Premium efficiency is achieved with IE4-rated performance, which directly lowers energy consumption and cooling load in continuous operations. This translates to measurable annual savings on electricity and reduced heat rejection in the drive train, improving overall system life. In application such as conveyors, pumps, and mixers, the motor's efficiency can help meet corporate energy targets while simplifying annual maintenance budgeting. Rugged IP55 enclosure protects against dust and water splash, while IC411 insulation supports reliable operation in challenging environments. The combination minimizes derating in dusty plants and hot facilities, enabling longer service intervals and less downtime. This is especially beneficial for outdoor installations or factories with aggressive atmospheres. A cast iron frame with a 160 frame size delivers stiffness and vibration resistance essential for high-load conveyors and pump drives. The paired bearings, 6309-2Z/C3 and 6209-2Z/C3, reduce wear and extend bearing life under continuous service. These mechanicals support efficient alignment and easier maintenance cycles. Six poles on a 160 frame harmonize starting torque with smooth operation in S1 duty, supporting steady speeds at full-load. The induction motor design (3-phase squirrel cage) provides reliable torque curves for a wide range of loads, helping to avoid nuisance trips and conserve energy. Direction of rotation on both sides and a D-End top terminator box simplify wiring, layout planning, and retrofits. This flexibility reduces installation time and makes it easier to integrate with ABB or third-party drives without extensive rework. Rated for ambient temperatures up to 40 °C and elevations up to 1000 meters, the motor maintains performance in hot, industrial sites. This resilience supports OEM equipment in manufacturing lines with elevated heat or restricted climate control. Coupled with a robust cast iron housing and premium efficiency, the motor offers a favorable total cost of ownership, reduced energy bills, and lower maintenance costs over its service life. For engineers, the combination of standardization and ABB compatibility shortens commissioning times and improves uptime.

FAQs
This motor is a standard 160 frame, 6-pole induction device designed for direct coupling to belts, gearboxes, and variable frequency drives. It tolerates common ABB and third-party drive ecosystems that accept premium IE4 motors. With a cast-iron housing and IMB5 mounting, installation aligns with existing plant equipment, and the D-End top terminal box simplifies wiring during retrofits or new builds.
Its premium IE4 efficiency delivers lower energy use under full-load, while the IP55 enclosure protects against dust and water splash in harsh facilities. The IC411 insulation supports reliable operation in demanding temperatures, and the 6-pole frame provides predictable torque. Coupled with the 160 cast-iron housing and high-quality bearings (6309-2Z/C3 and 6209-2Z/C3), it reduces unplanned downtime and maintenance costs.
Yes. The motor is rated for ambient temperatures up to 40 °C and elevations up to 1000 meters, making it suitable for hot plants and higher-altitude sites. The cast-iron frame and robust bearings tolerate vibration and heat, while the insulation class and protection rating minimize derating. For installations outside these limits, consult ABB for derating guidance.
Maintenance intervals are extended by the motor's robust mechanicals, including a durable cast-iron frame and high-quality bearings (6309-2Z/C3 and 6209-2Z/C3). For installation, leverage the D-End top terminator box and dual-side rotation for flexible wiring and layout. Regular checks should include bearing condition, alignment, and insulation integrity, especially in hostile environments where IP55 and IC411 help minimize preventive maintenance.
Energy savings from IE4 efficiency reduce operating costs over the motor's life, while lower downtime and longer bearing life boost productivity. The 3GBA163410-BDPCN's rugged build supports high-load applications with predictable torque, reducing replacement cycles in conveyors and pumps. When combined with standard ABB drives and control systems, commissioning time is shorter and maintenance planning becomes more accurate, delivering a favorable return on investment.
