The IE5 SynRM design lowers energy consumption, translating to meaningful operating-cost reductions for continuous drives such as conveyors and pumps, while maintaining precise speed control. In real-world lines, that efficiency translates into steady throughput and heat reduction, enabling longer maintenance intervals and reduced cooling requirements. The 11 kW, 690 V configuration with a 4-pole arrangement provides robust torque characteristics suitable for demanding loads in manufacturing and processing environments. The IP55 enclosure and IC411 insulation protect inner components from dust, moisture, and thermal stress, sustaining uptime in harsh plants. Cast iron frame 160 with IMB3/IM1001 mounting simplifies installation and retrofit projects, supporting rapid commissioning and predictable service life. The Y connection and standard mounting compatibility minimize wiring and alignment challenges, making it easier to standardize drives across multiple lines. ABB EcoSolutions and the Environmental Product Declaration add value for sustainability reporting and supplier compliance in regulated industries.

FAQs
This motor is designed for 3-phase operation at 690 V, 50 Hz with a Y (star) connection configuration. It uses IMB3/IM1001 mounting for robust alignment and straightforward installation on standard frame 160. The unit features a 4-pole design and a cast-iron frame, enabling reliable mounting in a variety of industrial environments while maintaining IP55 protection against dust and splash.
The motor is designed for high efficiency (IE5). At 50 Hz, full-load efficiency is approximately 93.4%, with marginally higher values around 93.7% under partial-load (75%) conditions. This performance translates to lower energy consumption across typical plant cycles and contributes to a lower total cost of ownership in continuous or mixed-load applications.
Yes. The motor carries IP55 protection and an IC411 insulation class, making it suitable for environments with dust and moisture exposure. Its cast-iron frame and robust bearings (6309/C3) provide durability in demanding applications such as conveyors, pumps, and fans within factory floors or semi-outdoor installations.
The motor includes an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) for synchronous reluctance motors, aligning with sustainability reporting needs. It also features IP55 and IC411 ratings and participates in ABB EcoSolutions programs. The buildup of responsible materials and lifecycle considerations supports compliance with environmental and circular-economy initiatives in regulated industries.
The combination of high efficiency, durable cast-iron construction, and robust mounting reduces energy costs and downtime, contributing to a favorable ROI. Maintenance intervals improve due to reliable bearings and protective enclosure, while the standardized IMB3/IM1001 mounting and 11 kW performance support consistent performance across multiple lines, simplifying procurement, spare parts management, and long-term ownership.
