ABB 3GFT182732-SDB High Dynamic Motors - IP23
Part Number: 3GFT182732-SDB
Quick Summary
ABB 3GFT182732-SDB high dynamic performance motors are engineered for demanding industrial drives, such as conveyors and packaging lines. These motors deliver rapid torque response and consistent speed control essential for precise throughput. A common pain point is overheating and energy waste under heavy loads, which this design mitigates through robust insulation and efficient performance. The M3FT family builds on IP23 protection, IC LH insulation, and broadly compatible IEC-based standards to ensure safe operation in challenging environments. With a 380 V supply and 50 Hz operation, these motors integrate with standard plant power systems while meeting uptime targets. This combination supports lower total cost of ownership and easier procurement for automation projects.

Feature: High dynamic torque response enables rapid acceleration and precise speed control. Business Impact: This reduces cycle times on conveyors and packaging lines while maintaining tight process tolerances. Application: Ideal for bottleneck applications in automated material handling where timing is critical and process variability is high. Feature: Energy-efficient operation at full load across 50 Hz and 60 Hz. Business Impact: Lower energy consumption and reduced operating costs over the motor’s life. Application: Suitable for continuous-duty S9 operations in fans, pumps, and other plant machinery. Feature: Aluminum frame and 6314/C3 bearings provide a strong yet lighter construction. Business Impact: Improved heat dissipation, lower mounting stresses, and extended bearing life. Application: Favorable for installations where weight and vibration management matter, such as robotic arms and heavy conveyors. Feature: IP23 protection and IC LH insulation offer reliable protection in typical factory environments. Business Impact: Enhanced uptime and reduced risk of electrical faults in dusty or humid locations. Application: Well-suited for general plant floors and outdoor-adjacent installations with moderate exposure. Feature: Terminator box location N-End right side and compatible mounting options simplify installation. Business Impact: Faster commissioning, fewer field modifications, and straightforward integration with ABB drives for tuned performance. Application: Ideal for retrofit projects and new lines with standard IEC power distribution.

FAQs
Begin by confirming a 380 V supply and a four-pole configuration suitable for 50/60 Hz. Mount on the 180 frame, connect the terminator box at the N-End right side, and align with the driven equipment using standard couplings. Use a qualified VFD or soft starter to manage inrush and to protect the IC LH insulation during commissioning.
At 50 Hz, full-load efficiency is typically around 92.5–92.8%, with peak efficiency slightly higher at 60 Hz—about 93.1–93.4%. The four-pole design provides solid torque and stable speed control under S9 duty. Ensure correct drive settings and apply appropriate cooling to maintain reliability.
Yes. The motor's high dynamic response, four-pole configuration, and IP23 protection are well-suited for conveyors and packaging lines that require fast start-stop, precise positioning, and durable operation in factory environments. Pair with ABB drives for tuned control and energy savings. Its aluminum frame reduces installation weight, and the 6314/C3 bearing supports long life in high-cycle applications.
IP23 enclosure rating protects the motor in typical plant environments, while IC LH insulation supports safe operation at elevated temperatures. The IMB35 IM2001 frame class and 4-pole design meet common industrial standards for general-purpose automation equipment. Verify additional regional certifications (CE/UL) as required by your facility to ensure full regulatory compliance.
Energy efficiency at full load reduces operating costs, while robust bearings and engineering margins minimize downtime. Routine maintenance involves standard motor care: inspect alignment, check bearing play (6314/C3), and monitor cooling. By integrating with ABB drives, you can optimize torque curves and drive downtime, enhancing return on investment over the motor’s long service life.
