IE5 SynRM technology delivers industry-leading efficiency, reducing energy consumption in continuous-duty applications such as conveyors and pumps. The business impact is lower running costs and cooler operation, which translates to longer motor life and reduced cooling requirements in demanding environments. The 11 kW, 4-pole motor is well-suited for material handling, fans, and process lines where precise torque and energy efficiency matter, helping plants meet sustainability targets without sacrificing performance. IP55 protection provides rugged enclosure integrity against dust and moisture, enabling reliable operation in dirty or outdoor environments and lowering enclosure-related retrofit needs. With a cast-iron frame and IMB35/IM2001 mounting, installation is straightforward and compatible with standard plant footprints, reducing commissioning time and risk. The Y connection simplifies wiring at 500 V, 50 Hz, improving start-up reliability and ensuring consistent performance across modular automation architectures. Altitude tolerance up to 1000 m and a 40 °C ambient limit support operation in a wide range of facilities, minimizing derating concerns. Bearings 6309-2Z/C3 and IC LF insulation enhance durability and reduce maintenance intervals, delivering a lower total cost of ownership. The motor’s duty class S9 and robust mechanical fit enable steady, long-term operation in non-stop manufacturing environments, while the IMB35/IM2001 mounting provides compatibility with ABB’s broader family of synchronous motors for scalable automation strategies. In summary, this motor delivers energy savings, reliable uptime, and installation-friendly integration for modern factories.
