Exd flameproof protection is a defining feature that translates to safer operations and lower risk in hazardous zones. This capability directly reduces the need for costly protective enclosures and simplifies compliance with ATEX/IECEx requirements, enabling installation in process zones that demand strict containment. The motor's IE3 efficiency rating, backed by a full-load figure of 95.2% and partial-load performance near 95%, drives meaningful energy savings across continuous operations, lowering total cost of ownership in chemical, oil & gas, and mining facilities. A rugged 280 mm cast-iron frame paired with 6316/C3 bearings supports longevity and stable performance in tough environments, reducing unscheduled downtime and maintenance costs. The D-End top termination box and IMB5 IM3001 mounting class streamline installation and serviceability, helping technicians complete commissioning quickly and safely. With a two-pole design, IP55 enclosure, and Exdb protection, the unit remains reliable at 50 °C ambient, up to 1000 m altitude, delivering predictable torque and surge resistance for demanding automation tasks.

FAQs

This motor uses Exdb flameproof protection and an IP55 enclosure, making it suitable for hazardous zones. Plan for a D-End top termination box, ensure proper clearance for ease of maintenance, and verify Gas Group IIB compatibility. The 280 frame, cast iron construction, and IMB5 IM3001 mounting support secure, vibration-resistant installation in challenging environments.
The motor meets IE3 efficiency standards, with Full Load efficiency listed at 95.2% and Partial Loads around 95.0–94.2% depending on load. It is designed for S1 continuous operation, ensuring reliable performance for non-stop processes in hazardous areas.
Yes. The unit is Exdb flameproof protected and classified for Gas Group IIB, with an IP55 enclosure and IC411 insulation, aligning with common ATEX/IECEx requirements for hazardous-zone motors used in chemical, mining, and energy sectors.
The motor uses a D-End top termination box and IMB5 IM3001 mounting class for straightforward wiring and alignment. Cast iron frame size 280 provides rugged durability, while bearings 6316/C3 support long service life and predictable performance during vibration-heavy operation. With a weight around 836 kg net, installation robustly supports heavy-duty industrial use.
Energy savings from IE3 efficiency reduce operating costs in continuous duty service. The flameproof Exdb protection lowers safety-related downtime and enclosure expenses, while the robust mechanical design and bearings minimize maintenance and replacement needs, delivering a favorable total cost of ownership in hazardous-area operations.
