The IE5 energy efficiency rating of this synchronous reluctance motor translates to meaningful running-cost reductions for heavy-duty drives such as conveyors and pumps. The 315 kW, 4-pole design operates at 400 V and 50 Hz, delivering full-load efficiency around 97.2% and maintaining strong partial-load performance. Its straightforward D connection simplifies wiring to standard VFDs, enabling quick installation and stable torque across operating points. Ex ec certification with IIC gas-group readiness ensures safe operation in hazardous environments without excessive enclosure changes. By meeting explosion-protection requirements, the motor supports compliant commissioning in chemical plants, refineries, and offshore facilities, reducing design risk and the need for separate protective cabinets. This reliability translates to lower maintenance intervals and less plant downtime. IP55 protection shields the unit from dust and water ingress on challenging floors and outdoors. The 315 frame with IMB3/IM1001 mounting offers flexible installation across retrofit projects and new builds, while the 1000 m altitude and 40 °C ambient limits stay within the rated operating envelope. This combination simplifies site planning and spare-part provisioning. The SynRM construction minimizes torque ripple and improves drive efficiency compared with traditional induction motors, delivering smoother operation in high-precision processes. Compatibility with ABB drives and the D configuration supports seamless control integration, reducing commissioning time and enabling predictive maintenance through compatible motor-protective schemes. Dur able insulation (ICLF) and operating conditions (40 °C ambient, 1000 m altitude) ensure durability in challenging environments. The bearing set (6319/C3 and 6316/C3VL0241) and IM classes (IMB3/IM1001) support reliable long-term operation, minimizing unplanned maintenance. The motor is designed for 40 °C ambient and up to 1000 m altitude, broadening its application reach. From a business perspective, the combination of IE5 efficiency, enhanced safety, and low-maintenance design lowers total cost of ownership for critical processes. Real-world performance data—high efficiency across full and partial loads—helps justify procurement decisions and aligns with sustainability targets, ensuring reliable operation in demanding industries like chemicals, metals, and energy.
