Feature: IE4 efficiency with full-load performance around 94.6% → Business Impact: noticeably lowers energy consumption and cooling requirements in continuous operation, reducing lifecycle costs and heat-related wear. Application: packaging lines, high-throughput conveyors, and process automation where precise torque and high efficiency are essential for throughput reliability; aligns with energy-lean initiatives in modern factories. Feature: IP55 protection and IC411 insulation → Business Impact: rugged operation in dusty, humid, and wash-down environments reduces maintenance cycles and protects critical windings from environmental stress. Application: manufacturing floors, dairy and beverage lines, and heavy industrial settings demanding durable electrical insulation and long service intervals. Feature: 4-pole, 160 frame, cast-iron construction with 6309-2Z/C3 bearings and IM class IMB5 IM3001 → Business Impact: high torque density and robust mechanical integrity for S9 duty, delivering reliable performance with extended bearing life and fewer unplanned outages. Application: heavy-duty conveyors, pumps, and fans where start-stop cycles are frequent and uptime is critical. Feature: 370 V operation with altitude tolerance up to 1000 m and ambient temperatures up to 40 C, plus a D-End top termination box and bidirectional rotation capability → Business Impact: consistent electrical margin across plant sites and flexible installation, enabling straightforward wiring and reversible drive configurations. Application: multi-site production facilities, retrofits, and lines that require easy reconfiguration without changing motor hardware. Feature: Stocked at Menden, Germany with MOQ 1 piece and references to the replaced product ID 3GBL162003-BSB; origin Finland FI; weight 174 kg net / 184 kg gross → Business Impact: reliable supply, shorter procurement cycles, and predictable logistics for OEMs and distributors. Application: equipment builders and distributors managing global supply chains.
