Feature → Business Impact → Application: The 200 frame size and cast-iron frame deliver rugged mechanical integrity, reducing vibration and extending service life in demanding installations such as material handling and extrusion lines. This translates to lower replacement costs and fewer unplanned downtime events in continuous operations. The IP55 rating provides reliable dust and water ingress protection for factory floors and outdoor installations, enabling longer runtimes in conveyors and pumps without enclosure upgrades. IC411 insulation supports sustained performance in moderate ambient temperatures, while the 40 °C ambient rating ensures consistent torque delivery in hot plant zones, improving overall process stability in packaging and processing lines. The 6-pole, single-speed design with S1 duty ensures predictable speed and torque in fixed-speed drives, delivering dependable operation for fans, blowers, and pump duties. The IMB3/IM1001 mounting compatibility simplifies installation and spare-parts planning, reducing installation time and inventory costs. Bearing configurations (6212-2Z/C3 and 6209-2Z/C3) minimize maintenance intervals and extend bearing life in high-load applications, especially in belt-driven systems and mixers. With a cast-iron frame and a robust termination box located at D-End top, wiring and serviceability become straightforward, lowering commissioning time and risk for your automation project.

FAQs
This motor uses a 200 frame, cast-iron body and IMB3 mounting. The termination box is located on the D-End top for easy wiring, and bearings 6212-2Z/C3 and 6209-2Z/C3 support reliable startup and steady torque. Ensure compatibility with your existing VFD/controls and confirm space for the 6-pole, single-speed configuration.
IE Class IE1 data indicates Full Load efficiency around 91.0% and partial-load values near 90.4–90.9% at 60 Hz, depending on load. With a 6-pole, 3-phase design and S1 duty, you’ll experience stable torque and predictable speed in continuous operation, making it suitable for fixed-speed drives in pumps and conveyors.
Yes. The IP55 protection level guards against dust and water ingress, and the robust cast-iron frame adds resilience in harsh factory floors. For extended life in dirty environments, combine with appropriate cable glands and enclosure options, and maintain bearings per schedule to maximize uptime in conveyor applications.
The squirrel cage design is known for simplicity and reliability, minimizing maintenance needs. The bearings (6212-2Z/C3 and 6209-2Z/C3) are selected for long service life under moderate radial loads, and the IMB3 mounting supports straightforward service access. Overall, maintenance intervals are extended, reducing downtime and total cost of ownership in continuous processes.
