FAQs
The motor uses a standard 315 frame with a top-terminal box for simplified wiring. Its IMB5 IM3001 design and cast-iron frame support reliable installation on common baseplates, ensuring straightforward alignment with standard drive systems. Rotation is reversible, enabling flexible integration into existing equipment without extensive re-work.
This model operates at 370 V, 50 Hz, with a 4-pole configuration and an IE4 efficiency class. It is rated for S9 duty and features IC411 insulation. The motor is designed for single-speed operation and is suitable for continuous or intermittent heavy-duty application scenarios in industrial settings.
Yes. With IP55 protection, the M3BL 315LKA 4 provides dust and water ingress protection suitable for harsh environments. The IC411 insulation and robust cast-iron construction further enhance reliability in facility floors, outdoor installations, or dusty production lines.
IE4 efficiency reduces energy consumption during high-load periods, delivering lower electricity bills and faster payback in high-duty applications like conveyors and pumps. Combined with a durable mechanical design, it minimizes maintenance downtime and extends mean time between failures, improving overall return on investment.
Minimum order quantity is 1 piece, with standard stock available from Finland. The product is not marked as Made To Order, simplifying procurement cycles. The 315 frame, 370 V operation, and 50 Hz compatibility align with common regional electrical grids and industrial drive standards.
