IP55 protection provides dust and water ingress defense, reducing unplanned downtime and extending service intervals in dusty or humid environments. The cast-iron frame (Frame Size 280) delivers rugged mechanical strength, improving vibration resistance and longevity on heavy-duty conveyors, mixers, and pumps. A four-pole construction paired with IE1 efficiency supports stable speeds and energy-conscious operation, lowering operating costs on continuous processes such as packaging lines and process automation. The S1 duty rating confirms suitability for uninterrupted operation, while the IMB3 IM1001 mounting class ensures straightforward installation and alignment in existing enclosures. Durable bearings (6316/C3) and a ro-bust rotor design minimize maintenance needs, even in high-temperature or high-altitude applications up to 1000 m. Flexible rotor direction (Both sides) and a 280 frame housing enable adaptable drive layouts for retrofits and multi-line configurations.

FAQs
Plan for a four-pole, IP55 motor with a cast-iron 280 frame, designed for continuous duty (S1). Use IMB3 mounting and the D‑End top terminator box for straightforward wiring. Ensure adequate cooling clearances around the enclosure and access to the 6316/C3 bearings for routine maintenance. The design supports reversible rotation directions for flexible drive layouts.
The motor operates with IE1 efficiency, delivering full-load performance around 92.7% at 50 Hz and 93.2% at 60 Hz in standard conditions. With four poles, it maintains stable speed and torque for general automation tasks. Its continuous-duty capability (S1) supports sustained operation on conveyors, pumps, and fans without compromising reliability.
Yes. The ABB 3GBA282240-ADT is rated for S1 continuous operation, with a robust cast-iron housing and protective IP55 sealing. Its design also includes reliable bearings and IMB3IM1001 mounting, which simplifies installation in existing packaging or process lines while delivering consistent performance during long production runs.
Key technical compliances include IP55 ingress protection and insulation class ICLF, suitable for environments with dust and modest heat. The motor is built to meet general industrial standards for efficiency (IE1) and continuous operation in common manufacturing settings, supporting reliable performance across conveyors, pumps, and process equipment.
IP55 protection minimizes dust ingress, reducing filter and bearing contamination. The cast-iron frame and size 280 housing offer excellent rigidity, lowering vibration and wear on bearings (6316/C3). Durable IMB3 IM1001 mounting simplifies alignment and service access, while the S1 duty rating and IE1 efficiency lower energy costs and downtime over the motor’s lifecycle.
