AW90BLY Series — 90mm Brushless DC Motor
The AW90BLY series is Apexwell's 90mm-diameter, 4-pole brushless DC motor line, offered as a standalone motor without a gearbox or brake. Unlike Apexwell's other bare-motor frame sizes, the two models in this series are not a simple body-length family on one shared voltage and speed — they span a wide performance range, from a 48V/1,100 RPM/69W low-speed model to a 310V/2,700 RPM/904W high-power model — so each model should be evaluated on its own specifications below.

Model Comparison
| Model | Nominal Voltage | Rated Speed | Rated Torque | Rated Current | Output Power | Peak Torque | Peak Current | Body Length | Mass |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| AW90BLY75-411 | 48 VDC | 1,100 RPM | 0.6 N·m | 2.5 A | 69 W | 1.8 N·m | 7.5 A | 75 mm | 1.8 kg |
| AW90BLY160-627 | 310 VDC | 2,700 RPM | 3.2 N·m | 3.5 A | 904 W | 9.6 N·m | 10.5 A | 160 mm | 4.9 kg |
Torque constant is 0.27 N·m/A (AW90BLY75) or 0.91 N·m/A (AW90BLY160); back-EMF constant is 21.9 Vrms/kRPM (AW90BLY75) or 60.6 Vrms/kRPM (AW90BLY160). Rotor inertia is 2.1 kg·cm² for the 75mm model and 7.1 kg·cm² for the 160mm model.
Wiring
Each AW90BLY motor exits with a star-connected power cable for the U/V/W windings and a separate Hall sensor cable (+5VDC, GND, HU, HV, HW) at a 120° Hall electrical angle for standard 6-step commutation.
Typical Applications
The AW90BLY75-411 suits lower-speed, lower-power applications on a standard 48V supply — small pumps, fans, and light industrial drives supplying their own external reduction. The AW90BLY160-627 targets higher-power industrial equipment running on a rectified 310VDC bus — hoists, large fans, and heavier direct-drive or externally-geared loads needing nearly 1kW of output.
Why Choose the AW90BLY Series
As bare motors without a gearbox or brake, both AW90BLY models keep cost and axial length to a minimum for designs that supply their own mechanical reduction or mounting. Because the two models differ substantially in voltage, speed, and power rather than following a single scalable family, this series is best treated as two distinct motor options on a shared 90mm frame rather than a graduated product line — confirm which model matches your supply voltage and power requirement before specifying. Voltage, speed, shaft size, lead wire length, mounting spigot, and mounting hole pattern can all be customized on request.
We can customize the electrical parameters of the motor and geometric dimensions such as the motor output shaft size according to customer requirements. Accessories including pulleys, eccentric gearboxes, planetary gearboxes and encoders can also be added.
