FAQs
The ABB 3GBA182410-BDNCN is designed for IMB5 IM3001 mounting on a 180 frame. Use the D connection configuration for 400 V 50 Hz systems and ensure the terminator box is positioned at the D-End top for accessible wiring. Verify ambient temperature does not exceed 40 °C and maintain IP55 protection for dusty or moist environments to ensure long-term reliability.
IE4 efficiency indicates superior electrical efficiency under both full and partial loads, reducing energy consumption compared with lower efficiency motors. For an 18.5 kW motor operating at 50 Hz, expect noticeable reductions in running power losses, contributing to lower utility bills and cooler motor temperatures, which in turn lessen cooling requirements and extend bearing life in continuous operation.
Yes. The motor carries an IP55 enclosure rating, offering robust protection against dust ingress and water spray. Paired with IC411 insulation and a cast-iron frame, it is well-suited for factory floors with dust, humidity, and high ambient temperatures up to 40 °C. This combination helps maintain performance and minimizes unplanned maintenance in harsh environments.
This 18.5 kW, 4-pole motor excels in conveyors, pumps, and fans within manufacturing and processing lines. Its IE4 efficiency, IP55 protection, and rugged IMB5 mounting support continuous-duty operations in demanding environments. The 400 V, 50 Hz configuration also ensures compatibility with standard plant electrical systems, making it a strong retrofit choice for upgrading energy-intensive drives.
Plan routine checks of bearing condition (6310-2Z/C3 and 6210-2Z/C3 on the NDE side) and insulation integrity given IC411 class. Monitor temperatures to stay within ambient limits (40 °C) and ensure proper cooling, especially in high-load runs. Periodic inspection of the IMB5 IM3001 mounting and terminator box connections helps minimize unplanned downtime and extend service life.
