FAQs
The motor uses a 160 frame with a D-End top terminator box location, which simplifies wiring and panel access during installation. It supports standard mounting patterns and aligns with typical base frames found in general industry, reducing retrofit complexity and enabling quicker commissioning in conveyors, pumps, and fans.
Key specs include a 2-pole design, IE2 efficiency, IP55 protection, and IC411 insulation. The 50 °C ambient limit and 1000 m altitude rating ensure reliable performance in hot, elevated facilities. The motor is designed for continuous (S1) duty with single-speed operation suitable for most general industrial drives.
This model features IP55 protection and an IC411 insulation class, providing good protection against dust and moisture and suitable insulation for many harsh plants. For true hazardous-area use, consult the manufacturer for Ex-rated variants, as the base unit carries non-sparking IE2 and cast iron robustness but not intrinsic safety by default.
With a cast iron frame and robust bearings (6209-2Z/C3), the motor is designed for long service life and reduced maintenance. Its high-temperature tolerance and durable enclosure minimize nuisance maintenance in hot environments, while standard bearing configurations simplify spare parts sourcing and long-term support.
The IE2 efficiency class reduces real energy consumption in continuous-duty applications such as pumps and fans, delivering measurable savings over the motor’s lifecycle. Coupled with its rugged build and easy installation, customers typically see faster payback on energy-efficiency projects and lower maintenance costs due to fewer unscheduled outages.
