FAQs
Begin with verifying the terminal box location (D-End top) and ensure the motor is correctly oriented for airflow and cooling. Confirm the 355 frame size, 8-pole configuration, and that the connection wires meet the Voltage Code D. Use protective conduit and install per IC safety guidelines; ensure IP55 seals are intact to maintain enclosure integrity.
The motor delivers IE2 efficiency, with Full Load efficiency around 93.5%, providing strong torque at lower speeds typical of 8-pole machines. The 8-pole design yields lower synchronous speed and stable torque suitable for conveyors, fans, and process motors, reducing energy use while maintaining reliable start-up behavior in continuous service.
Yes, it is designed for hazardous environments with EX protection and Gas Group IIC. It also carries IP55 ingress protection and IC411 insulation class, supporting safe operation in dusty or flammable atmospheres. Always verify local regulatory requirements and ensure proper installation clearances and protective metal gaskets are used.
Key certifications include IP55 protection, IE2 efficiency rating, IC411 insulation class, and EX protection for hazardous zones. The unit also aligns with industrial standards for cast-iron frame motors and is suitable for high-temperature ambients up to 50 °C and altitudes up to 1000 m, supporting robust, compliant operation.
ROI is enhanced by IE2 energy savings during continuous operation, reduced maintenance from a rugged cast-iron frame and long-life bearings, and lower downtime due to IP55 protection and EX safeguards. While initial weight and installation considerations exist, the motor’s durability and compatibility with ABB drives help lower lifecycle costs over the asset’s service life.
