FAQs
Installing the ABB 3GJA314820-BDCIN in hazardous environments requires attention to Exd flameproof protection (Exdb), IP55 enclosure, and a cast-iron 315 frame. Use appropriate flameproof terminal boxes, maintain proper clearance from flammable sources, and follow local electrical codes. Ensure the D-End top terminator box and dual-direction rotation option suit your mounting pattern and existing drive system for minimal retrofit time.
This motor features IE2 efficiency with Full Load around 92.9% (100%), 93.0% at 75% load, and 92.4% at 50% load at 50 Hz. The design uses 8 poles for robust starting torque and smooth operation in continuous-duty (S1) service. It is optimized for steady process control while delivering reliable power in hazardous locations.
Yes, the 3GJA314820-BDCIN is rated for S1 continuous duty and is equipped with a flameproof Exd enclosure providing Exdb protection. Its IP55 rating supports ingress protection against dust and water, making it suitable for demanding production floors and outdoor installations where washdowns or splashes may occur.
The motor employs cast iron framing with bearings 6319/C3 (main) and 6316/C3 (NDE), supporting long service life under vibration and load fluctuations. Regular lubrication schedules per ABB maintenance guidelines, inspection of terminal connections, and monitoring for heat buildup will help maximize uptime in harsh environments.
The motor carries Exdb flameproof protection for hazardous zones, IP55 sealing, and Gas Group IIB with Temperature Class T4. Insulation class is ICLF, and IE2 efficiency is specified for energy performance. It complies with safety and performance standards for hazardous-area motors, enabling compliant deployment in chemical, oil & gas, and mining applications.
