The 75 kW synchronous reluctance motor delivers high IE5 efficiency, reducing energy consumption during continuous operation and lowering life-cycle costs in pumping, fans, and conveyors. The SynRM design improves torque density and reduces copper losses, enabling smaller drive systems without sacrificing performance. With IP55 protection and Ex ec classification, the unit is protected against dust, water spray, and hazardous locations, which translates to lower maintenance downtime in chemical processing, mining, and heavy industries. The frame 280 and cast-iron construction provide exceptional stiffness and resilience in demanding environments, supporting IMB5/IM3001 mounting for quick, vibration-tolerant installations. A D-connection configuration and 380 V/50 Hz supply simplify panel integration, while the operating voltage of 350 V and 1000 m altitude tolerance expand site compatibility. Designed for reliability, this motor minimizes unexpected outages and supports compliant, long-life drive trains across mining, processing, and manufacturing facilities.

FAQs
For a smooth install, plan D-connection wiring and ensure panel space accommodates a 280 frame with IMB5 mounting. The terminator box location is at the D-End top, which simplifies cabling runs. Use a 380 V, 50 Hz supply with adequate cooling for ambient up to 40 °C and consider the 1000 m altitude rating. Proper alignment and bearing preload for the 6316/C3 bearings will minimize vibration and extend bearing life.
Key specs include 75 kW output, 380 V input, 50 Hz frequency, 4-pole design, and IP55 enclosure. The motor operates at 350 V nominal with an operating frequency sw of 40.000 Hz. It uses Ex protection and IEC IC Class ICF insulation, designed for a 40 °C ambient and up to 1000 m altitude. Connection is D, with a maximum torque reserve suitable for S9 duty cycles.
Yes. The ABB 3GGL282232-BRC features Ex protection (Exec) and an IP55 enclosure, making it appropriate for hazardous locations and dusty, wet industrial environments. Its SynRM construction also helps reduce heat and maintain stable performance in continuous duty applications such as pumps, fans, and material handling in chemical and mining industries.
Applications with long run times and variable load profiles—pumps, fans, conveyors, and compressors—benefit most from IE5 SynRM efficiency, reducing energy costs and heat generation. The robust 280 frame and cast-iron construction support demanding installations in process plants, while IMB5/IM3001 mounting ensures compatibility with common automation platforms.
The SynRM design lowers copper losses and reduces thermal stress, contributing to longer service intervals and lower maintenance costs. Combined with Ex protection and IP55, operators can expect higher uptime in harsh environments. ROI improves through energy savings at IE5 efficiency, reduced cooling requirements, and extended bearing life from stable, rugged construction.
