FAQs
Plan for IMB3/IM1001 mounting compatibility and D-End top terminator box access. Ensure a 380 V, 50 Hz supply for a 315 kW, 4-pole motor, with adequate space for cooling and vibration isolation. Account for the cast-iron frame, weight around 1.5 metric tons, and compliance with IP55 and Exeb protection in plant layouts.
IE5 efficiency reduces input power for rated output, lowering energy costs on continuous-duty drives such as conveyors and pumps. The improved efficiency also minimizes thermal load, which extends bearing life and reduces cooling requirements. In regulated industries, the higher efficiency supports sustainability reporting and can improve ROI through energy savings over the motor’s life.
Yes. It features Exeb explosion protection and IIC gas-group suitability along with IP55 protection, enabling safe operation in hazardous areas. This makes the motor appropriate for chemical processing, oil and gas facilities, and other environments where flammable atmospheres demand certified instrumentation and rugged enclosure integrity.
Ideal for heavy-duty process equipment, packaging lines, and large material-handling drives. The 315 kW output, 4-pole configuration, and robust enclosure support reliable operation in demanding environments, with energy-efficient performance and safe operation in zones requiring Ex protection and IP55 sealing.
The SynRM design with cast-iron frame and robust bearings (6319/C3, 6316/C3VL0241) supports long service intervals and lower maintenance. IMB3/IM1001 mounting simplifies installation, while IE5 efficiency reduces thermal cycling. Together with ABB EcoSolutions, the motor promotes sustainability and lower total cost of ownership across its lifespan.
