The 90 kW Ex eb synchronous reluctance design delivers high efficiency and reduced energy draw in continuous operation, lowering operating costs while complying with stringent safety standards. This translates to tangible business gains, including lower energy bills, predictable downtime, and easier regulatory alignment for hazardous-area installations. With IP55 enclosure and Ex protection, it is suited for harsh industrial environments such as chemical processing, metalforming, and mining, where reliability is paramount. The 4-pole, 315 frame, 400 V, 50 Hz configuration enables compact, high-torque drives with consistent performance across a wide operating envelope. IMB5/IM3001 mounting compatibility simplifies retrofit projects, reducing installation time and risk during plant upgrades. Cast-iron frame and bearing system (6319/C3 with 6316/C3VL0241) extend service life, lowering maintenance costs and unplanned downtime. The D-connection and IC411 insulation class support robust electrical isolation and safe operation at altitude up to 1000 m and ambient temperatures up to 40 C, enabling flexible deployment across multiple sites.

FAQs
The motor is designed for IMB5/IM3001 mounting, with a D-connection configuration, enabling straightforward retrofit and new-install compatibility. Installers should verify alignment with the IMB5 mounting footprint, secure the terminal box access, and follow torque specifications for the bearings and fixing screws. This minimizes commissioning time and ensures reliable venting and cooling performance in 50 Hz, 400 V networks.
Key specs include 90 kW output, 4 poles, 315 frame size, 400 V nominal input, 50 Hz frequency, and output at 90 kW with full-load IE5 efficiency. The motor is IP55 protected, Exeb certified for hazardous zones, and insulated to IC411 class. It operates at altitudes up to 1000 m and ambient temperatures up to 40 C, with a D connection configuration.
Yes. The 3GHL312222-BDC features Exeb protection for hazardous areas and an IP55 enclosure, making it suitable for industrial plants with flammable atmospheres. Gas group IIC rating and robust insulation (ICFL/IC411 family) support safe operation. This enables safe drives in chemical, oil, and metal industries while maintaining high efficiency and reliability.
The motor achieves IE5 efficiency, which translates to lower energy consumption across operating loads, helping meet energy targets and sustainability programs. Compliance is reinforced by IP55 protection, IC411 insulation, Exeb hazardous-area certification, and robust frame design. These factors collectively reduce life-cycle costs and support regulatory and industry-standard adherence for industrial automation projects.
ROI benefits come from IE5 efficiency reducing energy bills and a longer service life due to a cast-iron frame and reliable bearing arrangement (6319/C3, 6316/C3VL0241). Maintenance periods extend with durable bearings, while IMB5 mounting simplifies retrofits and minimizes downtime during upgrades. The motor’s robust enclosure and insulation also lower risk of temperature-related degradation in demanding environments.
