IE5 efficiency with Ex ec protection improves energy performance and safety compliance. This reduces energy costs on continuous-load equipment such as conveyors and pumps, improving total cost of ownership. Ideal for chemical, oil & gas, and mining facilities where hazardous-area operation is routine. 4-pole, 55 kW, 690 V operation delivers higher starting torque and stable speed control, enabling improved process control and reduced wear on gearboxes and drives. Suitable for heavy industry lines requiring precise speed regulation under variable loads, such as pumps and fans. IP55 enclosure, cast iron frame (280), and IMB3/IM1001 mounting simplify installation and durability. The D-End top terminal box and Y wiring enhance serviceability and minimize wiring errors during commissioning. Eco-conscious design and energy-efficient operation support sustainability reporting and regulatory compliance across plant sites. The product’s robust insulation (ICF L) and gas group IIC suitability help meet strict safety and environmental standards in hazardous environments. Designed for seamless integration with ABB drives and SynRM control strategies, it reduces project risk and accelerates commissioning while delivering reliable long-term performance.

FAQs
This motor uses IMB3 IM1001 mounting with a D-End top terminal box. It is configured for a Y (star) connection on 690 V, simplifying wiring and reducing voltage stress during startup. The combination supports straightforward alignment with common ABB drives and minimizes field modification requirements during retrofit projects.
Key specs include 55 kW output, 4 poles, 690 V input at 50 Hz, and IE5 efficiency. With IP55 protection and IC class insulation, the motor sustains reliable operation under typical industrial temperatures up to 40 °C and altitudes up to 1000 m, making it suitable for demanding process environments.
Ideal for hazardous environments in chemical processing, oil & gas, and mining where explosion protection and high efficiency matter. It supports drives and process lines requiring precise speed control, robust mounting, and long service life, such as conveyors, pumps, and fans in heavy industries.
The motor features EX ec explosion protection, IP55 protection, IE5 efficiency, and gas group IIC, along with IC insulation class. These attributes support regulatory compliance for hazardous-area operations and sustainability reporting, including an Environmental Product Declaration for SynRM motors.
IE5 efficiency lowers energy consumption over the motor’s life, while robust IMB3 mounting and a durable cast-iron frame reduce maintenance intervals and downtime. Combined with seamless ABB drive integration, this results in faster project delivery, lower total cost of ownership, and improved plant uptime.
