FAQs
This motor uses a standard 160 frame with a cast-iron housing and IMB5 IM3001 mounting. It supports a D voltage code and 3-phase supply, with Direction of Rotation on both sides to accommodate different line configurations. Plan wiring to the Termination Box located at D-End top and verify alignment with IC411 insulation as well as IP55 enclosure requirements for your site.
IE3 efficiency is designed for reduced electrical losses under full-load conditions, contributing to lower energy costs. For this model, IEC data indicates Full Load (100%) efficiency around 87.3%, with similar partial-load performance at 75% and 50% loads (87.3% and 86.3% respectively). The 8-pole design also supports favorable torque characteristics and smooth startup in continuous-duty applications.
Yes, the product lists EX-Protection as Exec with Gas Group IIC, indicating an Ex-protected configuration suitable for certain hazardous areas. However, compliance depends on regional standards and the exact installation. Always confirm with your site’s regulatory requirements and ensure proper certification verification and installation practices are followed.
Key certifications include IE3 efficiency class, IP55 ingress protection, IC411 insulation, and ICFL insulation. Additional performance markers cover 8 poles, S1 continuous duty, and a robust cast-iron frame. These standards matter because they impact energy savings, enclosure integrity, insulation reliability, and compliance with safety and energy regulations across global installations.
The iron-frame construction, bearings such as 6209-2Z/C3, and IMB5 IM3001 framing contribute to long service life and predictable maintenance needs. ROI is driven by energy savings from IE3 efficiency, reduced downtime due to robust IP55 protection, and lower spare-parts costs due to standard mounting and widely available components. Plan for preventive maintenance to maximize bearing life and insulation integrity.
