The motor delivers high energy efficiency with IE3 classification, reducing operating costs and heat generation in continuous duty environments. This translates to lower energy bills and cooler equipment rooms, which extends bearing life and reduces cooling demand in packaging lines and material handling systems. With an IP55 enclosure and a cast-iron frame, the motor is built for dusty, humid, and challenging factory floors, enabling reliable performance in metalworking, mining, and processing plants. The IC411 insulation class and dielectric system provide resilience against electrical stress, allowing operation at ambient temperatures up to 50 C and at altitudes up to 1000 meters with minimal derating. Ex-protection for hazardous locations (Gas Group IIC) and the Exec protection scheme support safe use in chemical and petrochemical environments, meeting stringent industry standards. The 6-pole, single-speed S1 duty specification ensures predictable torque and consistent performance in conveying and machining workloads, while the D-End top termination box simplifies wiring and service. A 160 frame size with 6209-2Z/C3 bearings offers robust mechanical support and smooth operation, reducing maintenance intervals and downtime in retrofit projects. Overall, the motor’s combination of rugged construction, safety features, and standardized mounting compatibility makes it an ideal candidate for industrial automation upgrades and high-uptime applications.

FAQs
Plan for a D-End top termination box location and a 160 frame, cast-iron housing to simplify wiring. Use the IMB5 IM3001 mounting class guidance, ensure alignment with a 6-pole, single-speed S1 duty, and verify ambient temperature up to 50 C and altitude up to 1000 m to prevent derating. Consider bearing access with 6209-2Z/C3 during routine maintenance.
IE3 classification delivers higher efficiency than standard designs, with full-load efficiency around 90.3% and near 91.0% at partial loads (75%). This translates to lower energy consumption, reduced waste heat, and smaller cooling requirements on conveyors and process lines, contributing to faster payback in modernization projects.
Yes. The motor features EX-Protection and Gas Group IIC protection, enabling safer operation in potentially explosive environments when installed per applicable standards and with proper wiring practices. This makes it suitable for chemical processing, petrochemical, and other hazardous-area applications where robust electrical protection is required.
The motor supports rotation in both directions and uses a D-End top termination box to simplify connection. With a 160 frame and IMB5/IM3001 mounting class, it fits standard ISO/IEC motor assemblies and retrofits, easing installation alongside existing gear and belts while keeping servicing straightforward.
Minimum order quantity is 1 piece, with unit pricing available in USD. The product origin is India, with Customs Tariff 85015230. It uses a 6-pole, 3-phase design with IE3 efficiency, IP55 enclosure, and IC411 insulation. Verify compatibility with existing control gear, wiring harnesses, and mounting rails to ensure a smooth retrofit.
