ABB 3GGA222220-BDCIN Motor - IE2 Cast Iron IP55
Part Number: 3GGA222220-BDCIN
Quick Summary
ABB 3GGA222220-BDCIN is a 3-phase squirrel cage motor designed for demanding industrial drives. Operators struggle with downtime and rising energy costs when equipment isn’t built for harsh environments. This model provides IP55 protection, IC411 insulation, and IE2 efficiency, making it suitable for dusty, high-temperature plants. With a cast iron frame, 4-pole configuration, and non-sparking construction options for certain hazardous locations, it integrates easily with standard drives while helping reduce maintenance and energy bills. Sourced with India as the country of origin, it supports reliable supply chains and predictable lead times for procurement teams. Its design also supports scalable upgrades as plant loads grow.

Feature: IE2 efficiency with a 4-pole design yields lower running losses and cooler operation. Business impact: energy costs drop over the motor's life, improving total cost of ownership and reducing cooling requirements in the drive train. Application: ideal for general purpose conveyors, pumps, and fans in manufacturing lines where duty cycles are steady and reliability matters. Feature: IP55 enclosure and IC411 insulation provide robust protection against dust, water splash, and heat. Business impact: decreased downtime due to environmental ingress and longer motor life in challenging plants. Application: mining, cement, metal processing, and chemical units with dusty or humid atmospheres. Feature: Cast Iron frame with 225 frame size and robust bearings (6213-2Z/C3); Business impact: improved vibration damping and extended bearing life in high-load applications. Application: heavy-duty conveyors, mixers, and grinders. Feature: Non-sparking IE2 construction for hazardous location installations; Business impact: regulatory compliance and safety without sacrificing efficiency. Application: chemical, oil & gas, and other hazardous facilities requiring safe operation in Zone 1/II environments. Feature: D-End top termination box location and standard 225 frame facilitate quick installation and retrofits; Business impact: reduced commissioning time and easier wiring. Application: retrofit projects onto existing drives with minimal modification. Feature: Operation up to 1000 m altitude and 50 °C ambient; Business impact: ensures reliable performance in elevated plants and hot climates, reducing derating risk. Application: high-altitude or hot-plant environments. Feature: Gas Group IIC availability and Ex-protection options; Business impact: enables compliance with hazardous area standards and safer operation.

FAQs
For installation, ensure a compatible 3-phase supply with voltage code D and adequate cooling. The D-End top termination box simplifies wiring during retrofit or new builds. Verify ambient temperature does not exceed 50 °C and altitude remains under 1000 m, to maintain IE2 efficiency and IP55 protection without derating.
IE2 efficiency minimizes electrical losses, reducing running heat and energy costs over the motor’s life. IP55 protects against dust and water ingress, lowering downtime from environmental exposure. Together, they improve uptime, extend service intervals, and lower total cost of ownership in manufacturing lines and process plants.
Yes, the non-sparking IE2 cast iron configuration is designed for hazardous areas while maintaining high efficiency. When configured with appropriate Ex-protection options and Gas Group IIC compliance, it supports safer operation in chemical and petrochemical facilities with conservative maintenance and compliance overhead.
Key technical standings include IP55 protection, IC411 insulation class, and IE2 efficiency. The motor also supports hazardous-area considerations with non-sparking construction and gas-group classifications (IIC) where applicable, aligning with industry safety and performance expectations for industrial drives.
The combination of IE2 efficiency, robust cast-iron construction, and IP55 protection typically yields lower energy costs and reduced maintenance cycles. The motor’s durable bearings and high-temperature tolerance translate to longer maintenance intervals, improved uptime, and faster ROI in continuous-running applications like conveyors and pumps.
