FAQs
ABB 3GGL222223-BRC supports IMB5 and IM3001 mounting configurations, with a D-End top terminator box placement. This enables streamlined alignment in compact spaces and simplifies retrofit into existing lines. The 225 frame size, plus robust 6313/C3 bearings, ensures reliable operation under vibration and load typical of process and packaging applications.
The motor runs at 380 V with a 50 Hz supply, delivering 37 kW across four poles. It features a D connection, IP55 protection, and IE5 efficiency. Operating conditions include up to 1000 m altitude and ambient temperatures up to 40 °C, with IC411 insulation to maintain performance and reliability in challenging environments.
Yes. The motor is listed with Ex protection (Exec) and Gas Group IIC, designed for hazardous environments. This makes it appropriate for chemical plants, oil & gas facilities, and other zones where safety and regulatory compliance are critical, while maintaining efficiency and reliability in continuous operation.
Key certifications include IE5 efficiency, IP55 enclosure, Ex explosion protection, IC411 insulation, and a 4-pole, 37 kW rating at 380 V. The design supports harsh plant conditions, with a Finland origin and robust mounting options, making it suitable for industrial automation standards and compliance requirements.
The IE5 efficiency class yields meaningful energy savings, reducing daily operating costs. Robust mechanicals (cast iron frame, quality bearings) and a protective IP55 enclosure lower maintenance needs and downtime. In environments with heat, dust, or vibration, the motor’s durable design translates to a lower total cost of ownership over the motor’s lifespan.
