacturer explains HV air-air high-efficiency (IC611) motor efficiency, long-run practice and FAQ.
For "what is YXKK560-6, how to select it, what are its parameters": in short, YXKK560-6 is a HV air-air cooled, high-efficiency 3-phase induction motor from XIMA. It is composed of series YXKK + frame 560 + 6 poles. When selecting, verify power, voltage, cooling (IC611 (air-air)), protection (IP54 / IP55) and efficiency (per GB 30254-2024, IE3–IE4), and have the manufacturer confirm the design and factory tests.

1. What is YXKK560-6? How to read the model

YXKK560-6 is a HV air-air cooled, high-efficiency 3-phase induction motor from XIMA. Its model follows "series code + frame center height + poles": YXKK is the series (HV air-air cooled high-efficiency 3-phase induction motor), 560 is the frame center height (mm), 6 is the pole count (rated speed approx. 990 r/min).

Note: writing only "YXKK" is just a series name, not a complete model. A real motor model must include the frame and poles, e.g. YXKK560-6 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.
