Leroy-Somer company pays special attention to the production of electric motors, electric drives and gear motors for the food industry. One of the main requirements for equipment in the food industry is to minimize the mutual impact on the components of the technological process, i.e. electrical equipment should not cause harmful substances to be released outside and into food, and the environment should minimally affect the equipment.
Requirements that must be met in the food industry
- Constant cleaning and washing of equipment by pressure;
- No negative impact on food;
- Constant contact with aggressive media and reagents;
- Safety requirements when working in humid areas;
- Ensuring reliability and ease of installation connections;
- Hygiene requirements…
For the food industry, Leroy-Somer produces the following range of electrical equipment for the construction of automated electric drive systems:
- асинхронные электродвигатели LS iA, LS iAW, FLS iA, LSMV iAW, LS iA VARMECA;
- Proxidrive frequency converters and electric drives;
- мотор-редукторы Compabloc iA, Manubloc iA, Poulibloc iA, Minibloc iAW, Orthobloc iA, Multibloc iA.
All equipment fully complies with the operating conditions and the requirements of sanitary and hygienic standards of the Russian Federation. Our company actively uses this electrical equipment at enterprises in the meat processing and dairy industries.

Design features of Leroy Somer electric motors of the LS iAW, FLS iA, LSMV iAW, LS iA VARMECA series
- the use of lubricants made on the basis of edible oils H1 (no negative effect on food);
- enclosure with protection degree of equipment IP65, IP66 (prevents liquids and mixtures from entering the electrical equipment);
- shafts, flanges, connecting screws made of stainless steel (ensures ease of maintenance and installation work);
- additional seals (allows the equipment to be read and washed at a pressure of up to 130 bar (short-term exposure) and a liquid temperature of up to 80 ° C, in accordance with ISO 9227, the equipment is capable of withstanding exposure to highly concentrated saline solutions and mists for 600 hours).
To ensure reliability in conditions of economy, all equipment manufactured by Leroy-Somer is designed taking into account the following operating conditions:
- The equipment is subjected to frequent cleaning under high pressure;
- The presence of constant splashes, waste of food masses and media;
- The use of disinfectants and detergents;
- An environment with a high degree of condensation and humidity.
