FAQs
This model uses IMB5/IM3001 mounting and a cast-iron frame size 225, designed for robust alignment with ABB drive systems. Ensure space for the 879 mm depth and 435 mm width, and verify compatibility with Y-connection electrical setups at 400 V and 50 Hz. Quick-connect terminals and standardized mounting simplify retrofits into existing installations.
IE5 denotes the highest efficiency class for asynchronous and synchronous motors, delivering minimal losses at full and partial loads. For this motor, full-load efficiency is around 96.3% at 50 Hz, translating to measurable savings on annual energy consumption, reduced heat generation, and lower cooling requirements in continuous operation scenarios.
Yes. The motor features Ex ec protection and gas group IIC designation, along with an IP55 enclosure, making it suitable for hazardous environments. It is designed for reliable operation in expanding industrial processes where flammable or explosive atmospheres may be present, while maintaining compliance with relevant safety standards.
With a cast-iron frame, IMB5/IM3001 mounting, and robust bearings (6313/C3 and 6212/C3), the motor is built for durability and longer service intervals. Routine checks should include bearing lubrication per service intervals, insulation integrity testing, and monitoring of operating temperature (up to 40 °C ambient). The result is reduced downtime and predictable maintenance costs.
Minimum order quantity is 1 piece, and the product is listed as non-made-to-order. This simplifies procurement planning and reduces lead times for standard projects, while maintaining the option to scale to larger drives or multi-motor configurations as demand grows.
