ABB M3GP 450LB 10 3-Phase Squirrel Cage Motor - IP55

IP55 protection, IC411 insulation, and a T3 temperature class with a 1000 m altitude rating protect this motor from dust, heat, and altitude-related derating. This translates to reduced maintenance intervals and lower spare-part costs in harsh environments. In conveyor and pump drives, the result is fewer unplanned stops and smoother operational performance. Cast iron frame construction and a 450 frame size deliver exceptional mechanical strength under heavy loads. The robust housing minimizes vibration and extends bearing life in demanding applications, which lowers total cost of ownership. In mining, cement, and heavy process industries, this translates to longer motor life and less frequent gearbox alignment checks. Ten-pole design provides high starting torque and stable low-speed control ideal for belt-driven conveyors and large-diameter fans. With S1 continuous duty and IE2 efficiency, it supports consistent, energy-efficient operation across varying loads. Installation with standard drives and compatible VFDs helps customers upgrade systems without redesigning electrical infrastructure. Ex-protection (Exec) and Gas Group IIC make this motor suitable for hazardous locations in chemical processing and petrochemical environments. The combination with IP55 and IC411 insulation helps safeguard personnel and equipment while maintaining compliance with safety standards. For OEMs, that means fewer risk-based changes and faster deployment. Bearing options 6326M/C3 and 6322/C3 with IMB3 IM1001 support easy maintenance and long service life. The product weighs 4250 kg net and 4290 kg gross, indicating a stable, heavy-duty machine that requires proper rigging during installation. Origin Finland (FI), minimum order quantity of 1 piece, and Customs Tariff 85015394 align with traceable procurement and predictable lead times.
