Cast iron frame and 160 frame size provide rugged reliability and robust vibration damping, improving machine uptime and reducing maintenance needs in heavy-duty equipment such as pumps and conveyors. The IP55 protection class guards against dust and water ingress, enabling dependable operation in damp or dusty industrial environments and outdoor installations with minimal enclosure requirements. Insulation class ICLF and IC411 insulation support continuous S1 duty at ambient temperatures up to 40 °C and altitude up to 1000 m, delivering consistent performance and reduced risk of insulation failure over the motor lifecycle. Bearings specified as 6209-2Z/C3 with IMB5 IM3001 mounting ensure smooth operation and long bearing life under demanding loads, while the D-End top terminator box simplifies wiring and commissioning during retrofit projects. The 2-pole, single-speed design aligns with many standard control systems and VFDs, enabling straightforward integration and predictable torque behavior in line with plant production schedules. Minimum order quantity of 1 piece and a China origin support scalable procurement and supply chain planning for OEMs and distributors. This motor is well-suited for automation-ready environments where unified motor platforms and easy maintenance are key drivers of total cost of ownership.

FAQs
When selecting the ABB 3GBA161410-BDT, focus on the 3-phase squirrel cage motor design, 160 frame size, IP55 protection, IE1 efficiency rating, and IC411 insulation. Consider the 2-pole configuration for standard fixed-speed applications, the S1 continuous duty rating, and the cast iron frame for durability in demanding environments. Ensure the control system supports a compatible voltage code (D) and that the ambient and altitude limits (40 °C, up to 1000 m) fit your plant conditions. Also verify bearing types (6209-2Z/C3) and mounting style (IMB5 IM3001) align with your installation.
Yes. The motor is designed for integration with common variable frequency drives and control platforms used in industrial automation. Its 2-pole, single-speed configuration supports typical fixed-speed or soft-start operations, while the IE1 efficiency level helps reduce energy consumption when driven by VFDs. The D voltage code and NDE bearing arrangement are selected to simplify installation and compatible wiring, making retrofit projects smoother and reducing commissioning time.
The motor is rated for continuous S1 duty, suitable for steady-state operation in pumps, fans, and conveyors. It operates at ambient temperatures up to 40 °C and at altitudes up to 1000 m, with IP55 protection for dust and water ingress. The insulation class ICLF supports safe operation under these conditions, and the 160 frame size with cast iron construction provides robust mechanical tolerance under load. Ensure proper cooling and enclosure selection to maintain reliability.
Typical applications include industrial pumps, fans, and conveyors in manufacturing and processing environments requiring reliable, long-life operation. The cast iron frame and 160 frame size offer durability in heavy-duty applications, while IP55 protection enables outdoor or damp environments. The D-End top terminator box and IMB5 IM3001 mounting simplify wiring and mounting, reducing installation time and enabling easier retrofits into existing platforms with minimal modification.
Maintenancewise, the 6209-2Z/C3 bearings and IMB5 IM3001 mounting provide predictable bearing life and straightforward lubrication planning. Energy-wise, IE1 efficiency helps lower running costs, particularly on continuous-duty applications. The 160 frame’s robust cast iron construction reduces the risk of heat-related failures, contributing to longer service intervals and lower total cost of ownership over the motor’s lifecycle.
