FAQs
This motor uses a 315 frame in a cast-iron housing with a heavy-duty mounting footprint. Plan for appropriate lifting gear due to its 890 kg net weight, verify level mounting surfaces, and ensure proper alignment with driven equipment. Consider ventilation and clearance for service access to maximize reliability and minimize downtime.
Yes. It is designed for continuous S1 duty with 12 poles providing adequate starting torque for conveyors. The IP55 protection and IC411 insulation support long, maintenance-friendly operation in typical industrial environments, ensuring stable throughput and reduced equipment failures on long runs.
Key certifications and classifications include IP55 protection, IC411 insulation, and insulation class ICLF. The motor is built for harsh industrial environments and carries a WEEE category designation for large equipment; origin is Finland, aligning with ABB’s quality standards for global deployments.
With a net weight of 890 kg and a gross weight of 910 kg, installers should plan for crane or pallet-jack handling and secure rigging. The 315 frame size determines mounting footprint and coupling compatibility, so verify motor-to-shaft alignment and base dimensions before commissioning to avoid misalignment-related wear.
Best-use cases include heavy conveyors, metal-forming lines, and large packaging systems requiring continuous operation and high reliability. ROI benefits come from reduced downtime, longer bearing life, and compatibility with ABB control ecosystems, enabling streamlined maintenance and faster retrofits in established plants.
