FAQs
This motor uses IMB5 IM3001 mounting and a 280 frame, designed for straightforward retrofits and new builds. Ensure ducted or protected mounting space, verify 380 V supply at 50 Hz, and align connection configuration to D. Consider end-box location (D-End top) for wiring access and serviceability, and plan for proper cooling and ventilation in confined spaces.
IE5 denotes top-tier efficiency, with full-load efficiencies around 96.2% and solid partial-load performance (75% ~96.0%, 50% ~95.2%). In continuous operation, this translates to lower electricity consumption, reduced heat generation, and smaller cooling requirements, yielding measurable energy savings over the motor’s life in conveyors, pumps, and fans.
Yes. The motor features Ex protection (Exec) and gas group IIC, with an IP55 enclosure and IC class IE5 performance. This makes it suitable for hazardous zones in chemical plants, oil and gas facilities, and other environments where flammable atmospheres exist, while complying with industry safety standards.
Confirm frame size 280, cast-iron frame, bearing 6316/C3 with NDE 6316/C3VL241, and IMB5/IM3001 mounting. Electrical data includes 380 V input, 50 Hz frequency, 4-pole design, D configuration, and operating parameters like 45 kW output, IP55, and IC411 insulation. Verify altitude rating up to 1000 m and ambient temperature up to 40 °C to ensure derating is not necessary.
The combination of IE5 efficiency, robust IP55/IP-rated housing, and Ex protection reduces energy costs, downtime, and maintenance in hazardous environments. The durable cast-iron frame and IMB5/IM3001 compatibility simplify installation and spare-parts planning, contributing to faster returns on investment and lower life-cycle costs for automation upgrades.
