Premium IE3 efficiency reduces operating costs by delivering consistent torque with lower energy consumption over the motor’s lifecycle. This directly translates to measurable savings in rolling stock, conveyors, and the broader mining process while maintaining performance under heavy loads. The Exdb flameproof protection paired with IP66 enclosure ensures safe operation in hazardous atmospheres, minimizing shutdowns and regulatory risk during blasting, grinding, or ore processing activities. The cast iron frame and robust 280 frame size, together with 6316/C3 bearings and IMB5/IM3001 mounting, offer exceptional durability and compatibility with standard mining installations, reducing installation time and spare-part complexity. With a 400 V 50 Hz supply, altitude up to 1000 m, and ambient 40 C, the motor maintains reliability in extreme site conditions, lowering maintenance intervals and enhancing mean time between repairs. The D connection configuration supports flexible wiring in existing plant layouts, while the 8-pole design provides a balance of speed and starting torque for heavy loads, contributing to lower life-cycle costs. A minimum order quantity of 1 piece and the 37 kW rating enable scalable deployment across multiple mining sections without sacrificing performance. Overall, the motor’s combination of safety certifications, rugged mechanicals, and energy efficiency aligns with industry-driven KPIs for uptime, energy intensity, and total cost of ownership in mining and heavy industry applications.

FAQs
Plan for IMB5 IM3001 mounting compatibility and a D-connection wiring scheme to match existing plant layouts. The 8-pole, 280 frame size and cast iron construction support secure mounting and vibration damping in rugged environments. Ensure 400 V, 50 Hz supply and ambient conditions align with the 40 C/1000 m operating envelope to optimize performance and service life.
The motor features Exdb flameproof protection and an IP66 enclosure, providing robust protection against dust and water ingress in hazardous zones. Coupled with ICFL insulation, it maintains insulation integrity under demanding conditions. These certifications support compliance with safety standards in mining, reducing risk during start-up and operation in explosive atmospheres.
IE3 quality helps minimize energy losses during full and part-load operation, delivering significant reductions in utility bills over the motor’s life. In a mining context, where conveyors and pumping systems run for extended periods, this efficiency improvement compounds into meaningful total cost of ownership savings without compromising torque or reliability.
Yes. The motor is designed for 400 V, 50 Hz three-phase systems and supports standard mine electrical infrastructure. Its 8-pole design provides suitable starting torque for heavy loads, while the IMB5 IM3001 mounting and durable cast iron frame simplify integration into existing installations and reduce retrofit risk.
The flameproof Exdb rating, combined with IP66 protection and ICFL insulation, reduces risk of insulation failures and ingress-related faults, leading to longer MTBF. A rugged cast-iron frame and bearing arrangement (6316/C3) tolerate harsh mining vibrations, while maintenance intervals can be extended due to the motor’s durability and protective enclosure, lowering maintenance costs and downtime.
