Explosion protection is built into the Exdb flameproof enclosure, enabling safe operation in hazardous-area installations and reducing the risk of costly shutdowns. The business impact is clear: compliant, continuous operation with predictable maintenance planning in ATEX/IECEx contexts; applications include pumps, fans, and compressors in chemical plants. IE3 efficiency at full-load (92.5%) translates to meaningful energy savings and lower running costs over the motor’s life, particularly in continuous-duty scenarios. IP55 protection guards against dust and water ingress in tough plant environments, meaning less downtime and easier installation in outdoor or dirty facilities. The 8-pole, 280-frame design supports robust torque and smooth operation, improving process stability for drives and motor-control hardware. Cast-iron construction and bearing 6316/C3 offer longevity, reduced maintenance, and better vibration damping in heavy-load applications. Direction of rotation is suitable for installations requiring flexibility, simplifying wiring and alignment during commissioning while maintaining reliable performance across multiple duty cycles.

FAQs
Exdb flameproof motors like 3GJA284230-ADDIN are designed to operate with compatible VFDs that support hazardous-area motor standards. Ensure the drive is rated for ATEX/IECEx environments and set appropriate overload, torque, and thermal protections. Check motor nameplate IE3 efficiency, 8-pole geometry, and frame size 280 to match the drive’s output and cabling configuration. Use shielded cables and proper enclosure entries to maintain IP55 integrity during commissioning.
Key specs include Exdb flameproof protection, IP55 enclosure rating, 8-pole construction, frame size 280, and IE3 efficiency with full-load efficiency around 92.5%. The motor operates under S1 duty in ambient up to 50 °C and altitude up to 1000 m, with a cast-iron frame and bearings 6316/C3 for extended life. These specs support reliable operation in continuous hazardous-area service.
Yes. The Exdb flameproof protection combined with gas group IIB classification and IP55 enclosure makes it suitable for hazardous-area installations where explosive atmospheres may be present. Its IE3 efficiency further reduces running costs in continuous service, while the robust mechanical design supports long intervals between maintenance in tough environments.
The motor carries Exdb flameproof protection and is rated IP55 for ingress resistance. It is designed for hazardous-area use with gas group IIB and IE3 efficiency classification. The device also conforms to IC411 and other relevant standards for industrial electrical machinery, ensuring safe and compliant operation in demanding plants.
The combination of Exdb flameproof design, IP55 protection, and IE3 efficiency delivers lower energy costs and reduced downtime due to its robust cast-iron frame and durable bearings (6316/C3). The long bearing life and reliable rotation contribute to predictable maintenance intervals and faster commissioning, delivering a favorable return on investment for hazardous-area processes.
