ABB 3GGA311230-ADCIN 3-Phase Squirrel Cage Motor - IP55
Part Number: 3GGA311230-ADCIN
Quick Summary
ABB 3GGA311230-ADCIN is a 3-phase squirrel cage motor designed for heavy-duty industrial fans and pumps. Engineers often confront reliability, cooling, and sealing challenges in harsh plants, especially with ambient temperatures up to 50 °C and limited maintenance windows. This motor meets IP55 protection, IE2 efficiency, IC411 insulation, and Ex-rated hazardous-area requirements, supporting safer operation and lower operating costs. With a rugged cast-iron frame, 315 frame size, 2-pole configuration, and reversible rotation, it integrates with standard ABB drives and spare-part ecosystems, delivering predictable uptime and streamlined procurement. Its robust build and familiar IEC design translate to lower total cost of ownership over the motor's long service life.

IP55 protection with a sealed enclosure minimizes ingress from washdowns and humidity, reducing maintenance and unplanned downtime. This directly improves equipment availability for continuous-process lines and batch operations, especially in dusty or splash-prone plants where reliability matters most. Applications include fans and pumps in chemical processing, mining, and metal refining where protection of the motor windings is critical. IE2 efficiency class delivers meaningful energy savings across typical load profiles. With full-load efficiency around 94.8% and partial-load figures near 93.8–94.8%, customers see lower energy bills and a smaller environmental footprint, which is essential for ongoing OPEX management in facilities running multiple motors or variable torque drives. Ex-protection for hazardous areas and Gas Group IIC compatibility supports compliance with safety standards in chemical plants and oil refineries, enabling safer operation in zones with flammable atmospheres. The motor’s heavy-duty 315-frame cast-iron construction and IC411 insulation contribute to longevity in high-temperature or rugged environments, reducing long-term replacement costs and downtime. Bearing performance is enhanced by 6316/C3 units and IMB3 IM1001 class design, delivering resilience against misalignment and vibration in continuous-duty operation. Reversible rotation and a D-End top terminator box simplify installation planning and wiring in existing line layouts, lowering installation risk and time. Installation compatibility with common ABB drives and control systems further streamlines integration, while the 972 kg net weight and 992 kg gross weight provide stability in demanding applications and predictable maintenance planning.

FAQs
For a 315-frame installation, use the D-End top terminator box and standard mounting feet aligned to the motor’s casting. Wiring should follow the IEC color code and the device’s voltage code D. The reversible rotation capability supports both pump and fan drives, simplifying layout changes. Ensure adequate clearance for cooling and inspect bearings during initial run-in for best performance.
This model is an IE2-efficiency motor with endorsed full-load efficiency around 94.8%. Partial-load performance remains high, typically 93.8–94.8% depending on torque conditions. The 2-pole design enables high-speed operation suitable for demanding fans and pumps, while maintaining reliable torque delivery in continuous-duty S1 applications.
Yes. The motor is Ex-rated with Gas Group IIC suitability, making it appropriate for hazardous environments such as chemical plants and oil refineries. This classification helps reduce the need for additional isolation measures and enables safer operation in zones with flammable atmospheres when installed according to local codes and standards.
Key protections include IP55 enclosure for dust and water ingress protection, and IC411 insulation with Temperature Class T3, supporting sustained operation up to 50 °C ambient. Altitude handling is rated to 1000 m, and the design uses cast-iron frame (315) with bearings 6316/C3, ensuring durability in harsh industrial environments.
The combination of IP55 sealing, Ex-rated safety, and IE2 efficiency reduces maintenance events and energy costs over the motor’s life. Cast-iron construction and robust bearings extend service life in rugged plants. The motor’s large mass provides stable vibration characteristics, while compatibility with standard ABB drives simplifies control, resulting in lower total cost of ownership and predictable lifecycle planning.
