FAQs
Yes. The motor uses a 160 frame size with a cast iron construction and IMB5 IM3001 mounting classification. It features a D-End top termination box for straightforward wiring and integrates with common NEMA/IEC mounting patterns, facilitating simple retrofits or new installations in existing line-ups.
The motor is rated IE3 efficient with Full Load efficiency around 91.9% and Partial Load figures near 92.1%. It has a voltage code of D, is rated for a 50 °C ambient, and supports IP55 protection with IC411 insulation, making it suitable for continuous duty in demanding environments.
Yes. The model includes EX protection and Gas Group IIC classification, aligning with requirements for hazardous locations. It is designed to operate within those safety standards while maintaining reliable performance at ambient up to 50 °C and up to 1000 m in altitude.
Install on a rigid, level base using the 160 frame footprint and IMB5 IM3001 compatibility. The 6209-2Z/C3 bearings provide reliability, while the D-End top terminal box simplifies cabling. Regular inspection of bearing play and enclosure integrity, along with appropriate cooling in high ambient conditions, helps sustain long service life.
The IE3 efficiency rating reduces energy consumption across duty cycles, directly lowering operating costs. The robust cast iron frame, IP55 protection, and IC411 insulation contribute to longer service life and reduced maintenance, translating to lower replacement and downtime costs for pumps, fans, and conveyors in industrial settings.
