Danfoss OMR 160 dealer, supplier or distributor: what “new Danfoss” really means now Ask a seller for a new Danfoss OMR 160 and you’ll hear “yes, in stock.” Before you believe it, ask a second question: new what? Danfoss’s own motor has been discontinued, and a replacement from another maker has taken its place. So “new Danfoss” can mean old stock, a White-made successor or an aftermarket copy. They’re different products with different prices and warranties. Advance Hydraulic Works works with hydraulic pump and motor repair and supply from Delhi NCR, and this is how we’d sort it out with you. The motor in numbers A reseller datasheet gives the motor’s displacement as 159.6 cm³, with a continuous speed of 375 rpm (470 intermittent), continuous torque of 300 N•m (390 intermittent, 460 peak), power of 10 kW (12.5 intermittent), a pressure drop of 130 bar (175 intermittent, 225 peak) and a flow of 60 litres per minute (75 intermittent). The common version is the 151-0414, which is a straight 25 mm shaft version with no drain port. Notice the torque. The next size down, the 125, is also rated at 300 N•m continuous, but at a higher speed and pressure. So the bigger motor doesn’t give you more continuous torque. It gives you the same torque at lower pressure and lower speed. That’s worth knowing before you pay for the larger size. What “discontinued” means A Czech reseller’s page states that Danfoss OMR hydraulic motors are not produced anymore, and the 151-0414 has been replaced by 11186658, made by White Drive Motors & Steering. The White version is listed with the previous Danfoss number 151-0414, made in Poland, weighing 7.85 kg. A German shop shows the Danfoss number as sold out, with the manufacturer shown as White Drive and the new material number 11186658. So a seller of a new Danfoss OMR 160 today is offering one of three things: leftover Danfoss stock, the White successor or an aftermarket motor. Ask which. Danfoss OMR 160 dealer: what to ask A Danfoss OMR 160 dealer usually sells to workshops and factories, often buying from a distributor. Ask: is it old Danfoss stock, the White 11186658 or an aftermarket motor? Ask for the answer in writing, with a plate photo. Danfoss OMR 160 supplier: the loosest label A Danfoss OMR 160 supplier can be any importer, trader or reseller. Ask where the motor came from and who gives the warranty. Aftermarket listings use wording like “for Danfoss” with a 1-year warranty and a China origin. That’s fine if the seller says so. Advance Hydraulic Works sits in the supplier group, and we’d rather you check than assume. Danfoss OMR 160 distributor: the strongest claim A Danfoss OMR 160 distributor should hold an appointment from the maker, and for the current motor that maker may be White, not Danfoss. Ask for the document and check it with the maker. Read the listing, not just the label One Indian marketplace listing for the 151-0414 shows a price of ₹42,599, in stock, with a motor speed of 20 RPM, a rated speed of 6,000 RPM, single phase and cast iron. Single phase and 6,000 rpm make no sense for a hydraulic motor. On the same page, other sellers list the motor at ₹8,099 and ₹11,800. That’s more than a fivefold spread in one place. A templated spec table and a wild price range don’t prove anything is wrong with the motor. They do tell you the listing wasn’t checked. The method: status, maker, ratings, proof Status. Ask whether the motor is old Danfoss stock, the White successor or aftermarket. Maker. Ask who made it and for the part number, 151-0414 or 11186658. Ratings. Check the continuous values: 375 rpm, 300 N•m and 130 bar. Proof. Ask for an appointment letter if the seller claims one, and a plate photo. A worked example Say three sellers quote. A says “new Danfoss 151-0414,” at a high price, with a plate photo showing the old Danfoss number. B says “White 11186658,” at a lower price, with the plate and the previous-number cross-reference. C says “new” at the lowest price and nothing else. If you want the exact original, A may be right, but you’re paying for old stock. If you want a current part, B is clearer. C needs two questions answered before you pay a rupee. A seller who can say which of the three they are is one you can compare. This is an illustrative case, not a quote. Implementation steps 1. Photograph the old motor’s nameplate, shaft and flange before removal. 2. Write down the full part number and note whether it has a drain port. 3. Work out the continuous torque, speed and pressure your machine needs. 4. Send the details to Advance Hydraulic Works and at least one other seller. 5. Ask each seller to say whether it’s old Danfoss stock, White-made or aftermarket, in writing. 6. Ask for the maker, part number, condition and warranty. 7. Check any “authorised” claim with the maker. 8. Compare the delivered motor’s plate with your order, then fit it and run it unloaded first. The usual mistakes are trusting “new Danfoss” without asking what it means, believing a templated spec table and skipping the plate check. FAQs Who is a Danfoss OMR 160 dealer? A dealer sells to end users, often buying from a distributor. Ask whether it’s selling old Danfoss stock, the White successor or an aftermarket motor. What does a Danfoss OMR 160 supplier do? A supplier is a looser term that includes importers and traders. Ask where the motor came from, its condition and who gives the warranty. How do I find a real Danfoss OMR 160 distributor? Ask for a written appointment and check it with the maker. For the current motor, that may be White Drive Motors & Steering. Is the Danfoss OMR 160 discontinued?
