IE5 efficiency delivers real business value: full-load efficiency reaches 95.9%, enabling lower energy costs for continuous drives and reduced cooling requirements. In practice this means longer equipment life and steadier process control for conveyors, pumps, and mixers while keeping drive temperatures within safe limits. The Exeb protection and IP55 enclosure extend service intervals in hazardous zones, improving operator safety and regulatory compliance for chemical, petrochemical, and metal-processing facilities. The Delta connection with D configuration and IMB5 IM3001 mounting reduces installation time and simplifies drive integration with existing inverters or soft starters, cutting commissioning risk and system downtime. A robust cast-iron frame, 4-pole design, and high-grade bearings support reliable operation under demanding ambient conditions, while the IC411 insulation class maintains performance across a 40 °C environment at up to 1,000 m altitude. This combination also aligns with ABB EcoSolutions and sustainability declarations for greener manufacturing.

FAQs
This motor uses Exeb protection for hazardous zones, IP55 enclosure, Delta (D) connection, and IMB5 IM3001 mounting. It fits standard ABB and third-party drives at 380 V, 50 Hz, with a frame size of 225. Use the D-End top terminator box, ensure proper cooling, and align mounting to minimize vibration during startup. Typical retrofits benefit from matching the IMB5 mounting footprint to existing motor bases and ensuring adequate clearance for service access.
IE5 efficiency yields near 95.9% full-load performance, reducing heat and electrical losses. For continuous-duty drives, this translates to lower energy bills, smaller cooling requirements, and extended component life. In applications like conveyors and pumps, the improved efficiency maintains stable torque at 50 Hz while enabling tighter process control and reduced carbon footprint.
Yes. The motor is specified for up to 1,000 m altitude and ambient temperatures up to 40 °C, making it suitable for many industrial sites with moderate elevation and heat load. IP55 protection and IC411 insulation ensure reliable operation in dusty or humid environments common in chemical processing, metals, and cement plants.
Key compliance attributes include IP55 enclosure, Exeb explosion protection for hazardous zones, gas group IIC, insulation class ICLF, IE5 efficiency, and IC411 insulation. The motor also carries WEEE considerations and ABB EcoSolutions endorsement, aligning with sustainability and environmental reporting requirements used in regulated industrial settings.
The robust cast-iron frame, 6313/C3 and 6212/C3 bearings, and IMB5 IM3001 mounting reduce maintenance frequency and downtime. IE5 efficiency lowers energy costs, while the rugged construction supports longer intervals between inspections. Combined with standardized components and Ex-protection, operators can expect lower total cost of ownership and more predictable maintenance planning.
