Feature → Business Impact → Application: The 3GGL252212-BRC delivers IE5 efficiency at full load, reducing energy consumption up to several percent in continuous duty applications, which directly lowers operating costs in pumps and conveyors. This efficiency gain translates to lower cooling requirements and quieter operation, ideal for line-side installations where footprint and thermal management matter. Application-wise, the motor’s Ex protection (Exec) and IP55 enclosure enable safe operation in hazardous environments, supporting compliance in chemical, oil & gas, and processing facilities while maintaining uptime. Feature → Business Impact → Application: With IMB5/IM3001 mounting compatibility and a 250 frame size, installation is streamlined on existing machines, reducing commissioning time and minimizing retrofit risk. The 4-pole, 37 kW output provides reliable torque for heavy-load duties and belt-driven systems, improving process stability in packaging and material handling. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The robust Cast Iron frame, 1000 m altitude tolerance, and 40 °C ambient rating enable long service life in harsh environments, decreasing maintenance frequency and total cost of ownership. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The motor’s 380 V, 50 Hz operation with D connection configuration supports standard European industrial grids, ensuring straightforward integration with existing drives and soft-start controls, while its full-load and partial-load IE5 performance ensures consistent drive efficiency across duty cycles. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The SynRM technology provides smooth torque-ripple characteristics, reducing mechanical stress on conveyors and fans, extending bearing life (6315/C3) and IM class compatibility (IMB5/IM3001), which translates to lower maintenance costs and fewer unscheduled outages.

FAQs
This motor uses IMB5/IM3001 mounting with a 250 frame size. Ensure the D-End top terminator box is accessible, verify mounting clearances, and align with the 884 mm depth, 626 mm height, and 480 mm width. Confirm the availability of the D-end box location and proper shaft alignment to minimize vibration and wear.
The motor delivers 37 kW output at 380 V, 50 Hz, with 4 poles. It achieves IE5 efficiency and an IP55 enclosure, suitable for variable torque and constant torque loads in industrial drives, including pumps, fans, and conveyors.
Yes. It features EX protection (Exec) with Gas Group IIC and an IP55 enclosure, designed for hazardous areas. This combination supports safer operation, reduced ignition risks, and regulatory compliance in sensitive facilities.
IE5 SynRM motors reduce energy consumption, lowering cooling loads and operating temperatures. Fewer heat-related stresses extend bearing life, while smoother torque improves drive reliability and reduces maintenance on belts and couplings over the motor’s life.
Expected ROI comes from annual energy savings due to IE5 efficiency, reduced downtime from reliable Ex-protected operation, and lower maintenance costs thanks to robust cast-iron construction and improved torque control, especially in high-demand lines like packaging and material handling.
