FAQs

This motor uses standard IMB3/IM1001 mounting options and a Y connection configuration. The D-End top terminator box location simplifies control wiring and cable management, reducing installation time. Compatible with typical 690 V, 50 Hz industrial power systems, it supports straightforward integration with existing drives and switchgear.
IE5 efficiency class reflects near-maximum electrical efficiency at full and partial loads, which translates to measurable energy savings over the motor’s life. The motor’s 97.1% full-load efficiency at 50 Hz contributes to lower operating costs in continuous duty (S9) applications such as pumps and conveyors, improving overall plant energy performance and reducing heat load in switchgear.
Yes. The motor is Ex-rated (EX) with gas group IIC protection, enabling safe operation in hazardous zones. It also features IP55 ingress protection and an insulation class of ICLF, aligning with industry standards for reliability in demanding environments and supporting compliance with process safety regulations.
Plan for bearing maintenance using the specified models 6319/C3 (bearing) and 6316/C3VL0241 (NDE) as baseline. The cast-iron frame and robust design support long service life, while IP55 protection and IMB3/IM1001 mounting simplify service access. Regular inspection of connectors and cooling paths is advised to maintain IE5 performance in 40 °C ambient conditions and up to 1000 m altitude.
The motor is rated for 50 Hz operation with a 690 V supply, 4 poles, and a 315 kW output, designed for S9 duty. It supports rotation in both directions, suitable for diverse drive systems, including pumps, fans, and mixers. The combination of stringent insulation, class IE5 efficiency, and hazardous-area protection ensures dependable operation across typical industrial cycles.
