Ex eb protection and IP55 enclosure provide class-leading safety for hazardous-area installations, enabling reliable operation in chemical, oil & gas, and mining environments while minimizing enclosure-related failure modes. This translates to safer commissioning, easier regulatory compliance, and reduced downtime during maintenance cycles. The IE5 efficiency rating directly lowers energy costs on continuous-duty S9 loads, yielding measurable ROI through energy savings and lower heat load on cooling systems in factory floors. The synchronous reluctance (SynRM) design delivers precise torque control with reduced copper losses, improving drive performance when paired with variable-speed drives and soft-start sequences in 3-phase, 690 V systems. Cast-iron frame and IMB5/IM3001 mounting deliver rigidity and vibration resistance in demanding production lines, while the IP55 rating supports outdoor and dusty environments without compromising performance. The Y connection, 690 V input, and 50 Hz operating profile enable straightforward integration with existing ABB drives and standard plant power, reducing installation time and risk. An Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) and ABB EcoSolutions alignment offer sustainability benefits and easier ESG reporting for OEMs and contractors.

FAQs
This motor uses a Y configuration at 690 V and 50 Hz, with a 4-pole design and IMB5/IM3001 mounting. It pairs well with standard ABB drives and soft-starter configurations, reducing wiring complexity and installation time. Ensure compatible cable sizing and starter protection, and verify the bearing and frame mounting alignment to avoid misalignment during commissioning.
The motor delivers 30 kW of output power at 690 V with a 4-pole configuration and an IE5 efficiency class. It is rated for S9 duty and 50 Hz operation, with an ambient temperature up to 40 °C and altitude up to 1000 m. This makes it suitable for continuous-load applications on demanding production lines while maintaining high efficiency.
Yes. The unit features Ex eb explosion protection and IP55 ingress protection, making it appropriate for hazardous environments. It is rated for Gas Group IIC and complies with industry requirements for safe operation in areas with flammable gases. Use is contingent on proper installation per the hazardous-location standards and site-specific protective measures.
Key standards include IP55 enclosure, Ex eb explosion protection, and IE5 efficiency. It also carries an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) for Synchronous reluctance motors, supporting ESG reporting. The Finland-origin design (FI) and ABB EcoSolutions alignment reinforce responsible manufacturing and material transparency throughout the product lifecycle.
With a brushless SynRM design and robust cast-iron frame, maintenance intervals are extended due to fewer wear components and low copper losses, contributing to a lower total cost of ownership. The IE5 efficiency reduces energy consumption, delivering faster payback in continuous-operating systems. Regular checks should focus on bearing condition, mounting integrity, and wiring torque to sustain peak performance.
