FAQs
ABB M3BC 355SMB 2 uses IMB3 mounting with a 355 frame and cast-iron construction, enabling straightforward base mounting and alignment. Consider standard 355 mm footprint, 2-pole configuration, and S1 duty for uninterrupted operation. Ensure ambient temperature does not exceed 40 Ā°C and altitude remains within 1000 m to avoid derating.
The motor operates under a 2-pole configuration with an X voltage code, designed for continuous S1 duty. It features IC416 insulation class and IP55 protection. Ambient temperature is rated at 40 Ā°C with up to 1000 m altitude. See the product's 355 frame and cast-iron body for mechanical compatibility with standard drives.
Yes. The M3BC 355SMB 2 uses IMB3 mounting and a conventional 355 frame, aligning with ABB drive systems and common factory floor mounting patterns. The cast-iron frame and IP55 rating support reliable integration in conveyors, pumps, and general automation applications.
Key certifications include IP55 ingress protection, IC416 insulation class, and IMB3 IM1001 mounting compatibility. These align with typical industrial safety and reliability requirements, supporting use in dusty environments and ensuring stable performance across standard industrial systems.
The M3BC 355SMB 2 combines durable cast-iron construction with IP55 protection and robust insulation, reducing downtime and maintenance frequency. Its straightforward mounting and compatibility with ABB drives shorten commissioning times, while reliable operation lowers energy waste and extends service intervals, contributing to a favorable total cost of ownership.
