FAQs
Yes. This motor supports typical variable frequency drives used in industrial plants. Verify voltage code D, IE2 efficiency, and IC411 insulation in your drive configuration, and align with standard ABB drive kits for a smooth integration and predictable performance.
The motor is an IE2 efficiency class device, offering noticeable energy savings over IE1 designs. Savings depend on load profiles and duty cycles, but users typically experience lower operating temperatures and reduced energy costs when operated with appropriate speed control and drive systems.
The data indicates Ex-protection considerations (Ex) and Gas Group IIC in the product context; however, confirm the exact hazardous-area rating with ABB for your specific variant and local codes. This ensures compliance and safe installation in your facility.
Bearings are 6210-2Z/C3 and 6209-2Z/C3 with a cast-iron frame. For longevity, implement regular alignment checks, bearing inspection, and periodic lubrication per standard IEC maintenance practices. The IP55 rating helps resist dust and moisture, reducing frequent ingress-related maintenance.
Ideal for continuous-duty applications such as pumps, conveyors, and fans, the 8-pole, 180 frame design provides stable speeds and robust performance. Coupled with energy efficiency (IE2) and a rugged cast-iron build, operators can expect lower energy costs, reduced downtime, and extended service life in demanding environments.
