Exdb flameproof protection reduces ignition risk in explosive atmospheres, enabling safe operation in chemical plants and offshore facilities while meeting hazardous-area standards. This translates to higher uptime, lower incident costs, and easier regulatory compliance when installing motors in classified zones. IE2 efficiency, with full-load around 94.1% and partial-load performance around 94.0% at 75% and 93.0% at 50%, delivers measurable energy savings and lower total cost of ownership in continuous-duty applications such as pumps and fans. The IP55 rating and IC411 insulation class equip the motor to withstand dust, moisture, and high ambient temperatures, ensuring reliable startup and steady operation in demanding environments. The cast-iron 280 frame with 6316/C3 bearings provides rugged durability, reduced maintenance, and compatibility with standard mounting and cooling arrangements. A 2-pole design supports high-speed operation for compact drives, while the D-End top terminator box simplifies wiring and field serviceability in constrained installation spaces.

FAQs
For hazardous-area installations, ensure Exdb flameproof protection and IP55 ingress protection are maintained through proper enclosure sealing and compliant wiring practices. The D-End top terminator box simplifies field wiring, while the 280 frame with cast-iron construction supports robust mounting. Verify gas-group IIB suitability and confirm ambient limiters (up to 50 °C, 1000 m) are observed during commissioning and routine checks.
IE2 efficiency is specified with a full-load figure around 94.1%, with 75% and 50% loads near 94.0% and 93.0% respectively. This translates to meaningful energy savings over the motor’s life, reducing electrical demand charges and cooling load. In continuous-duty applications like pumps and fans, the improved efficiency directly lowers energy consumption and total cost of ownership.
Yes. The motor is designed for continuous S1 duty and operates reliably in ambient temperatures up to 50 °C and altitudes up to 1000 m. This makes it suitable for challenging environments where heat buildup and air density could affect performance, such as processing plants and remote manufacturing sites.
Key classifications include Exdb flameproof protection for hazardous zones, IP55 ingress protection, and IC411 insulation with IIC/IIB gas-group considerations. The motor is built for heavy industrial use with a robust cast-iron frame and 2-pole configuration, supporting safe operation in environments with dust, moisture, and explosive atmospheres.
The 280 frame in cast iron provides high mechanical strength and vibration resistance, enhancing long-term reliability in tough facilities. The 6316/C3 bearings support durable operation, while the D-End top termination box facilitates straightforward electrical connections and maintenance in constrained spaces. This combination reduces downtime during service and simplifies retrofits or integrations with standard ABB drives.
