Feature → Business Impact → Application: Exdb flameproof protection for hazardous areas reduces the risk of ignition and equipment damage, enabling safer operation in oil, gas, and chemical facilities. This protection translates to uptime gains and regulatory confidence when used with Ex-rated drives and control systems. Application: chemical processing plants, offshore platforms, and mining operations requiring explosion-protected motors. Feature → Business Impact → Application: IP55 enclosure combined with IC411/ICLF insulation protects windings and bearings from dust, water ingress, and thermal stress, reducing motor winding failures and maintenance costs. Application: outdoor installations, washdown environments, and high-dust facilities. Feature → Business Impact → Application: IE2 efficiency (Full load 93.7%, partial loads up to 93.9%) lowers energy consumption across continuous operations, improving operating expenses and return on investment. Application: conveyor lines, pumps, and fans with variable load profiles. Feature → Business Impact → Application: cast iron frame, 280 frame size, and 6 poles provide durability and suitable mounting for rugged sites, minimizing vibration-related wear and facilitating long service life. Application: cement plants, metal processing, and mining equipment. Feature → Business Impact → Application: S1 duty, 100% continuous operation with reliable starting and running performance, ensures process stability and predictable maintenance schedules. Application: continuous-process machinery and any application demanding steady torque over extended cycles. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Exd flameproof motor designation aligns with safety standards and regulatory requirements, simplifying procurement, approvals, and installer coordination. Application: global projects in hazardous zones requiring certified equipment with straightforward integration into existing control architectures.

FAQs
This motor uses Exdb flameproof protection and IP55 enclosure, making it suitable for hazardous zones. Installers should verify proper mounting on a cast iron frame (280) with D-end top termination access, ensure ambient temperature does not exceed 50 °C, and confirm altitude under 1000 m. Use approved explosion-protected starters and verify gas group IIB compatibility for safe operation.
IE2 efficiency is rated at full load 93.7% and remains high at partial loads (93.9% at 75% and 93.3% at 50%). In continuous duty (S1), this translates to meaningful energy savings on pumps, fans, and conveyors, reducing electricity consumption, lowering heat rejection, and shortening payback periods for automation projects in hazardous environments.
Yes. The motor is specified for S1 duty, meaning continuous operation with stable torque and thermal performance. Coupled with IP55 protection and Exdb flameproof rating, it maintains reliable performance under sustained loads, while insulation class ICLF supports long-term durability in elevated ambient temperatures typical of industrial plants.
Key certifications include Exdb flameproof protection for hazardous areas, IP55 enclosure, IE2 efficiency, IC411 insulation class, and a Gas Group rating of IIB. The product also carries a 6-pole, cast-iron frame with a 280 size and “D-End top” termination box, aligning with global industrial safety and performance standards.
To maximize ROI, implement regular bearing checks (6316/C3), monitor winding temperatures (ICLF insulation), and maintain clean cooling paths to sustain IE2 efficiency. Use proper lubrication intervals for the 6316/C3 bearings, ensure alignment with driven equipment, and schedule inspections at the 725 kg net/745 kg gross weight class to prevent unexpected downtime in hazardous zones.
