IE5 efficiency and SynRM design deliver tangible business impact: lower energy use across full and partial loads, reducing operating costs in continuous-duty drives. In applications such as pumps and fans, the motor maintains high efficiency at 100%, 75%, and 50% loads, translating to more predictable power draw and easier thermal management, even in variable-speed drive setups. Ex ec explosion protection extends safe operation in hazardous environments, a crucial factor for chemical, oil, and mining facilities. The integrated safety features minimize risk during startup and operation, while the 690 V, 50 Hz supply aligns with common industrial drives. IP55 enclosure and cast-iron frame provide protection against dust and moisture, reducing maintenance cycles in dirty or humid plants. The IMB5/IM3001 mounting compatibility enables straightforward retrofits into existing installations, keeping downtime to a minimum. Four-pole design at 75 kW with a 690 V supply, compatible frame 280, and Y configuration support reliable operation across varied process demands. Environmental declarations and ABB EcoSolutions reflect sustainable engineering, with an EPD covering synchronous reluctance motors and increased safety. This combination helps OEMs and end users improve uptime, compliance, and total cost of ownership in mission-critical systems.

FAQs
Plan for a direct-fit retrofit using IMB5/IM3001 mounting, 4-pole 690 V, Y connection, and IP55 enclosure. Verify frame size 280 with dimensions 1088 mm length, 762 mm height, 530 mm width, and a net weight of 697 kg (gross 717 kg). Ensure space for the terminal box at D-End top, check ambient limits of 40 °C and altitude up to 1000 m, and confirm cooling and ventilation provisions are adequate for steady operation.
Yes. The 3GGL282232-BUC features Ex ec explosion protection and is designed for hazardous-area applications. When installing, ensure compliance with local ATEX/IECEx requirements, provide proper enclosure protection, and follow recommended separation distances and wiring practices to maintain safe operation in Zone 1/Zone 2 environments.
IE5 efficiency data indicates Full Load (100%) efficiency around 96.0%, Partial Load (75%) about 96.1%, and Partial Load (50%) around 95.8%. The motor delivers 75 kW at 690 V and 50 Hz with stable efficiency across loads, supporting energy savings during varying process demands and enabling consistent thermal management.
The ABB 3GGL282232-BUC uses a 4-pole SynRM design with IP55 protection, a Cast Iron frame (280), and IMB5/IM3001 mounting compatibility, delivering reliable integration with existing drives and control cabinets. Its Y connection, 690 V operation, and 50 Hz standard align with common PLC/drive architectures, reducing integration risk and downtime in automation projects.
The IE5 efficiency and SynRM technology drive lower energy costs, while robust enclosure and bearings reduce maintenance cycles in harsh environments. The combination of high reliability, hazardous-area protection, and warranty-aligned availability lowers total cost of ownership and improves uptime for mission-critical systems in manufacturing and processing facilities.
