IE5 efficiency with synchronous reluctance (SynRM) technology lowers electrical losses, delivering tangible energy savings and reduced operating costs. This translates to lower life-cycle costs and improved overall plant profitability for continuous-duty drives such as pumps, conveyors, and fans. Applications include process lines in manufacturing facilities where energy intensity is a profitability driver and where tight speed control matters. Ex eb protection provides explosion protection for hazardous areas, enhancing safety, simplifying regulatory compliance, and reducing risk during maintenance. This enables deployment in chemical plants, offshore platforms, and oil & gas facilities where ignition sources must be mitigated. IP55 enclosure and IMB5/IM3001 mounting offer rugged ingress protection and straightforward installation, shortening commissioning times and reducing retrofit risk. Ideal for outdoor equipment, dusty plants, and marine environments where reliability and protection are non-negotiable. The 315 frame, 4-pole design, and 110 kW output ensure stable torque across speed ranges, supporting smooth control of heavy loads like mills or compressors, while keeping wear and downtime in check. Eco-friendly features such as ABB EcoSolutions and an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) aid sustainability-focused procurement, providing a clear environmental profile for supplier audits and green plant initiatives. Reliability, safety, and efficiency together translate into measurable uptime and faster payback in modernization projects.

FAQs
Install the 315-frame SynRM unit using the IMB5/IM3001 mounting pattern, confirming proper alignment and shaft coupling. Connect the D configuration for delta connection as specified, verify ambient temperature rating of 40 °C, and ensure IP55 protection is maintained with appropriate seals. Use standard ABB drive interfaces and wire gauge suitable for 110 kW at 380 V to maximize performance and reliability.
IE5 efficiency indicates the motor operates at the highest energy-efficiency class available for induction motors, reducing copper losses and energy consumption under full-load and partial-load conditions. For maintenance, this typically translates to cooler operation, potentially longer bearing life, and reduced cooling requirements, which can lower cooling system wear and energy use in ongoing plant operation.
Yes. The motor features Ex eb explosion protection and an IP55 enclosure, making it suitable for hazardous areas such as chemical plants or offshore installations. Its mounting and protection enable safer operation in challenging environments, while meeting industry standards for electrical safety and reliability, helping to simplify certification and reduce protective equipment needs.
Beyond IE5 efficiency and Ex eb protection, the motor carries an IP55 enclosure rating, insulation class ICLF, a 315 frame size, 4 poles, and a S9 duty class. It also aligns with IMB5/IM3001 mounting standards and provides a robust build with a Cast Iron frame, supporting safe operation in demanding industrial settings.
ROI is driven by energy savings from IE5 efficiency, reduced downtime due to rugged Ex eb/IP55 protection, and extended service life from robust mechanical design. Maintenance benefits include fewer cooling needs, easier retrofits with existing ABB drives, and predictable wear patterns with 4-pole operation. For modernization projects, this motor often delivers faster payback through combined energy and maintenance cost reductions.
