IE5 efficiency translates to tangible operating-cost reductions on continuous-duty lines. Full-load efficiency at 100% is 96.4%, with strong partial-load performance at 75% (95.9%) and 50% (95.0%). This high efficiency reduces energy bills for drives in conveyors, mixers, and pumps across manufacturing and packaging environments. Exeb protection enables safe operation in hazardous areas, supporting compliance with ATEX/IECEx and reducing the need for additional protective enclosures. The motor is IIC gas group rated, simplifying installation in chemical, oil and gas processing plants while lowering lifecycle risk. IP55 enclosure shields critical components from dust and moisture, extending service intervals in dusty workshops and wet production lines. Cast Iron frame size 250 with IMB3/IM1001 mounting delivers durability and stable performance in vibration-heavy applications, reducing maintenance costs. The Delta (D) connection with 400 V 50 Hz drive compatibility optimizes control with standard VFDs, enabling smoother starts and longer life for heavy-duty conveyors and extrusion equipment. D-End top terminator box location supports accessible wiring and quicker field servicing, improving installation efficiency.

FAQs
This motor uses IMB3 IM1001 mounting with a D (Delta) connection configuration and a D-End top terminator box location, simplifying field wiring and installation. It is designed for 400 V, 50 Hz systems and supports standard VFDs used in automation lines such as packaging, processing, and material handling.
IE5 data indicates high efficiency across load points: Full load at 100% yields 96.4% efficiency, with 75% load at 95.9% and 50% load at 95.0%. This translates to substantial energy savings in continuous-duty drives such as conveyors and mixers, reducing operating costs over the motor’s lifetime.
Yes. The motor features Exeb protection for explosive atmospheres and IIC gas group suitability, IP55 enclosure, IC411 insulation class, and IE5 efficiency. It supports ATEX/IECEx compliance requirements, making it appropriate for chemical plants, oil and gas facilities, and other hazardous environments.
Key mechanicals include a Cast Iron frame (size 250), bearings 6315/C3 with NDE 6213/C3, and IMB3 IM1001 mounting. The Terminator Box is located at D-end top, aiding accessible wiring. Such specs promote vibration resistance and durable performance in heavy-load applications like extruders and metal-forming equipment.
The combination of Ex protection, IP55, IE5 efficiency, and robust IMB3/IM1001 mounting reduces downtime and maintenance costs. Its 90 kW rating, 4-pole design, and 400 V 50 Hz compatibility enable reliable, energy-efficient operation across packaging, processing, and mining lines, contributing to lower total cost of ownership and simpler spare-part strategies.
