ABB 3GFT282732-APB High dynamic motors - IP23 IE2
Part Number: 3GFT282732-APB
Quick Summary
ABB 3GFT282732-APB is a high-dynamic performance motor package designed for demanding industrial applications such as extrusion lines and high-speed conveyors. This design delivers precise torque control and reliable startup under load fluctuations, helping engineers minimize process variance and energy waste. The motor meets IP23 protection, IE2 efficiency, and IC LH insulation, supporting durable operation in typical factory environments. For procurement teams, the combination of a welded steel frame and a 4-pole design translates into longer service life and predictable maintenance cycles, while the 430 V operating voltage and standard 280 frame size simplify integration with existing drives. In short, it aligns with performance targets and total cost of ownership goals for modern automated lines.

High dynamic response and a sturdy 4-pole design deliver rapid torque and precise speed control, cutting cycle times and boosting process stability. With a 280 frame and welded steel construction, the motor tolerates demanding line layouts and heavy loads, reducing startup shock and wear on connected equipment. This directly lowers maintenance costs and extends service life in continuous operation scenarios. Energy efficiency is driven by IE2 class with measured Full Load 95.8% and higher at partial loads, delivering tangible operating cost savings over the motor’s lifecycle. The 430 V operating voltage and robust IP23 protection enable reliable performance in mixed ambient environments, while a straightforward wiring scheme and D-End top terminal box simplify installation in tight spaces. Installation and serviceability are further enhanced by the documented bearings and IM class, supporting predictable, long-term reliability for automated lines.

FAQs
For installation, align with the 280 frame size and ensure proper mounting in IMB3 IM1001 configurations. Use the D-End top terminal box to simplify wiring, and verify 430 V operation at 50/60 Hz. Check ambient temperature limits (up to 40 °C) and altitude (up to 1000 m) to maintain IE2 efficiency and prevent derating, especially in demanding facilities.
Prioritize the 4-pole design with a 280 frame, 430 V operating voltage, and IP23 protection. Reference IE2 efficiency with Full Load 95.8% and higher partial-load figures (75% and 50%). Consider the S9 duty rating for intermittent heavy loads, and note the bearing set (6322/C3 and 6316/C3VL0241) for maintenance planning and lifecycle cost estimation.
Yes, the M3FT motor is specified for environments up to 40 °C ambient and up to 1000 m altitude. To maintain efficiency and torque reliability, plan minor derating if conditions approach thermal or altitude limits and ensure proper cooling and enclosure provisions, especially when integrated with long cable runs or protective housings.
Key ratings include IP23 protection for outdoor/indoor exposure, IE2 efficiency class for energy savings, and IC LH insulation. The motor features a Finland origin and a robust welded steel frame. While CE marks are common, verify regional compliance requirements with your supplier and ensure integration with local electrical standards and motor control gear.
IE2 motors offer appreciable energy savings over time, reducing operating costs in continuous-duty lines. With bearings such as 6322/C3 and 6316/C3VL0241, expect longer service intervals when lubricants and seals are well maintained. The welded steel frame and robust construction support longer mean time between failures, contributing to a favorable total cost of ownership in automation projects.
