FAQs

This motor is designed for IMB3/IM1001 mounting and uses a D connection configuration, enabling straightforward integration into existing ABB/M3KP lineups. It supports 500 V 50 Hz operation, frame size 132, and an IP55 enclosure, making it suitable for hazaradous zones such as chemical plants or refineries that require Exdbeb protection and robust build.
Exdbeb protection minimizes ignition risk in hazardous zones, improving safety and compliance. Maintenance considerations focus on periodic inspections of flameproof enclosures, seals, and connectors to preserve integrity in hot or dusty environments. The design reduces unplanned downtime, while continued adherence to maintenance schedules sustains long-term performance.
Yes. The motor is rated for 500 V, 50 Hz, 4 poles, 5.5 kW, and IE3 efficiency, with Exdbeb protection and IP55 enclosure. Its design accommodates S1 duty and ambient up to 40 °C, altitude up to 1000 m, making it appropriate for mining, chemical processing, and other hazardous-location applications.
Key certifications and conditions include Exdbeb flameproof protection, IP55 rating, IE3 efficiency, IC411 insulation, Temperature Class T4, and a 4-pole, 132-frame-size design. Operating conditions cover ambient 40 °C, altitude up to 1000 m, and 50 Hz operation, with a D wiring configuration for reliable integration.
ROI benefits stem from IE3 energy savings at 5.5 kW, reduced downtime due to robust flameproof construction, and longer service life in harsh environments. The motor’s Ex protection and IP55 enclosure lower maintenance costs and risk, while IMB3 mounting simplifies installation and future upgrades, delivering a lower total cost of ownership in hazardous-zone operations.
