High dynamic performance and a 4-pole design provide rapid torque response, enabling tighter control of speed and position in high-demand conveyors and machine tools. The result is reduced startup shocks, smoother operation, and greater line throughput. This makes it ideal for packaging lines, metalworking equipment, and automated assembly cells. Efficient operation across load profiles is supported by measured IE class data, with Full Load (100%) efficiency at 95.2%, Partial Load (75%) at 95.9%, and Partial Load (50%) at 96.5%, delivering lower energy costs and reliable performance during varying production demands. The IP23 enclosure, ambient 40 °C capability, and 1000 m altitude rating ensure robust protection in typical plant environments, while the ICLH insulation class and IMB3 IM1001 mounting promote dependable long-term operation. Crystal-clear compatibility with standard 640 V three-phase power and ABB control architectures reduces integration risk and minimizes downtime. Built to withstand harsh manufacturing floors, the bearing assembly (6330M/C3, NDE 6326M/C3VL0241) supports extended service intervals, smaller maintenance windows, and a lower total cost of ownership.

FAQs
This motor is designed for IMB3 IM1001 mounting with a D-End top terminator box, 400 frame, and bearings 6330M/C3, enabling straightforward retrofits into standard 400 mm frames. It supports 640 V three-phase systems and an IP23 enclosure, making it compatible with common inverters and control cabinets in environments up to 1000 m altitude and 40 °C ambient. The result is a smoother upgrade path with reduced wiring changes and faster commissioning.
IE Class data indicates Full Load (100%) efficiency of 95.2%, Partial Load (75%) of 95.9%, and Partial Load (50%) of 96.5%. This means energy efficiency remains high across load conditions, lowering running costs for conveyors, pumps, and metalworking equipment. The 4-pole design and 640 V rating also provide solid starting torque and stable speeds under varying production loads.
Yes. The IP23 protection rating guards against dust ingress and light splashes typical of manufacturing floors. It is rated for 640 V three-phase operation, and its ambient temperature and altitude specifications (up to 40 °C and 1000 m) make it suitable for a wide range of plant conditions while maintaining reliable performance.
The motor operates under S9 duty, suitable for continuous operation with intermittent heavy-load periods. Direction of rotation is both sides, offering flexibility for conveyors and equipment that require reversible operation. Mounting is compatible with IMB3 IM1001 standards, and a D-End top terminator box supports straightforward wiring and integration with ABB control systems.
Key reliability factors include the robust bearing set (6330M/C3 with NDE 6326M/C3VL0241) and the ICLH insulation class, which support longevity in harsh environments. The high efficiency across load profiles reduces energy costs, while standardized dimensions and Finland-origin manufacturing help ensure dependable supply and consistent procurement. Overall, ownership cost is lowered by fewer maintenance interventions and smoother integration with existing ABB drives.
