FAQs
ABB 3GBL162423-ADC supports IMB3/IM1001 mounting and is designed for D-End top terminator box placement, enabling straightforward integration onto standard base plates. It accommodates typical factory environments with IP55 protection and corrosion-resistant cast iron framing. Ensure mounting surface is level and allow 1000 m altitude and 40 °C ambient limits to maintain performance and reliability.
The motor delivers IE5 efficiency with significant energy savings across full and partial loads. Specifically, IE Class data indicates Full Load efficiency around 94.8%, with Partial Load at 75% roughly 94.9% and at 50% about 94.6%. This translates to lower energy consumption, cooler operation, and reduced cooling requirements in typical production cycles.
Yes. The motor is rated for up to 1000 m altitude and an ambient temperature of 40 °C, making it well-suited for moderately elevated facilities and hot environments. Its IP55 enclosure provides protection against dust and moisture, helping maintain performance and uptime in challenging industrial spaces.
Key certifications include IP55 enclosure protection, IC411 insulation class, and IE5 efficiency data. The build supports robust, standards-aligned operation in harsh environments. Additional safety and compliance considerations include WEEE categorization and sustainable reporting via the Environmental Product Declaration for Synchronous reluctance motors.
SynRM with IE5 efficiency drives lower energy costs and reduces cooling load, contributing to shorter payback periods in continuous-process environments. The durable cast iron frame and IMB3/IM1001 mounting minimize maintenance and downtime, while EcoSolutions and an available EPD support sustainability targets and regulatory audits, offering favorable total cost of ownership over motor life cycles.
