Exdb flameproof protection and IP66 enclosure significantly reduce ignition risk in hazardous zones, enabling compliant operation in mining and chemical processing environments. Business impact: safer installations, reduced risk exposure, and less downtime due to protective design. Applications: drive systems for conveyors, pumps, and fans in surface and underground facilities. The IE3 premium efficiency rating at 160 kW under 500 V and 50 Hz lowers energy costs and carbon footprint, supporting a faster return on investment and improved machine availability. Applications include continuous mining equipment and bulk material handling where energy intensity is a concern. The 315 frame, cast-iron construction, and 6316/C3 bearings deliver long service life and predictable lubrication intervals, translating to lower maintenance spend and easier spares planning. This motor’s IMB5/IM3001 terminator box mounting simplifies installation on existing mine desktops and machinery, reducing commissioning time. Altitude up to 1000 m and ambient temperatures up to 40 °C are accommodated without derating, which minimizes site modifications. The D connection configuration and 2-pole design provide flexible installation options, while the Exdb protection aligns with global hazardous-area standards. Industry context shows operators benefit from robust protection plus modular mounting for rapid fleet upgrades, ensuring consistent performance across harsh conditions.

FAQs
For hazardous-area installations, ensure Exdb flameproof protection is verified for the specific zone and that the IP66 enclosure is intact to prevent dust ingress. Use the IMB5/IM3001 mounting arrangement compatible with the 315 frame and plan for Delta (D) connection configuration at 500 V, 50 Hz. Confirm grounding practices and routine inspections per site safety standards.
Exdb flameproof protection does not degrade performance but ensures safe operation in explosive atmospheres. The motor maintains its rated 160 kW output at 500 V and 50 Hz with IE3 efficiency, while the enclosure prevents ignition of surrounding gases under fault conditions. This reduces risk while preserving drive effectiveness in demanding environments.
Yes. The motor is specified for an altitude of up to 1000 m and ambient temperatures up to 40 °C, with IP66 and IC411 insulation. Its rugged Cast Iron frame and IMB5/IM3001 mounting support long-term operation in harsh mining conditions, minimizing derating or performance loss during elevated temperatures.
The motor features Exdb flameproof protection, IP66 enclosure, and IE3 efficiency, meeting stringent hazardous-area and energy-efficiency requirements. Insulation class ICFL, frame 315, and IMB5/IM3001 mounting add to compliance credibility. These certifications help satisfy regulatory, customer, and insurance requirements across mining and heavy industry projects.
ROI benefits arise from IE3 efficiency reducing energy consumption for continuous duty, plus lower maintenance due to robust sealing and bearing design (6316/C3). The Exdb protection minimizes ignition-related downtime, while IP66 protection reduces ingress-related wear. A longer service life and predictable maintenance schedules translate to lower total cost of ownership in high-demand mining fleets.
