FAQs
This motor features IP55 protection and IC411 insulation, designed to withstand dusty and moist industrial settings. The cast iron frame and IMB3 mounting add ruggedness, while a 40 °C ambient rating and 1000 m altitude capability expand its applicability. It is ideal for conveyors, pumps, and fans in metalworking and cement plants seeking reliable uptime.
The 315 frame size and IMB3 mounting provide universal fitment for standard drive systems. Its single-speed, 12-pole design offers predictable torque characteristics, enabling straightforward parameter matching with ABB drives and compatible third-party inverters. This simplifies installation, reduces commissioning time, and improves drive performance across mixed automation ecosystems.
Best suited for continuous-duty applications such as conveyors, pumps, fans, mixers, and other heavy equipment. Its robust IP55/IP-rated protection, 315 cast-iron frame, and IMB3 mounting enable reliable operation in harsh environments, while the 12-pole design supports steady performance across load ranges in process and packaging lines.
Key certifications and standards include IP55 protection, IC411 insulation class, IMB3 mounting classification, and IM1001 compatibility. The motor is designed for S1 continuous duty in challenging environments and is manufactured to support compliance and long service life in heavy industrial plants.
Thanks to the cast iron frame, robust bearings (6319/C3 and NDE 6316M/C3), and proven IMB3 mounting, maintenance intervals are extended and vibration-related wear is minimized. ABB service networks and clear specifications support proactive upkeep, spare parts availability, and lower total cost of ownership through increased uptime and predictable lifecycle costs.
