Feature: IE4 efficiency of 11 kW at 400 V and 50 Hz significantly lowers energy consumption during continuous operation. Business Impact: Reduces operating costs over motor life while staying compliant with high-efficiency targets. Application: Suitable for pumps, fans, and conveyors in continuous duty scenarios where energy savings matter. Feature: Cast Iron frame size 160 provides superior mechanical rigidity and heat dissipation. Business Impact: Longer service life, fewer unscheduled outages, and reduced maintenance for demanding industrial environments. Application: Heavy-duty installations in foundries, water treatment, and packaging lines. Feature: IP55 enclosure and IC LF insulation class deliver robust protection against dust and moisture. Business Impact: Lower risk of bearing or winding damage in dirty or humid plants. Application: Outdoor or semi-enclosed installations and wash-down areas. Feature: IMB5/IM3001 mounting with D-end top termination simplifies retrofits and alignment. Business Impact: Faster installation, easier alignment with existing footprints, and compatibility with standard drive systems. Application: Retrofit projects and new builds requiring reliable, plug-and-play mounting. Feature: 6-pole, 3-phase, frame 160, 683.5 mm length, and weights of 178 kg net / 188 kg gross support precise engineering calculations for space planning. Business Impact: Predictable fit in compact spaces with documented mounting dimensions for site planning. Application: System integrators and OEMs designing enclosure layouts and cable runs.

FAQs
This motor uses IMB5/IM3001 mounting with a frame size 160. The termination box is located at the D-end top, and the product length is 683.5 mm with a net weight of 178 kg (gross 188 kg). Ensure compatible drive compatibility with D-configuration wiring and plan for a 400 V, 50 Hz supply.
The motor meets IE4 efficiency. At 50 Hz, full-load efficiency is 92.3%, with high efficiency maintained across partial loads (92.1% at 75% and 90.8% at 50%). This translates to meaningful energy cost savings in continuous-duty applications such as pumps and conveyors.
Yes. The motor features IP55 protection, guarding against dust ingress and water spray. Combined with a cast-iron frame and IC LF insulation, this makes it well-suited for challenging industrial environments, including outdoor or wash-down areas when properly installed.
Key regulatory markers include CE marking for European compliance and an IP55 enclosure rating. The motor uses a robust insulation class (ICLF) and a 85015230 tariff code. These features support compliance in manufacturing and processing facilities while enabling reliable operation in rigorous environments.
Frame size 160 with a net length of 683.5 mm and weight around 178 kg provides a clear footprint for planning. The D-end top termination and IMB5/IM3001 mounting simplify retrofits and integration into existing drive trains, reducing installation risk and accelerating deployment in new or upgraded lines.
