FAQs
Installation should begin with verifying Exdb flameproof suitability for the site, ensuring IP55 protection, and confirming the 4-pole, 160 frame size. Mount the unit using the cast iron frame, connect via the D-code voltage conductor, and position the Terminator Box at the D-End top for accessibility. Observe ambient temperature limits up to 50 C and altitude up to 1000 m, and secure bearing fittings (6309-2Z/C3). Ensure compliance with IC411 insulation and T4 class requirements during commissioning.
IE2 rating indicates energy-efficient operation with Full Load (100%) efficiency around 90.6%. Partial-load performance remains high, with 75% and 50% loads showing 90.7% and 89.6% respectively, helping reduce operating costs and heat generation. This makes the motor suitable for varying load profiles in continuous-duty applications like conveyors and pumps without sacrificing reliability.
