ABB 3GBA223210-AST 3-Phase Squirrel Cage Motor - IP55
Part Number: 3GBA223210-AST
Quick Summary
ABB 3GBA223210-AST is a 3-phase squirrel cage motor designed for reliable, high‑duty operation in harsh industrial environments such as conveyors and pumps. Operators often face downtime and premature wear when sourcing rugged motors that drop into existing cast-iron frames and mounting patterns. This model combines IP55 protection, ICFL insulation, and IE1 efficiency to deliver durable performance and reduced operating costs. With a cast-iron frame, 225 size, and a 1000 m altitude tolerance, it is built to withstand dusty, hot, or outdoor locations while maintaining steady torque. The design supports easy integration with ABB drives and standard motor controls, enabling lower installation risk and predictable maintenance. Energy efficiency and rugged construction translate to lower lifecycle costs and improved uptime for OEMs and service teams.

Feature 1: Cast iron frame and 225 frame size provide high mechanical rigidity and a robust mounting option. Business impact: improved torque transmission, reduced vibration, and longer equipment life with fewer replacement parts. Application: suitable for conveyors, pumps, and processing lines in harsh environments. Feature 2: IP55 protection and ICFL insulation enable reliable operation in dusty, humid, and outdoor locations up to 40 °C ambient and 1000 m altitude. Business impact: lowers maintenance frequency, protects windings from moisture ingress, and supports extended service intervals. Application: mining, waste-water, and outdoor processing facilities. Feature 3: IE1 efficiency ratings, with 50 Hz full-load 90.2% and 60 Hz full-load 91.7%, translate to tangible energy savings across run-time. Business impact: reduces energy costs and supports regulatory compliance for energy efficiency programs. Application: continuous process drives with variable loads. Feature 4: Bearing arrangement 6213-2Z/C3 and NDE 6210-2Z/C3 offer low friction, long life, and predictable maintenance cycles. Business impact: minimizes unplanned outages and bearing-related downtime. Application: high-cycle conveyors and demanding pumps. Feature 5: Reversible rotation (Direction of Rotation: Both sides) and S1 duty enable flexible integration with existing drive systems and simple start/stop sequencing. Business impact: lowers installation risk and accelerates commissioning in multi-directional layouts. Application: packaging lines, material handling, and wash-down environments. Feature 6: Cast iron, corrosion-resilient construction supports durability in challenging environments while maintaining compatibility with standard ABB controls and mounting patterns. Business impact: reduces total cost of ownership through longer motor life and easier maintenance planning. Application: OEM machines, retrofit projects, and field service installations.

FAQs
Plan for a compatible 225 frame, cast-iron mounting, and shaft alignment to avoid misfits. Verify the direction of rotation and ensure the mounting pattern matches common ABB or OEM bases. The motor’s reversible rotation and robust bearings help reduce alignment complexity and streamline commissioning in multi-drive lines.
At 50 Hz, full-load efficiency is about 90.2% with comparable partial-load values around 90.2% (75%) and 89.2% (50%). At 60 Hz, full-load efficiency improves to about 91.7%, with partial-load values around 91.3% (75%) and 89.9% (50%). These figures support steady energy savings across typical industrial loads and drive cycles.
Yes. The motor is rated for altitude up to 1000 meters and ambient temperatures up to 40 °C, making it well-suited for outdoor, dusty, or hot processing facilities where reliability and thermal resilience are critical.
The motor features IP55 protection and insulation class ICLF, supporting reliable operation in challenging environments. While specific SIL or CE certifications aren’t listed in the data, the combination of IP55 and ICFL insulation provides robust compliance for many industrial applications and regional regulations.
With a cast-iron frame, robust bearings (6213-2Z/C3 and 6210-2Z/C3), and a design optimized for S1 duty, the motor delivers long bearing life and reduced maintenance intervals. These characteristics translate to lower downtime, fewer spare parts, and a lower total cost of ownership in continuous production lines.
