Cast iron frame construction and a 280 frame size provide robust mechanical strength and effective heat management, reducing vibration and extending bearing life. This translates to lower maintenance costs and fewer unplanned downtime events in high-load conveyors and pump stations. IP55 protection minimizes dust and water ingress, enabling reliable operation on crowded factory floors or outdoor installations, which lowers enclosure cost and downtime in harsh environments. IE1 efficiency data at 50 Hz and 60 Hz yields Full Load efficiencies around 92.7–93.2%, helping lower energy bills across rotating load profiles while maintaining compatibility with standard VFD control schemes and a 4-pole design. The S1 continuous-duty rating, together with an altitude tolerance of up to 1000 m and a 40 °C ambient limit, ensures stable torque and speed in variable plant conditions, supporting continuous production with minimal performance drift. D-End top terminator box and 6316/C3 bearings simplify installation, maintenance, and service access, enabling faster commissioning and reduced total cost of ownership. The cast iron housing and weight characteristics reflect a design optimized for longevity in demanding lines like conveyors, pumps, and fans, aligning with ABB’s integrated drive ecosystem for predictable ROI.

FAQs
Begin by confirming compatibility with a standard 280 frame base and aligning the motor to a level mounting surface. Use the D-End top terminator box for electrical connections, observe the 1000 m altitude and 40 °C ambient limits, and reference the nameplate data for voltage code D and IE1 ratings. Ensure proper grounding and cable routing for drive integration.
The motor is a 4-pole, 3-phase unit designed for S1 duty with voltage code D. IE1 efficiency data shows Full Load performance of 92.7% at 50 Hz and 93.2% at 60 Hz. It features IP55 protection, insulation class ICLF, and a D-end top terminator box, enabling reliable operation and straightforward drive compatibility in standard industrial electrical environments.
Yes. With a 4-pole configuration, cast iron frame, and IP55 protection, the motor handles continuous duty (S1) in demanding lines such as pumps and conveyors. Its compatibility with ABB drive systems, 40 °C ambient tolerance, and robust bearing arrangement support stable torque, reduced vibration, and dependable performance in continuous processing environments.
The motor carries IP55 protection and insulation class ICLF, supporting reliability in dusty and damp environments. IE1 efficiency data provides a baseline for energy performance at 50 and 60 Hz. The unit is designed with a D voltage code and standard ABB mounting practices, ensuring compatibility with common industrial control and drive systems.
The heavy-duty cast iron housing, 6316/C3 bearings, and D-End top box contribute to long service life with reduced maintenance. IE1 efficiency reduces energy costs over the motor’s lifecycle, while IP55 protection lowers enclosure-related maintenance. Overall, this design supports lower downtime, predictable performance, and faster return on investment in automated production lines.
