ABB 3GGP456540-BEG 3-Phase squirrel cage motor - IP55 IC411
Part Number: 3GGP456540-BEG
Quick Summary
ABB 3GGP456540-BEG 3-Phase squirrel cage motor delivers reliable drive power for heavy industrial fans and pumps. Engineers often struggle to source rugged, code-compliant motors that perform reliably in 40 °C ambient conditions and at up to 1000 m elevation while controlling total cost. This model provides IP55 protection, IC411 insulation class, and Ex protection for hazardous areas (Gas Group IIC), supporting safe operation and compliance. Coupled with a 450 mm cast-iron frame and 12-pole design, it integrates smoothly with ABB drive systems to maximize uptime, efficiency, and long-life performance.

Feature: 450 frame, cast-iron construction → Business Impact: Superior mechanical robustness reduces downtime and withstands harsh environments, lowering maintenance costs. Application: Heavy-duty conveyors and pumps in mining, metals processing, and chemical plants. Feature: IP55 protection and IC411 insulation → Business Impact: Enhanced ingress protection and insulation reliability enable operation in dusty, moist factory floors and at elevated ambient temperatures, supporting compliant installation in tough facilities. Application: Outdoor or semi-enclosed installations with aggressive particulates. Feature: 12-pole, 3-phase design → Business Impact: Lower speed with higher torque improves process control and reduces wear on belts and gears, delivering energy-efficient operation in fans and mills. Application: Continuous-duty S1 applications with steady torque needs. Feature: Ex protection (Gas Group IIC) → Business Impact: Safe operation in hazardous zones expands site applicability and reduces the need for multiple motor types. Application: Chemical, oil, and other hazardous area processes. Feature: 40 °C ambient, up to 1000 m altitude → Business Impact: Maintains performance and reliability in moderate-altitude environments, minimizing derating and spare-part complexity. Application: Industrial installations across regional facilities with similar climates. Feature: Bearing and IM class details (6326M/C3, 6322/C3; IMB5/IM3001) → Business Impact: Rigorous bearing geometry and mounting compatibility support longer life and easier alignment during installation. Application: OEM integrations and retrofit projects requiring precise mounting standards.

FAQs
This motor features a rugged cast-iron 450 frame with standard foot mounting and IMB5/IM3001 mounting compatibility, making it suitable for baseplates and vertical or horizontal orientations. It pairs with common ABB drive systems, simplifying retrofits and new installs while maintaining alignment with existing mount patterns and coupling standards.
Key specs include a 3-phase, 12-pole design with a 450 frame, ambient temperature tolerance up to 40 °C, altitude up to 1000 m, voltage code E, and continuous duty (S1). It also features IP55 protection, IC411 insulation, and Ex protection suitable for hazardous environments (Gas Group IIC), enabling safe operation in demanding facilities.
Yes. The ABB 3GGP456540-BEG is equipped with Ex protection and Gas Group IIC designation, enabling safe operation in hazardous areas such as chemical plants and oil & gas facilities. Its IP55 rating further protects against dust and water ingress, supporting reliable performance in challenging sites when installed per regulatory guidelines.
Core standards include IP55 ingress protection and IC411 insulation class, along with Ex protection for hazardous locations (Gas Group IIC). The design supports continuous operation in S1 duty and is built with a cast-iron frame and robust bearings (6326M/C3, 6322/C3) for long service life in industrial environments.
The 450 cast-iron frame and rugged bearings reduce maintenance frequency and downtime, improving uptime and total cost of ownership. When paired with ABB drives, you can optimize speed control and energy use, delivering measurable ROI through efficiency gains, longer service intervals, and improved process reliability across pumps, fans, and conveyors.
