ABB 3GBP359424-BDG 3-Phase Squirrel Cage Motor - IP55

Feature: IE2 high efficiency design reduces energy consumption in steady-state operation, delivering lower operating costs over the motor’s lifecycle. Business Impact: Significant energy savings translate to a shorter payback period and reduced CO2 footprint in pump, fan, and compressor applications. Application: Ideal for continuous-duty processes in water treatment, HVAC, and process industries where energy intensity is a major cost driver. Feature: Cast iron frame (Frame Size 355) provides mechanical rigidity and heat dissipation advantages. Business Impact: Longer service life, reduced vibration, and lower maintenance intervals, even under heavy-duty load variations. Application: Suitable for rugged environments such as mining conveyors and cement plants where reliability is critical. Feature: IP55 protection and IC411 insulation class offer reliable operation in dusty and elevated-temperature environments. Business Impact: Enhanced equipment uptime and safer operation in outdoor or plant-floor installations, minimizing unplanned downtime. Application: Weather-exposed drives, dusty production lines, and high-ambient-temperature areas. Feature: Two-speed motor capability enables operation at different speeds to match variable load profiles. Business Impact: Energy optimization and torque control improvements, reducing mechanical wear and electricity use during start/stop cycles. Application: Process control for pumps and fans where load varies with production demand. Feature: Top-entry terminator box location and top-mounted wiring access streamline installation and serviceability. Business Impact: Faster commissioning, simplified shutdowns for maintenance, and easier field wiring in tight spaces. Application: New installations and retrofit projects where installation time matters. Industry context: In modern automation, compatibility with standard control gear and VFDs, combined with robust bearings (6322/C3, 6316/C3) and IMB5 IM3001 mounting, supports scalable, cost-effective upgrades across facilities. This motor aligns with IE2 energy directives while delivering predictable performance in a wide altitude (up to 1000 m) and ambient temperature range (up to 40 °C).
