Exdb flameproof protection with IP55 enclosure delivers enhanced safety and compliance for hazardous locations; reduces risk of ignition sources and protects internal components in chemical, oil & gas, and mining facilities, enabling uninterrupted operation. IE2 efficiency rating lowers energy consumption across continuous S1 duty cycles, translating to measurable operating-cost savings on pumps and fans. The 8-pole, 160 frame with cast-iron construction provides high starting torque and durability in harsh environments, improving uptime and reducing maintenance costs in circulating pumps and compressors. IC411 insulation and ambient capability up to 50 °C with 1000 m altitude support safe operation in demanding installations, while the D-End top termination box and IMB5 IM3001 bearing design simplify installation and serviceability. These features collectively enable easier retrofits, standardized spacing, and extended service life for industrial automation projects.

FAQs
This Exdb flameproof motor uses a D-End top termination box for easier wiring in tight spaces and a robust cast-iron frame (160) with 6309-2Z/C3 bearings. Install in locations with IP55 protection and plan for IMB5 IM3001 alignment. Ensure supply matches Voltage Code D and maintain a clean, well-ventilated environment to preserve insulation and cooling performance over time.
The motor features Exdb flameproof protection and IP55 ingress protection, making it suitable for hazardous areas. It is designed for gas group IIB environments and is built with IC411 insulation for high-temperature operation. The combination supports safe operation in explosive atmospheres and aligns with common regulatory requirements in oil, gas, and chemical industries.
Yes, the ABB 3GJA164430-BDCIN meets IE2 efficiency class criteria. Live data shows Full Load efficiency around 85.3% at 100% load and 75% load, with 83.5% at 50% load. This performance translates into meaningful energy savings in continuous-duty applications such as pumps and fans, reducing life-cycle costs and helping meet energy-management targets.
The motor is rated for an ambient temperature up to 50 °C and applications up to 1000 m above sea level. This makes it suitable for mines, refineries, and processing plants with hot environments or elevated locations. While derating is typically minimal within these limits, plan for cooling and ensure proper mounting to maintain efficiency and reliability.
Expect routine inspections of the cast-iron frame and bearing set (6309-2Z/C3) along with periodic insulation checks. With a D-End top termination, wiring should be performed by certified personnel to maintain Exdb integrity. Ensure compatibility with standard drives and motor starters used in hazardous zones, and keep spare bearings and gaskets on-site to minimize downtime during service.
