Feature highlights the IE5 efficiency class paired with synchronous reluctance technology to deliver tangible energy savings in direct-drive and fan-pump applications. The 75 kW rating provides robust torque and reliable speed control across 50 Hz feeds, while the 500 V supply aligns with common industrial power distributions. By reducing copper losses and improving power factor, the motor lowers operating costs without compromising performance in demanding lines. Ex protection with Exeb certification enables safe operation in hazardous zones, supporting compliance with global safety standards. The IP55 enclosure guards against dust and moisture, reducing unplanned downtime due to environmental ingress. Together with IC411 insulation and cast-iron frame, the motor delivers durable service life in tough industrial environments such as food processing, chemical handling, and mining conveyors. The D-type connection and 4-pole design simplify wiring and control integration for variable-speed drives in automation cells. Frame size 280 and mounting classes IMB5/IM3001 are compatible with common ABB and OEM equipment, shortening installation time. Bearings 6316/C3 with robust VL design support long life and low maintenance intervals, while the IMB5 IM3001 mounting standard eases retrofits. The insulation class ICLF, altitude up to 1000 m, and IP55 rating fortify operation in diverse facilities, aligning with ABB EcoSolutions and sustainability goals. Installing the ABB 3GHL282232-BEC translates into lower total cost of ownership through energy efficiency, reliable performance, and easier compliance. It is well-suited for conveyors, pumps, fans, and other automation loads in heavy industry, with global support reducing downtime and accelerating ROI.

FAQs
When planning installation, verify a 500 V, 50 Hz supply and D connection as specified. Use the IMB5 IM3001 mounting options and frame size 280 to align with common automation equipment. Ensure IP55 enclosure integrity and Exeb protection are maintained through proper terminal connections and protective glands. Account for a 4-pole design and adequate lifting hardware due to the 697–717 kg package weight, enabling safe, efficient retrofits.
The ABB 3GHL282232-BEC incorporates Exeb protection and IP55 enclosure, enabling safe operation in hazardous zones with appropriate gas group classifications (IIC). This combination, along with rugged Cast Iron construction and IC411 insulation, supports compliant operation in environments like chemical processing or waste treatment where dust, moisture, and potential ignition sources are concerns.
Yes. The motor uses a D connection configuration with a 4-pole design and 500 V supply, making it compatible with common variable-frequency drives in industrial automation cells. Frame 280 and mounting options IMB5/IM3001 streamline integration with existing gearboxes, control panels, and conveyor drives, reducing wiring complexity and commissioning time while delivering precise speed control.
This motor targets multiple compliance areas: IE5 efficiency, Exeb explosion protection, IP55 ingress protection, IC411 insulation class, and IMB5/IM3001 mounting standards. It supports safe operation in hazardous and non-hazardous environments and aligns with global energy efficiency and safety requirements, aiding in regulatory submissions and asset lifecycle planning.
