At Woods Air Movement, product development is rarely about change for the sake of change. The focus is always on refining performance, improving usability, and responding to the practical needs of installers, contractors, and end users.
That thinking sits behind the latest updates to the DT motor range.
While the changes may appear subtle at first glance, they represent a series of meaningful improvements designed to make installation easier, improve long-term reliability, and deliver greater efficiency without compromising the control methods customers already rely on.
One of the key developments within the new DT motors is improved motor efficiency while retaining voltage speed regulation.
For many customers, voltage control remains a familiar and widely used method of fan speed adjustment. Rather than forcing a move away from that approach, the updated DT range has been engineered to deliver higher efficiency while maintaining compatibility with voltage regulation.
The result is a more refined motor design that supports improved performance without introducing unnecessary complexity or requiring major changes to existing installation approaches.
Another practical improvement is the introduction of loose leads as standard across the range.
Although simple in concept, this change provides far greater flexibility during installation, helping make on-site wiring and connection easier for engineers and contractors.
It’s a small design detail that can make a noticeable difference in real-world applications, particularly where installation conditions are tight or where flexibility is important.
The updated DT motors also feature an internal capacitor design.
By positioning the capacitor internally rather than externally within the airstream, the component is better protected from environmental exposure and potential damage over time. This helps support improved long-term reliability and durability in operation.
There is also a performance benefit. Removing external components from the airflow helps preserve the aerodynamic characteristics of the fan, avoiding unnecessary disruption within the airstream and maintaining overall fan performance.
The latest DT motor updates are a reflection of a broader engineering approach - improving products in ways that matter in real installations and day-to-day operation.
From installation flexibility to efficiency gains and reliability improvements, the focus has been on delivering practical enhancements while retaining the features customers already value.
It’s not about reinventing the product. It’s about engineering it better.
