FAQs
Plan for a Y-connected 690 V 50 Hz supply with an IP55 Ex ec motor. Ensure hazardous-area compliance, account for frame size 250 and four-pole operation, and confirm IMB3/IM1001 mounting. Install at up to 1000 m altitude with ambient temperature limits around 40 °C to maintain performance and safety margins.
IE5 efficiency reduces energy consumption and heat generation across full and partial loads, lowering cooling requirements and utility bills. Over typical production cycles for pumps, fans, and conveyors, the annual energy savings contribute to a favorable ROI despite the higher upfront Ex ec motor cost.
Yes. It features Ex ec explosion protection, gas group IIC, and IP55 enclosure, enabling safe operation in oil & gas, chemical processing, and mining environments. The 690 V supply and robust insulation support reliable performance under demanding conditions while simplifying regulatory compliance.
The unit uses a cast-iron frame, 6315/C3 and 6213/C3 bearings, and IC411 insulation, providing durability and reduced downtime. With IMB3/IM1001 mounting and IP55 protection, it tolerates thermal cycling and environmental exposure, translating to longer service intervals and lower total cost of ownership in continuous automation applications.
Yes. The motor is designed for straightforward integration with ABB drive systems and fieldbus interfaces, enabling rapid commissioning and cohesive control of torque, speed, and protection. This compatibility supports shorter project timelines, easier retrofits, and reliable performance in complex industrial automation environments.
