High efficiency with IE5 performance translates to measurable energy savings in continuous-duty drives. The 75 kW synchronous reluctance design reduces rotor and stator losses, improving overall motor efficiency across load profiles. In applications such as pumps, fans, and compressors, this translates to lower electricity bills, reduced heat load, and longer service intervals when paired with appropriate drives. Real-world data suggests 3–5% energy cost reductions are achievable in typical manufacturing lines. Ex protection and hazardous location readiness allow safe operation where flammable atmospheres exist. With Exec protection and Gas Group IIC compatibility, the motor can be installed directly in zones that formerly required separate enclosures. The IP55 enclosure further guards against dust and water ingress, enhancing uptime. For compliance managers, the integrated hazardous-area rating reduces project risk and accelerates commissioning in refining, chemical, and mining environments. Durably built with a cast iron frame 315 and IMB5/IM3001 mounting, it provides rugged reliability and flexible installation. The D-End top terminator box location simplifies wiring in tight cabinets, cutting installation time. The bearing setup (6319/C3 with 6316/C3VL0241) contributes to long bearing life under S9 duty. IP55, IC411 insulation, and a 40 °C ambient rating support reliable operation at altitude up to 1000 m, while 4 poles and 380 V 50 Hz align with common industrial architectures, easing integration with drives and soft starters. Overall, ABB SynRM motors offer compatibility with IMB5 mounting and IM3001, enabling smoother integration with ABB drives and easier spare parts planning.

FAQs
Install should follow the IMB5/IM3001 mounting standard and use the D-End top terminator box for easy wiring. Confirm 380 V, 50 Hz supply and a 4-pole configuration, with IP55 protection and 40 °C ambient rating. Plan for up to 1000 m altitude and ensure space for service access and ventilation to maintain IE5 performance.
Yes. The motor features Ex protection with Exec designation and Gas Group IIC compatibility, making it suitable for zones with flammable atmospheres. It also carries IP55 ingress protection and an IP55 enclosure, supporting safe operation in many refinery, chemical, and mining environments. Confirm local ATEX/IECEx requirements and installation guidelines for your region.
IE5 efficiency reflects near-optimal energy use at full and partial loads, reducing energy consumption by a meaningful margin compared with IE4 equivalents. In a typical continuous-drive application, annual energy savings compound with each kW of rated power. Combine this with reduced heat generation and longer drive life for a compelling total cost of ownership improvement.
Ideal for heavy-duty pumping, air and gas handling fans, high-capacity compressors, and process lines requiring reliable, efficient drives. The 4-pole, 315-frame SynRM motor supports IMB5/IM3001 mounting and standard 380 V/50 Hz supply, easing integration with VFDs and soft starters. In mining, metals, and chemical processing, it delivers stable torque and reduced maintenance.
ROI depends on energy savings, reduced downtime, and extended bearing life. With IE5 efficiency and fewer moving parts, you typically see lower maintenance frequency and longer service intervals compared with older IE4 designs. Availability of replacement bearings (6319/C3, 6316/C3VL0241) and cast-iron frame supports predictable maintenance planning and parts stocking. This translates to faster start-up, higher plant throughput, and reduced overall cost.
