Ex eb protection with IP55 enclosure provides safe operation in hazardous zones, reducing integration risk for chemical processing, oil & gas, and mining equipment. The robust enclosure supports outdoor and indoor installations while maintaining ingress protection and reliability, enabling longer service intervals and lower maintenance costs. IE5 efficiency translates to measurable energy savings in continuous duty applications, improving total cost of ownership by lowering energy consumption and heat rejection. The motor's 132 kW output at 500 V is optimized for high-performance drives, delivering torque consistency under load swings and reducing thermal stress on power electronics. The 4-pole synchronous reluctance design delivers smooth torque, reduced rotor losses, and compatibility with IMB5 IM3001 mounting, simplifying drivetrain integration. Cast-iron frame size 315 and bearings 6319/C3 ensure mechanical robustness in demanding environments, while the D-connection configuration supports straightforward motor wiring and controller compatibility. Designed for versatile installation, the motor supports altitude up to 1000 m and ambient temperatures up to 40 °C, maintaining performance across typical industrial sites. Its protection class IP55 and insulation ICLF, combined with gas group IIC, offer regulatory compliance and risk mitigation in hazardous locations. Industry-ready features address common objections: minimal maintenance due to high efficiency, long-life bearings, and ABB's IMB5/IM3001 mounting compatibility, plus available environmental documentation such as an Environmental Product Declaration for SynRM motors.

FAQs
Plan for Ex eb protection and IP55 enclosure, choose the D-connection configuration, and mount on IMB5/IM3001 as specified. Ensure a 500 V, 50 Hz supply and verify operation within 1000 m altitude and 40 °C ambient. Use approved enclosure and junction-box fittings, follow ABB installation guidelines, and test torque and protection integrity after mounting.
Key specs include 132 kW output, 4 poles, 500 V input, 50 Hz frequency, IE5 efficiency, IP55 enclosure, and Exeb hazardous-area protection. It uses a D connection configuration and operates within a 40 °C ambient limit, suitable for S9 duty cycles with a robust cast-iron frame.
Yes. It carries Exeb protection and IP55 enclosure, is rated for IIC gas group environments, and is designed for operation in hazardous locations. The motor also supports IMB5/IM3001 mounting and a 1000 m altitude limit, which helps ensure reliable performance in challenging sites.
The motor meets IE5 efficiency requirements and Ex protection (Ex eb) for hazardous areas, along with IP55 ingress protection. It features a Cast Iron frame (315) and ICLF insulation, with Mounting IMB5/IM3001 and Gas Group IIC classifications, aligning with industry and safety standards for heavy industrial use.
The IE5 efficiency class directly reduces energy costs in continuous operation, contributing to faster return on investment. The robust cast-iron frame and long-life bearings (6319/C3) minimize maintenance needs, while IP55 and Ex protections reduce downtime in hazardous environments. Overall, lifecycle costs are lowered through improved reliability and energy savings.
