FAQs
Yes. The motor operates on 380 V three-phase supply and uses a standard 160 frame, aluminum enclosure with base mounting compatibility. It supports common ABB drive integration and comes with a robust 6312-2Z bearing and IMB35 IM2001 alignment, making retrofits straightforward in existing lines.
At 50 Hz, IE Class IE1 performance shows Full Load around 93.4% with 75% and 50% loads near 93.7% and 93.3% respectively. At 60 Hz, IE Class IE2 reflects Full Load around 93.7%, with 75% around 93.7% and 50% about 92.9%. These figures indicate efficient operation across typical industrial duty cycles.
Best suited for high-speed packaging lines, conveyors, and material-handling systems requiring precise motion control and rapid acceleration. Its 4-pole design and HDP (High Dynamic Performance) capability enable tight process tolerances, while the IP23 rating and insulation class support reliable indoor operation in moderate environments.
The motor features IP23 protection and insulation class ICLH, aligning with common industrial safety and reliability standards. It is built for operation at elevations up to 1000 m and ambient temperatures up to 40 °C, with robust bearing protection and a design suitable for S9 duty cycles in indoor facilities.
Upgrading to the M3FT 160B 4 yields lower maintenance due to durable aluminum frame, sealed bearings (6312-2Z), and a long-life IM class design, reducing downtime. Improved efficiency from IE1/IE2 data and easy integration with ABB drives shorten commissioning, delivering faster return on investment and lower total cost of ownership.
