ABB 3GGP456520-BDG 3-Phase squirrel cage motor - IP55
Part Number: 3GGP456520-BDG
Quick Summary
ABB 3GGP456520-BDG 3-Phase squirrel cage motor is a rugged drive designed for continuous operation in industrial environments. Engineers often struggle with unprotected equipment, frequent downtime, and inadequate enclosures; this model mitigates those risks with a robust IP55 seal and a cast-iron frame built for harsh conditions. With IC411 insulation, Ex protection (Exec), and Gas Group IIC capabilities, it meets the demands of hazardous zones and dusty, humid plants. The motor also targets energy efficiency through IE2-class performance and a 12-pole design that delivers high torque at low speeds. Originating from Finland, ABB reliability supports long service life, predictable maintenance, and a lower total cost of ownership in heavy industries.

The 12-pole, 450 frame design delivers high starting torque and smooth torque curves, which translates to better control on conveyors and pumps while reducing motor wear and energy spikes in peak-load scenarios. The cast iron frame and bearing configuration (6326M/C3 with 6322/C3 NDE) provide exceptional durability in vibration-prone environments, cutting maintenance cycles and extending service life in heavy-duty drives. IP55 protection combined with IC411 insulation enables reliable operation in dusty, damp, and outdoor installations, lowering enclosure-related failures and enabling easier mounting in limited spaces. Ex protection (Exec) and Gas Group IIC ratings address hazardous-area compliance, allowing safe operation in chemical processing, petrochemical, and related facilities. IE2 efficiency, continuous S1 duty, and voltage code D support energy savings, improved uptime, and straightforward integration with standard VFDs. The solid frame material and robust bearings also reduce resonance, enabling quieter operation and lower life-cycle costs for large-scale applications such as mills and extruders. With a non-make-to-order design and a 1-piece minimum, procurement and stocking are simplified for OEMs and engineers, improving project timelines and total cost of ownership.
