The motor leverages IE5 efficiency coupled with synchronous reluctance technology to reduce energy consumption in continuous-duty applications, lowering operating costs and contributing to sustainability targets for process and material handling systems. This higher efficiency translates to tangible cash savings on utility bills and improved torque characteristics for conveyors and pumps, enhancing throughput without increasing footprint. Ex eb explosion protection, referenced to gas group IIC, enables safe installation in potentially explosive atmospheres, reducing compliance risk and simplifying site approvals for chemical processing and oil and gas facilities. The IP55 enclosure protects against dust and water ingress, extending service intervals in dusty plants and outdoor installations. Cast-iron frame and 315 frame size support rugged operation, while IMB3/IM1001 mounting simplifies retrofits and OEM integration. The 132 kW output at 50 Hz, 4 poles, and 500 V input align with standard industrial drives, enabling straightforward electrical and mechanical integration. A D-connection configuration and a 4-pole design deliver stable operation under S9 duty, improving reliability on heavy-duty tasks such as milling, agitating, and pumping. At 1000 m altitude and 40 °C ambient, the motor maintains performance margins in elevated, hot environments, ensuring longevity and predictable maintenance windows.
