FAQs
Verify 500 V, 50 Hz supply and connect per Y configuration, align the frame 225 with IMB5/IM3001 mountings, ensure IP55 sealing, and torque the coupling to rated values. Install with D-End top orientation, with correct junction box access for maintenance and routine checks in hazardous areas.
IE5 efficiency is achieved at full-load, with measured performance around 95.5% under 100% load, and similarly high efficiency at 75% and 50% loads. This translates to lower energy consumption and cooler operation in continuous-duty drive cycles, supporting overall system efficiency.
Yes. It features Ex ec explosion protection and gas-group IIC compatibility, enabling safe operation in zones with explosive atmospheres and reducing the need for additional protective housings in many installations.
The motor uses a Frame 225 footprint with IMB5/IM3001 mounting, 500 V/50 Hz input, and a Y connection, aligning with ABB drive systems for seamless commissioning, standardized spares, and predictable procurement in large automation projects.
Minimum order quantity is 1 piece, with EcoSolutions alignment and an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) available. These facilitate green procurement, lifecycle assessment, and regulatory reporting for sustainability targets across process industries.
