IE5 SynRM efficiency dramatically reduces energy losses, boosting overall drive efficiency for continuous-duty applications. This translates into lower operating costs and cooler motor operation in conveyors, pumps, and fans across automated facilities. The higher efficiency also supports sustainability targets and can improve motor life by reducing thermal stress, enhancing reliability in high-cycle industrial environments. Robust IP55 protection and a cast-iron frame deliver durable performance in dusty, damp, and harsh workshop settings, reducing unplanned downtime and maintenance needs. With IC411 insulation and IMB3/IM1001 mounting, the motor tolerates misalignment and vibration while simplifying installation and service access, which lowers commissioning time and labor costs. The 690 V 50 Hz supply and Y-configuration compatibility streamline panel integration, enabling safer and more predictable motor control in multi-motor drives. The 4-pole design provides stable torque and predictable speed under common industrial loads, supporting precise motion control in packaging, material handling, and process automation. ABB EcoSolutions and an Environmental Product Declaration reinforce green procurement and regulatory compliance, helping buyers meet sustainability criteria without compromising performance.

FAQs
Plan for IMB3 IM1001 mounting and use the Y connection while wiring to a 690 V, 50 Hz supply. Verify frame size 160, cast-iron housing, and bearing protection (6309/C3 and 6209/C3). Ensure IP55 sealing and confirm alignment to minimize vibration during startup. Follow the datasheet torque and connection diagrams to reduce commissioning time and prevent motor damage.
Expect high efficiency at full and partial loads with IE5 Class performance, yielding lower energy consumption and improved thermal management. The motor delivers 7.5 kW output at 690 V with a 4-pole configuration suitable for conveyors, pumps, and fans. Real gains come from reduced running costs and better drive stability under variable load conditions.
Yes. The IP55 enclosure and cast-iron frame are designed for dusty and damp environments. IMB3/IM1001 mounting supports robust installation, while the IC411 insulation class provides reliable operation under typical plant temperatures up to 40 °C and altitude up to 1000 m. WEEE compliance also helps with sustainable site credentials.
IE5 SynRM motors are designed to minimize rotor losses and mechanical losses, delivering superior efficiency at a wide load range. This translates to lower energy usage, reduced heat generation, and longer service life in continuous-duty drives such as packaging lines, material handling, and process automation.
Operating limits include 690 V input at 50 Hz, 4-pole configuration, and ambient temperatures up to 40 °C with altitude up to 1000 m. The motor supports IP55 protection, IMB3/IM1001 mounting, and WEEE environmental compliance, making it suitable for deployment in mid-to-large industrial facilities with stringent environmental and maintenance requirements.
