Premium IE3 efficiency reduces energy consumption in heavy-duty operations, lowering total cost of ownership and matching modern sustainability targets for both new installations and retrofits. This motor delivers a measurable efficiency advantage in 50 Hz and 60 Hz systems, enabling quieter, cooler operation and extended bearing life in demanding environments. Dust ignition proof construction combined with Ex protection (gas group IIC) ensures safer operation in hazardous areas, reducing risk and potential shutdowns in cement, mining, and chemical processing facilities. The IP55 enclosure protects essential components from dust and water ingress, enhancing reliability at up to 1000 m altitude and in ambient temperatures up to 40 °C. IMB3/IM1001 mounting compatibility simplifies installation and service, while the 400 mm frame and 8-pole design provide a balanced combination of torque, speed, and footprint for space-constrained machines. With a robust cast iron frame and precision bearings (6324/C3, 6319/C3), maintenance intervals can be extended, improving uptime and reducing spare-part costs, making this motor a resilient choice for long-cycle operations and OEM projects.

FAQs
For IMB3/IM1001 mounting, ensure correct alignment with a frame size 400 footprint and top terminator box location. Use the 8-pole design and verify bearing clearance (6324/C3 and 6319/C3) during servicing. Plan for 1000 m altitude and 40 °C ambient limits, and check Ex-protection compliance for hazardous-area installations.
The motor operates at 500 V, 50 Hz, and delivers 400 kW with 8 poles. It features IE3 efficiency, IP55 enclosure, and an insulation class of ICLF. Connection configuration is D, with a duty cycle of S1, designed for hazardous environments with Ex protection and IIC gas group compatibility.
Yes. It is explicitly designed as a dust ignition proof motor with Ex protection (Exec) and Gas Group IIC rating, plus IP55 enclosure. These features support safe operation in facilities with combustible dust hazards, helping meet regulatory and safety requirements.
IE3 efficiency reduces energy losses at full load, translating to lower electricity bills over the motor’s life. The data shows high full-load efficiency (approximately 94.6% at 50 Hz), contributing to meaningful energy savings, especially in continuous-duty applications like pumps and fans typical in industrial plants.
The motor supports IMB3/IM1001 mounting and Top Terminator Box placement, simplifying integration into existing systems. Its frame size 400, 8 poles, and 500 V supply make it compatible with standard low-voltage drive systems, while the durable cast-iron frame and bearings support long-term reliability in demanding environments.
