Exeb protection enables safe operation in hazardous areas, reducing risk and enabling direct-drive integration in chemical and oil & gas processes, which lowers external protection costs. IE5 efficiency translates to measurable energy savings at full and partial loads, lowering total cost of ownership in conveyors, pumps, and fans. IP55 enclosure and high-grade insulation (ICLF) ensure reliable performance in dusty or humid plants, minimizing unplanned downtime due to environmental ingress. IMB3/IM1001 mounting offers straightforward installation on standard plant bases, enabling rapid replacement of legacy units without structural changes. The 4-pole, 50 Hz, 380V design matches common industrial mains, improving compatibility with existing drives and reducing engineering time for gearbox or inverter selection. Built-in Ex protection and gas group IIC compliance support regulatory needs in mining, metal, and chemical sectors, while the cast iron frame and bearing assemblies (6313/C3, 6212/C3) contribute to long service life with lower maintenance.

FAQs
The motor uses IMB3/IM1001 mounting and a 225 frame size, with a cast iron enclosure suitable for floor-mounted or base-mounted installations in standard industrial spaces. This facilitates straightforward retrofits on existing foundations and compatibility with common inverter-driven drives.
Yes. The motor features Exeb explosion protection and IP55 enclosure, along with gas group IIC compliance, making it suitable for hazardous-area applications in chemical, oil & gas, and mining environments when properly installed per local regulations.
The motor is IE5 efficient, delivering full-load efficiency around 95.9%, with also high partial-load efficiency. This translates to meaningful energy savings in continuous-duty applications such as conveyors, pumps, and fans.
The motor carries IP55 protection and an insulation class of ICLF, designed for ambient temperatures up to 40 °C and elevations up to 1000 m. It remains robust in dusty, humid, or mildly corrosive environments common in industrial plants.
The unit uses durable bearings (6313/C3 and 6212/C3) and a cast-iron frame, providing extended service life with lower maintenance. The Ex protection and rugged mounting reduce downtime, while the 4-pole, 45 kW design supports reliable operation in demanding processes with minimal preventive maintenance.
