FAQs
For installation, ensure the Terminator Box is located on top and that the motor is mounted in a stable, vibration-minimized base. Verify IP55 sealing and the IC411 insulation rating to withstand dust and damp environments. Consider ambient conditions up to 40 °C and elevations up to 1000 m, and confirm alignment with existing drive systems and wiring codes.
IE2 denotes a higher efficiency class for industrial motors, typically yielding noticeable energy savings over IE1 in continuous-duty (S1) operations. In this model, Full Load efficiency is around 93.5% (100%), with slight variance at partial loads (75% and 50%). The result is reduced electricity consumption, cooler operation, and a faster return on investment in pumps, fans, and conveyors.
The motor features EX-Protection (Exec) and Gas Group IIC ratings, indicating suitability for some hazardous environments when properly installed and commissioned per regional standards. Always verify local regulatory compliance and ensure installation adheres to site safety procedures and applicable explosion-protection guidelines.
Best suited for heavy-duty conveyors, large pumps, and process fans in industrial facilities. Thanks to IP55 protection, IC411 insulation, and a rugged 400 frame, it performs reliably in tough environments. The motor’s 8-pole design provides strong starting torque and steady torque delivery across a range of loads typical in manufacturing and material handling.
The cast-iron frame, robust bearings (6324/C3) and IMB5 IM3001 mounting class support long life and predictable maintenance cycles. Expect lower downtime due to sturdy construction and straightforward replacement of bearings, plus reduced energy losses from IE2 efficiency. Regular inspection of bearings and seals, alignment checks, and protection systems will optimize uptime and ROI.
