FAQs
The ABB 3GHL312222-AUC uses IMB3/IM1001 mounting suitable for frame size 315 and features a Y connection configuration for 3-phase 690 V, 50 Hz operation. Installation should reference the D-End top terminator box placement and the bearing arrangement (6319/C3) to ensure proper alignment and service access. This alignment simplifies retrofit projects and minimizes wiring complexity in control cabinets.
This motor is rated IE5 for high efficiency, with an IP55 enclosure for dust and moisture protection and Ex eb explosion protection for hazardous-area suitability. It operates at 690 V, 50 Hz, with a 4-pole configuration, and insulation class ICLF, making it well-suited for long duty cycles in demanding plants while maintaining safety and reliability.
Yes. The Ex eb protection and ATEX/IECEx compatibility, along with IIC gas group capability, make it appropriate for hazardous areas such as chemical processing and oil/refining facilities. Its IE5 efficiency helps reduce heat and energy usage, while the rugged IMB3 mounting and robust frame support reliable, long-term operation under harsh conditions.
The motor carries an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) for Synchronous Reluctance motors with increased safety, along with WEEE Category 4 classification for large equipment. ABB EcoSolutions and a documented sustainability profile support compliant procurement, ESG reporting, and lifecycle assessments for industrial projects.
The expected ROI comes from IE5 energy savings over the motor’s life, reduced cooling needs, and lower maintenance due to robust bearings and a cast-iron frame. The Ex eb protection minimizes maintenance risk in hazardous zones, while IMB3 mounting simplifies retrofits and integration with existing ABB drive ecosystems, delivering predictable uptime and lifecycle cost benefits.
