FAQs
Yes. The motor is specified for 500 V at 50 Hz with a Y (star) connection and supports standard industrial drive architectures. It uses IMB3 IM1001 mounting compatibility, which aligns with common baseplates and vibration-robust installations. The 4-pole design and 225 frame size simplify retrofits into existing motors-and-drives configurations, reducing downtime during replacement projects.
The motor delivers IE5 efficiency at full load, with an output of 45 kW and a 4-pole configuration. Full-load performance aligns with IEC standards for synchronous reluctance motors, and the motor maintains high efficiency across partial-load conditions (notably around 75% and 50%), supporting reduced energy consumption in variable torque applications.
Yes. The ABB 3GHL222227-AFC features Exeb hazardous-area protection and gas group IIC suitability, enabling safe operation in explosive atmospheres. With IP55 protection and robust mounting options, it’s well-suited for paint lines, chemical processing, and other challenging environments where safety and reliability are critical.
Key certifications include IE5 efficiency, Exeb explosion protection, IP55 enclosure, IC Class 411 insulation, and gas group IIC compatibility. The motor also carries typical industrial-compliance markers such as 4-pole, 45 kW rating, and 225 frame size, making it compatible with standard European and global drive systems.
Owners can expect lower energy costs due to IE5 efficiency, reduced maintenance from a robust cast-iron frame and bearing set, and fewer downtime events thanks to IP55 protection and Exeb safety features. The IMB3/IM1001 mounting and long bearing life contribute to predictable maintenance schedules and dependable long-term performance.
