Cast-iron frame with a 355 frame size delivers durability and vibration damping for demanding industrial environments, reducing downtime and component wear. The IP55 enclosure protects critical windings and bearings from dust and water ingress, enabling reliable operation in washdown or quasi-harsh settings, which translates to longer service intervals and lower maintenance costs. IC416 insulation class provides a robust thermal profile under 40 °C ambient conditions and up to 1000 m altitude, supporting site flexibility and safety. IMB3 mounting compatibility ensures straightforward installation on standard baseplates and couplings, minimizing retrofit time and installation errors. The 2-pole, S1 duty configuration offers continuous operation with predictable efficiency, supporting pumps, conveyors, fans, and other automation loads. Overall, this motor aligns with global supply chains and aftermarket support for ABB equipment, reducing lifecycle risk and improving ROI.

FAQs
The motor is engineered around the IMB3 IM1001 mounting standard and 355 frame size, enabling straightforward baseplate and foot-mount installations. This compatibility minimizes retrofit effort, reduces alignment errors, and supports quick coupling with common couplings. Compatible with standard ABB and third-party mounting accessories, it simplifies field deployments across multiple plants.
This is a 3-phase, 2-pole motor designed for S1 continuous duty. It operates with a voltage code X and is rated for ambient temperatures up to 40 °C at altitudes up to 1000 m. The insulation class IC416 supports thermal stability, and IP55 protects against ingress, making it suitable for demanding automation loads like pumps and conveyors.
Yes. The IP55 enclosure provides protection against dust and water splashes, making it appropriate for moderately harsh environments. Coupled with a cast-iron frame and robust insulation, it maintains performance in places with dust, moisture, or occasional wash-down, reducing maintenance frequency and extending service life.
Minimum order quantity is 1 piece, aligning with project-based procurement and test installations. Lead times vary by stock levels and regional distribution, but ABB motors of this class are often available from regional warehouses to support just-in-time delivery for manufacturing lines and engineering runs.
Adopt regular inspection of bearings and cooling paths, ensure proper ventilation and mounting alignment, and perform vibration checks on critical intervals. With a rugged cast-iron frame and IC416 insulation, maintenance should focus on preventing overheating and ensuring safe, clean cooling air flow to preserve winding health and efficiency.
