FAQs
This model features a robust cast iron frame (280) and a D-End top termination box, which simplifies wiring during installation. The 8-pole design supports stable torque, while the IP55 enclosure protects against dust and moisture. When retrofitting existing lines, verify frame mounting compatibility and confirm voltage code D for a seamless swap.
IE2 efficiency indicates a high level of energy performance for continuous duty. In practical terms, running at IE2 reduces input power at full-load operation, delivering lower operating costs over the motor’s life. For facilities with long run times, this translates into noticeable energy savings and a smaller carbon footprint.
Yes. The motor is Ex-protected (Exec) with Gas Group IIC rating and an IP55 enclosure, making it appropriate for hazardous areas where flammable or combustible atmospheres exist. It is designed to meet stringent safety and regulatory expectations for oil, gas, and chemical processing facilities.
Key mechanicals include a cast iron frame, 280 frame size, bearing 6316/C3, and IM class IMB5 IM3001. It operates at up to 50 °C ambient temperature and up to 1000 m altitude. For serviceability, the D-End top termination box location supports easier wiring and periodic maintenance without removing the motor from its mount.
Lifecycle value comes from energy savings due to IE2 efficiency, reduced maintenance with a robust cast iron frame, and minimized downtime from reliable IP55 protection and Ex compliance. For ROIs, compare annual energy consumption against your current drive, account for maintenance costs, and factor the reduced risk of hazardous-area incidents in your capital plan.
