High-efficiency IE3 performance for 560 kW at 500 V reduces energy costs and heat generation, translating into measurable lifecycle savings for continuous-duty applications such as conveyors and pumps. The 95.8% full-load efficiency rating (50 Hz) ensures consistent torque delivery and resilient operation under varying load profiles. Dust ignition proof design combined with IP55 protection minimizes ignition risk and protects internal components in dusty facilities, helping plants meet safety and reliability targets for cement, mining, and grain-handling operations. The cast iron frame and robust bearings (6324/C3, 6319/C3) provide enduring mechanical strength, reducing maintenance cycles and unexpected downtime in harsh environments. IMB3/IM1001 mounting compatibility simplifies retrofits and new installations alike, while the D connection and top-terminated box accelerate wiring and commissioning during plant expansions. The motor’s operating envelope—50 Hz, 500 V, altitude up to 1000 m, ambient up to 40 °C—supports diverse site conditions without compromising performance. Overall, this design minimizes vibration, enhances service life, and aligns with industry standards for hazardous-area considerations (Gas Group IIC, Ex protection).

FAQs
Plan for a 500 V, 50 Hz supply with a D connection configuration and top termination box to simplify wiring. Ensure the mounting footprint aligns with IMB3 IM1001 standards and frame size 400. Check ambient conditions up to 40 °C and altitude up to 1000 m, and verify IP55 protection aligns with the facility’s dust exposure.
IE3 efficiency delivers higher full-load performance, with reported full-load efficiency around 95.8% at 50 Hz. This reduces resistive losses, lowers cooling load, and minimizes energy bills for continuous-duty applications like conveyors and pumps in process industries.
The motor features Ex protection and a Gas Group IIC designation, indicating suitability for certain hazardous environments when installed per local codes. It also offers a dust-ignition-proof design with IP55 enclosure to handle dusty facilities—always confirm site-specific compliance with local regulations and safety standards.
With IMB3 IM1001 mounting and a Top Terminator Box, the 3GGP403840-AEK supports straightforward installation and simpler maintenance. The 6-pole, 400 frame, and D connection configuration enable reliable integration into standard plant layouts, reducing retrofit costs and downtime during upgrades or expansions.
Energy efficiency reduces operating costs over the motor’s life, while robust cast-iron construction and premium bearings extend intervals between maintenance. The motor’s rugged design, combined with reliable mounting and wiring, minimizes unplanned downtime, contributing to lower maintenance labor costs and a lower total cost of ownership in demanding industrial settings.
