Feature → Business Impact → Application: The 3GGP403520-BEK delivers IE3 energy efficiency in a 450 kW, 6-pole configuration, which reduces running costs in continuous S1 duty and improves overall plant energy management. This directly translates to measurable energy savings on high-load duties and lowers CO2 footprint for heavy industry processes, such as cement, mining, and chemical handling. Application-wise, it suits hazardous areas requiring dust ignition protection while maintaining reliable uptime in dusty environments. Feature → Business Impact → Application: With IP55 protection and a robust cast iron frame (Frame Size 400), the motor resists dust ingress and mechanical wear, lowering maintenance frequency and extending bearing life in challenging plants. This is ideal for long-life installation in material handling and processing lines where access is limited and servicing windows are constrained. Feature → Business Impact → Application: IMB5/IM3001 mounting compatibility and a top terminator box streamline installation, reduce downtime, and simplify retrofits into existing systems, including those using standard 500 V, 50 Hz power. Application areas include process lines, conveyors, and pumps in hazardous locations, where quick commissioning and reliable electrical connections matter. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Explosion protection (Ex) with Gas Group IIC compliance combined with insulation (ICLF) and insulation class data supports regulatory conformity and safer operation, helping to pass audits and minimize risk during outages. Application contexts span cement plants, mining operations, and chemical facilities requiring robust safety credentials and proven performance over a wide ambient temperature range. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Six-pole, 3GGP IE3 motor supports steady torque and predictable speed control in demanding processes, enabling precise control loops and reduced mechanical wear in mixers, grinders, and crushers. This aligns with industry best practices for energy stewardship and uptime optimization.

FAQs
The motor is designed for a 500 V, 50 Hz U_in supply and uses a D connection configuration, with a 6-pole, 450 kW rating. It supports typical industrial distribution; ensure your switching gear and protective relays are rated for hazardous environments and that mounting conforms to IMB5/IM3001 standards for reliable operation.
Key specs include 450 kW output, 6 poles, frame size 400, IP55 enclosure, IC411 insulation, and IE3 efficiency. It’s a single-speed S1 duty rated motor with 500 V and 50 Hz, designed for continuous operation in dusty or hazardous settings while delivering consistent full-load efficiency around 95.8%.
Yes. The 3GGP403520-BEK features Ex protection (Exec), Gas Group IIC, and an IP55 enclosure, making it appropriate for hazardous locations with dusty atmospheres. It also matches IMB5/IM3001 mounting for secure integration into safety-certified installations and supports regulatory compliance in heavy-duty industrial environments.
Plan for frame size 400, cast iron construction, and IMB5/IM3001 mounting compatibility. The terminator box is located on top, and the motor is designed for 1000 m altitude with a 40 °C ambient limit. The connection is D-type, and the motor is built for reliable operation at 500 V, 50 Hz with IP55 protection to simplify installation in dusty plants.
Energy efficiency from IE3 reduces running costs on continuous processes, while IP55 and robust bearings extend service intervals and cut maintenance frequency. The dust ignition proof design minimizes unscheduled shutdowns in dusty facilities, delivering a favorable ROI through lower energy use, reduced downtime, and improved safety compliance in cement, mining, and chemical plants.
