Exd flameproof protection and IIB gas group deliver immediate safety assurances and simplify regulatory certification, reducing risk and expediting approvals for hazardous-area installations. This translates to faster project timelines, lower incident exposure, and improved total cost of ownership in oil & gas facilities, chemical plants, and mining sites. IP55 enclosure protection keeps internal components shielded from dust and moisture, boosting uptime and reducing maintenance cycles in dusty mills, on-shore rigs, and offshore platforms. With IE2 efficiency, full-load performance reaches 93.8% and remains above 91.8% across partial loads, translating into tangible energy savings and lower operating costs across continuous duty operations. The rugged cast-iron frame (280) and precise bearings (6316/C3) underpin long service life and low vibration, supporting heavy loads and reducing bearing replacements. IM class IMB5 IM3001 and a D-end top terminator box simplify alignment and wiring in tight installations, while the 2-pole design delivers strong starting torque in confined spaces. Operating up to 50 °C ambient and 1000 m altitude under IC411 insulation and T4 temperature class, the motor maintains reliable performance across harsh environments. This combination of materials, design, and mounting options makes it compatible with standard ABB accessories and service support, enabling faster commissioning and streamlined maintenance.

FAQs
Installers should plan for a 2-pole, 280 frame motor with a D-End top termination box, ensuring clean cable entry and adequate space for mounting. The cast-iron frame and 625 kg weight demand appropriate foundation and lifting equipment. Verify ICC411 insulation requirements, ensure proper torque during mounting, and confirm Exd protection is wired and tested per regional hazardous-area standards.
Yes. The motor is rated Exdb flameproof with IIB gas group, designed for hazardous zones and compliant with ATEX/IECEx style criteria. This enables safer operation in explosive atmospheres and simplifies the certification process during plant upgrades or new installations, reducing commissioning delays and regulatory risk.
The motor is IE2 rated, delivering Full Load efficiency around 93.8%, with approximately 93.3% at 75% load and 91.8% at 50% load. This steady efficiency profile supports energy savings across varying load conditions, helping to lower electricity costs over the motor’s duty cycle in continuous-operation applications.
It operates in ambient temperatures up to 50 °C and at altitudes up to 1000 m, with an IP55 enclosure and IC411 insulation. The 280 frame uses a cast-iron construction and 2-pole design, with a D-End top terminator box, making it compatible with standard mounting arrangements and service tools for easy retrofit or new-install projects.
The Exd protection plus IE2 efficiency translates to lower compliance risk and reduced energy bills, while the rugged cast-iron frame and long-life bearings minimize maintenance cycles and spare-part usage. In hazardous-area operations, these factors collectively shorten downtime, extend mean time between failures, and improve overall project ROI.
