ABB 3GJA163420-ADCIN 3-Phase Exd Motor - Exdb IP55 IE2

Flameproof Exdb protection provides intrinsic safety in hazardous environments, reducing risk and ensuring regulatory compliance while enabling continuous operation in gas-bearing areas. This directly improves downtime and maintenance costs, supporting uptime in refineries and chemical plants. The Gas Group IIB rating and IP55 enclosure protect against flammable atmospheres and dust ingress, enhancing reliability at ambient temperatures up to 50°C and altitudes around 1000 m, ideal for refinery floors and remote facilities. IE2 efficiency delivers meaningful energy savings under full and partial loads, translating to lower operating costs and greener plant performance across continuous processes. A robust cast-iron frame (160) with a 253 kg net weight and 263 kg gross weight provides structural integrity in rugged environments, while the D-End top terminal box simplifies wiring during installation and future maintenance. IMB3 IM1001 mounting, 6-pole design, and a 160 frame enable predictable torque and easier alignment with standard drives, reducing integration time and spare parts inventory. Direction of Rotation being available on both sides facilitates reversible operation in conveyors and pump trains, alleviating layout constraints. The combination of Exdb protection, flameproof construction, and reliable bearings (6309-2Z/C3) supports long service life and lower lifecycle costs, addressing common objections about expensive hazardous-area motors by delivering proven safety and total cost of ownership benefits. In practice this motor fits safety-critical fluid handling, mining, and gas-processing lines where regulatory compliance and reliability are non-negotiable, while maintaining compatibility with standard installation practices and ABB-compatible components.
