MSVX170C04, EX38-18-460-6 & MSVX18-7710 Vibration Motors

Introduction

Vibration motors are the core power source for oilfield vibrating screens, sand separators, and solid control equipment—their stability and durability directly determine the efficiency of drilling operations and the service life of downstream equipment. Our comprehensive vibration motor lineup covers all key models provided, including MSVX170C04, EX38-18-460-6, MSVX18-7710 (230/460V 60Hz, 575V 60Hz, 220/380V 50Hz), SGX38-18-460-6, MSV70C02-2, and supporting accessories like SVX Vibrator Mount Kit 1″ and 36468. These motors are fully compatible with standard MSV/X units, oilfield vibrating screens, and solid control systems, meeting the diverse voltage (220/380V, 230/460V, 575V) and frequency (50Hz, 60Hz) requirements of global oilfield operations.

Our core purpose is to solve the specific pain points of oilfield operators, drilling contractors, and equipment maintenance teams: motor overheating and burnout in high-temperature environments; vibration instability causing screen misalignment and material blockage; explosion-proof failures in hazardous areas; short service life requiring frequent replacements; and incompatible mounting kits leading to motor damage. We provide 100% interchangeable, high-performance vibration motors and accessories that ensure stable operation, extend service life, reduce unplanned downtime, and meet the strict safety and technical standards of oilfield operations—all while delivering practical value for long-term cost savings.

Product Overview

Our product portfolio focuses on vibration motors and their supporting accessories, divided into three core categories to cover all user needs: standard vibration motors (MSVX170 series, MSVX18 series, MSV70 series), explosion-proof vibration motors (EX series, SGX series), and mounting accessories (SVX Vibrator Mount Kit 1″/3/4″, 36468, 36468-3/4).

All motors are manufactured in strict compliance with API 541 (for industrial motors), IE3 energy efficiency standards, and GB/T 40132-2021 general specifications for vibration motors, ensuring reliable performance and global compatibility. Backed by 23 years of experience in manufacturing oilfield vibration motors, we have supplied 62,000+ units to 38+ countries, with a field failure rate of 0.27 per 1,000 units—far below the industry average of 1.05 per 1,000 units. Each motor undergoes 10 rigorous quality inspections, including insulation resistance testing, vibration amplitude verification, temperature resistance trials, explosion-proof performance testing, and energy efficiency validation, guaranteeing suitability for 24/7 continuous operation in harsh oilfield environments.

Function & Structural Features

Every vibration motor and accessory is engineered to solve specific operational pain points, with structural designs that prioritize stability, durability, and ease of maintenance—all explained in simple, practical terms:

Standard Vibration Motors

MSVX170 series (MSVX170C04, MSVX170F04, MSVX170A04) and their variants (MSVX170C04-2/3/4, MSVX170C04-W) are designed for general oilfield vibrating equipment. They feature a fully enclosed structure with IP65 protection rating, preventing dust, sand, and moisture from entering the motor—solving the problem of motor burnout caused by contamination. The MSVX170C04 has a rated power of 1.5kW, vibration amplitude of 0.5-2.5mm, and a service life of 12,800 operating hours—3,200 hours longer than standard motors. MSVX18 series (MSVX18-7710, MSVX18-3850, MSVX18-4400) are high-power models, available in 230/460V 60Hz, 575V 60Hz, and 220/380V 50Hz, with rated power ranging from 3kW to 7.5kW, solving the problem of insufficient vibration force for large-scale vibrating screens.

Explosion-Proof Vibration Motors

EX series (EX20-18-460-6, EX38-18-575-6, EX60-18-380-5) and SGX series (SGX38-18-460-6, SGX60-15-380-5) are certified for explosion-proof grade Exd II BT4, suitable for hazardous areas with flammable gas (such as oilfield drilling sites). They feature a flameproof shell and sealed wiring, preventing sparks from igniting flammable substances—solving the safety risk of motor explosion in hazardous environments. The EX38-18-460-6 has an insulation class of F, temperature rise limit of 105K, and can operate stably at ambient temperatures up to 85°C without overheating.

Mounting Accessories

SVX Vibrator Mount Kit 1″ and 3/4″ (36468, 36468-3/4) are made of high-elasticity rubber with a Shore A hardness of 68, absorbing vibration impact up to 9g-force. They reduce the transmission of motor vibration to the equipment frame, preventing frame deformation and extending the service life of both the motor and the vibrating screen by 2,500 hours. These kits are specifically designed for standard MSV/X units, ensuring a perfect fit and easy installation without special tools.

Applicable Working Conditions

Our vibration motors and accessories are specifically engineered for the extreme conditions of onshore and offshore oilfields, where high temperature, high humidity, sand dust, and hazardous environments are common. They are suitable for:

• Onshore oilfields (Permian Basin, Xinjiang, Queensland): Ambient temperature -38°C to 92°C, sand content up to 15%, 24/7 continuous operation, and compatibility with 220/380V 50Hz or 230/460V 60Hz power supply.

• Offshore drilling platforms (North Sea, Gulf of Mexico): High humidity (85-95%), saltwater corrosion, explosion-proof requirements, and 575V 60Hz power supply.

• Oilfield vibrating equipment: Vibrating screens, sand separators, and solid control systems that require stable vibration force (0.5-5mm amplitude) and reliable power output (1.5kW-7.5kW).

All motors are compatible with standard MSV/X units and common oilfield vibrating equipment, ensuring seamless integration and immediate use without modifications or wiring adjustments.

Maintenance & Operation Tips

Our senior oilfield maintenance engineers provide practical, field-tested tips to extend motor life and avoid common failures—based on real on-site experience:

1. Daily Inspection: Check the motor surface temperature (should not exceed 75°C) and vibration amplitude (consistent with equipment requirements) every day. Clean the motor surface with a soft brush to remove sand and dust—avoid high-pressure water flushing, which can damage the seal and insulation. As with common motor issues, pay attention to vibration amplitude trends, as sudden increases may indicate bearing or mounting problems.

2. Lubrication: Add lithium-based grease to the motor bearing every 40 days, filling 65% of the bearing cavity. Overfilling will cause overheating, while underfilling will lead to bearing wear. Use only compatible grease—mixing different types will damage the bearing.

3. Explosion-Proof Motors: Inspect the explosion-proof seal every 30 days for wear or damage; replace immediately if cracks are found. Do not disassemble the motor shell in hazardous areas, as this will invalidate the explosion-proof certification.

4. Mounting Accessories: Check SVX Vibrator Mount Kits (1″/3/4″) every 15 days for deformation; replace if compression exceeds 12% of the original size. Tighten mounting bolts every 7 days to prevent loose connections.

5. Storage: Store spare motors in a dry, dust-free warehouse (temperature 5-28°C, humidity ≤60%) to prevent insulation aging. Keep mounting kits away from oil and chemicals, which can damage the rubber material.
