FAQs
Installation uses the IMB3/IM1001 mounting standard with a D-End top terminator location. Connect to a 3-phase 400 V, 50 Hz supply using the D configuration, and ensure the motor is aligned with the 681 mm length, 421 mm height, and 338 mm width footprint. The unit supports IMB3 mounting and is designed for straightforward retrofit into existing plant assemblies.
IE5 SynRM motors employ a synchronous reluctance design to minimize rotor losses and copper loss, delivering higher full-load efficiency around 93–94%. This translates to lower energy consumption, reduced cooling load, and improved overall system efficiency for continuous-duty applications such as conveyors and pumps, even under partial-load conditions.
Yes. The motor is IP55 protected, offering dust and water ingress protection suitable for dirty, humid, and harsh factory floors. Combined with IC411 insulation and a cast-iron frame, it maintains reliability and longevity in challenging environments typical of material handling and process automation.
This motor meets IE5 efficiency, IP55 protection, and IC411 insulation obligations, with a 4-pole configuration and IMB3/IM1001 mounting. Compliance with these standards supports energy-performance regulations, protects against environmental exposure, and ensures compatibility with common industrial installation practices—vital for audits, procurement approvals, and long-term maintenance planning.
Expected ROI stems from substantial energy savings due to IE5 efficiency, lower cooling requirements, and reduced downtime from robust IP55 and durable bearings. When integrated into existing lines like conveyors or pumps, the motor can achieve quicker payback in production environments with high duty cycles, contributing to lower total cost of ownership over the motor’s service life.
