FAQs
This motor uses a Y (star) connection suitable for 690 V systems and 50 Hz operation, aligning with common industrial electrical layouts. With a 315 frame and IMB3/IM1001 mounting, it integrates into standard baseplates and variable-speed drive applications. Ensure your enclosure space supports IP55 protection and verify nearby components for safe clearance and cooling in 40 °C ambient conditions.
At 50 Hz, the motor delivers 160 kW continuous output with high efficiency class IE5. The design uses a 4-pole configuration for suitable speed-torque balance and INs with robust bearings (6319/C3) for long life. Expect strong torque at start, steady operation under full-load conditions, and reduced energy losses compared with lower IE classes, especially in nonstop duty.
Yes. The model includes Exeb protection for hazardous areas and an IP55 enclosure, suitable for Zone 1/2 environments in the chemical, petrochemical, and processing sectors. Its gas-group IIC rating supports aggressive atmospheres, while the IMB3/IM1001 mounting options simplify safe installation and maintenance in tough industrial locations.
The motor meets IE5 efficiency requirements and Exeb explosion protection, with IP55 enclosure and 4-pole, 315 frame design. It is also accompanied by an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) and ABB EcoSolutions support, underpinning sustainability reporting and lifecycle compliance for industrial projects.
Benefits include significant energy savings from IE5 efficiency and reduced downtime due to rugged IP55 sealing and robust bearings. The Exeb protection minimizes unintended outages in hazardous zones, while the motor’s reliable IMB3/IM1001 mounting supports longer service intervals and predictable maintenance planning, contributing to a favorable total cost of ownership over the motor’s lifespan.
