IE3 efficiency class significantly lowers energy consumption during continuous operation, reducing total cost of ownership for conveyors and pumps; the business impact is tangible energy savings and improved sustainability, especially in high-load processes. IP55 protection provides robust dust and moisture resistance, enabling longer uptime in wash-down and dusty environments, ideal for packaging lines and process equipment. IC411 insulation supports operation at ambient temperatures up to 40 °C and altitude up to 1000 m, ensuring reliable performance in varied plant locations without derating. The cast-iron frame (5800) with bearings 6317M/C3 delivers durability and low maintenance, translating to reduced spare-part inventories and longer intervals between service. IMB3/IM1001 mounting compatibility and D-End top termination simplify retrofits and new installations, lowering installation costs and minimizing commissioning time. The S1 continuous-duty, 2-pole design provides steady torque and fast motor response for demanding drives, while the standard 1-piece MOQ and Finland-origin manufacturing support consistent supply and quality. This combination addresses common objections about reliability, compliance, and lifecycle cost in industrial motor purchases.

FAQs
Yes. The motor is designed for IMB3 IM1001 mounting compatibility with a D-End top terminator box, enabling straightforward replacement of legacy 3BN/M3BN configurations. Its cast-iron frame (5800) and 2-pole design fit common industrial footprints, reducing retrofit risk. Check alignment on a like-for-like frame size and verify bearing and shaft dimensions before swap to ensure a seamless installation and minimal downtime.
The motor delivers IE3 efficiency with Full Load (100%) at 95.8%, and 75% and 50% loads at 95.3% and 94.2% respectively. It carries IP55 ingress protection and IC411 insulation, ensuring durability against dust, moisture, and elevated ambient temperatures. These ratings support energy savings and reliability in harsh industrial environments.
Industries like packaging, material handling, and process automation benefit the most, especially where conveyors and pumps operate under continuous or intermittent heavy loads. The 2-pole design provides strong starting torque, while S1 duty suits steady, long-run operation. Its rugged frame and protective features make it well-suited for high-capacity lines and demanding plant layouts.
Key certifications and compliance points include IE3 efficiency, IP55 protection, and IC411 insulation. The unit is manufactured in Finland (FI) with a listed Customs Tariff Number 85015381 and UNSPSC 26101100. These details support global procurement, traceability, and regulatory alignment across multinational facilities.
The robust cast-iron frame and bearings (6317M/C3) reduce wear and maintenance frequency, while high IE3 efficiency lowers energy costs. The D-End top termination and IM mounting options speed installation and retrofits, cutting commissioning time. Overall, customers can expect improved uptime, lower energy bills, and a streamlined supply chain due to standardization and available spare parts.
