Specification — 3000W High-Power

3000W Brushless DC Motor For Electric Boats, Heavy EVs And Industrial Machinery.

3kW sits at the threshold where brushless DC motors move from light-duty mobility into serious industrial and marine territory. At this power level, motor selection directly affects vehicle range, thermal management and drivetrain cost. Shenghe manufactures 3000W BLDC motors in 48V, 72V and 96V windings with continuous duty ratings, paired with planetary or worm gear reducers for torque multiplication.

  • Rated power 3000W continuous
  • 48V / 72V / 96V DC voltage options
  • Planetary and worm gearbox available
  • IP54 standard, IP65 for marine use
Why 3kW BLDC

Benefits Of The 3000W Power Class

  • Sufficient continuous power for electric boats up to 6 m and EVs up to 500 kg
  • Multi-voltage design — same stator, different winding for 48V / 72V / 96V
  • High torque density reduces the need for extreme gear ratios
  • Brushless longevity eliminates carbon brush maintenance in harsh environments
  • Regenerative braking capable — recovers energy on downhill and deceleration
  • Peak output up to 6kW handles short-duration overloads and hill starts
