FAQs
The 3GGL312212-BDC operates at 400 V and 50 Hz, featuring a D connection configuration and a robust IMB5/IM3001 mounting scheme. With a 315 frame and cast-iron construction, it fits standard industrial drive systems while offering reliable coupling to common V/f and vector drive controls. This ensures straightforward retrofit and minimal wiring complexity for upgrade projects.
IE5 efficiency is specified with Full Load (100%) at 96.5%, and Partial Loads at 75% and 50% show 96.4% and 95.6%, respectively. The motor is rated for S9 duty, indicating reliable continuous operation with periodic overload in demanding processes. These figures translate to meaningful energy savings in pumps, fans, and conveyors.
Yes. The motor features Ex ec protection and is associated with Gas Group IIC certification, enabling safe operation in hazardous locations. Its IP55 enclosure adds protection against dust and water ingress, supporting installation in challenging environments such as chemical plants and oil & gas facilities.
Key certifications include IE5 efficiency, IP55 enclosure, Ex ec protection, IC411 insulation class, and Gas Group IIC compliance. The motor uses a cast-iron frame (315) and IMB5/IM3001 mounting, with a 75 kW output at 400 V. These factors support regulatory compliance and compatibility with global procurement standards.
Energy savings from IE5 efficiency reduce operating costs in continuous-duty applications. The robust IP55/Ex ec protection lowers maintenance and downtime in hazardous environments, while standardized mounting and frame size simplify installation and retrofits. Long-term reliability and lower lifecycle costs align with sustainability programs and ABB EcoSolutions strategies.
