FAQs
This motor is designed for IMB3/IM1001 mounting and uses a 4-pole configuration with a D connection. For retrofit projects, ensure compatible mounting feet and shaft alignment, and verify cabinet space for the IMB3/IM1001 envelope. Pair with ABB drives for optimal control and smooth start-up in 50 Hz, 400 V systems.
The motor is IE5 certified, with full-load efficiency listed at 96.0% at 50 Hz, and near 95.9% at 75% load and 95.3% at 50% load. These figures support energy-usage forecasts for continuous-duty applications like conveyors and pumps and help meet corporate energy targets.
Yes. The motor features Ex eb protection and an IP55 enclosure with Gas Group IIC suitability, making it appropriate for hazardous-area applications such as chemical processing, oil and gas, and mining, while maintaining reliable operation in demanding ambient conditions up to 40 °C and 1000 m altitude.
Key certifications include IE5 efficiency, Exeb explosion protection, and IP55 ingress protection. It is designed to meet international standards for hazardous environments, and reports show manufacturing alignment with ABB EcoSolutions and environmental declarations for Synchronous Reluctance motors.
Thanks to IE5 efficiency and robust Exeb protection, you can expect reduced energy costs and lower heat load, translating to smaller cooling requirements and longer bearing life. The sealed bearing design and modular mounting reduce maintenance needs, while compatibility with ABB drives supports improved control and return-on-investment timelines.
