Dust ignition proof construction and IP55 protection minimize dust ingress and corrosion, delivering safer operation in explosion-hazard zones. This reduces unplanned downtime and extends motor life in cement, mining, and chemical processing environments, while simplifying compliance audits. IE3 efficiency class delivers measurable energy savings across full-load and partial-load conditions, yielding lower life-cycle costs. In continuous operation at 50 Hz, the motor maintains near-rated efficiency per IE3 data (Full Load 94.6%, 75% 94.9%, 50% 94.6%), contributing to lower electricity bills. Robu st mechanical design with cast iron frame 450, IMB5/IM3001 mounting, and precise bearings (6326/C3, 6322/C3) ensures rugged performance and easy retrofit, aiding maintenance teams by matching existing footprints and reducing procurement complexity. Ex protection, Gas Group IIC, and IC411 insulation provide regulatory compliance for hazardous-area drives, while features such as D connection, 8 poles, and 500 V supply support flexible drives with plant-wide standardization. Operational limits of altitude up to 1000 m and ambient 40 °C ensure stable performance across sites, while top-access terminator box and IMB5/IM3001 mounting simplify service and installation.

FAQs
The 3GGP454520-BEK is designed for IMB5 IM3001 mounting on a 450 frame, with a Top Terminator Box Location and Cast Iron frame material. This combination streamlines retrofit projects by matching common motor mounting footprints, reducing modification work, and enabling straightforward alignment with existing drives and drive trains in mining, cement, or chemical plants.
At 50 Hz, the motor operates as IE3 and delivers Full Load efficiency around 94.6%, with 75% load efficiency at 94.9% and 50% load at 94.6%. These figures translate to meaningful energy savings across continuous operation and intermittent loads, supporting lower life-cycle costs in industrial drives and improved overall plant reliability.
Yes. The ABB 3GGP454520-BEK features Ex protection (Exec) and Gas Group IIC, IC411 insulation, plus IP55 enclosure protection, which together satisfy typical hazardous-area requirements. Its Dust Ignition Proof design, 8-pole 500 V, and 50 Hz operation enable safe, reliable drives in dusty or explosive atmospheres common in cement, mining, and chemical processing facilities.
The motor complies with IE3 efficiency standards, IP55 ingress protection, Ex-Protection for hazardous environments, and IC411 insulation. Additional qualifications include Gas Group IIC, Direction of Rotation configured for both sides, and harmonized mounting (IMB5 IM3001). Country of origin is Finland, with a 1000 m altitude rating and ambient up to 40 °C, supporting global deployment in regulated industrial settings.
Maintenance benefits come from a robust cast-iron frame, reliable bearings (6326/C3, 6322/C3), and top-access terminator box, which simplify servicing and reduce downtime. The IE3 efficiency improves energy consumption over the motor’s life, lowering operating costs. In regulated environments, the Ex protection and IP55 protection reduce ingress-related wear, contributing to longer service intervals and a faster return on investment when replacing older, less-efficient drives.
