FAQs
Install using a 3-phase 690 V, 50 Hz supply with a Y connection configuration. The motor is 4-pole, frame 315, and is designed for IMB3/IM1001 mounting on a cast-iron housing. Use the D-End top terminator box location for convenient cable entry, and ensure ambient temperature stays within 40 °C and altitude under 1000 m. Verify Ex eb protection and IP55 integrity before energizing. Confirm drive compatibility with ABB controls and ensure proper torque and soft-start sequencing to maximize IE5 efficiency.
IE5 efficiency indicates peak motor efficiency under full and partial load conditions. For this motor, Full Load efficiency is about 96.4%, with 96.3% at 75% load and 95.7% at 50% load. In continuous operation, these figures translate to lower shaft losses, reduced energy consumption, and meaningful lifecycle cost reductions, especially when paired with ABB drives that optimize speed and torque during varying load profiles.
Yes. The motor features Ex eb protection and an IP55 enclosure, designed for hazardous areas with gas group IIC classifications. This combination provides intrinsic safety against electrical sparks and dust ingress while maintaining reliable performance in demanding environments such as chemical plants or mining sites. Compliance with IEC standards and robust insulation (ICLF) further supports safe operation and regulatory confidence.
The motor supports IE5 efficiency, Ex eb protection, IP55 enclosure, and IC LF insulation. It uses IMB3/IM1001 mounting and provides WEEE Category 4 large equipment status with an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) for Synchronous reluctance motors. Its origin is Finland, tariff code 85015290, and it carries ABB EcoSolutions branding, aligning with sustainability and regulatory reporting expectations.
You can expect reduced energy costs due to IE5 efficiency and lower maintenance burden from robust bearings (6319/C3) and IMB3 mounting. The Ex eb protection minimizes incident downtime in hazardous zones, while IP55 safeguards reduce ingress-related maintenance. Over time, energy savings, safer operation, and easier integration with ABB drive systems contribute to a favorable return on investment and lower total cost of ownership.
