ABB 3GKP133240-BSL 3-Phase Exde Motor - IE3 Flameproof

Exde flameproof protection reduces ignition risk in explosive atmospheres, enabling safe operation in chemical and petrochemical applications while maintaining compliance with hazardous-area codes. This feature translates into lower total cost of ownership by minimizing downtime and inspection intervals in plants with frequent process variations. The motor’s IE3 efficiency delivers measurable energy savings during continuous operation, reducing operating costs over the equipment’s life and supporting sustainability goals for industrial facilities. The sturdy 132 frame in cast iron paired with 6208-2Z/C3 bearings provides robust mechanical integrity, enabling high torque at lower speeds and longer service intervals in heavy-duty applications such as conveyors and mixers. IP55 protection and IC411 insulation ensure reliable performance in dusty, humid environments, withstanding altitude up to 1000 meters and ambient temperatures around 40 °C. The top terminator box location simplifies wiring and troubleshooting, while the 6-pole design offers predictable torque and smoother starting characteristics for integration with standard drive systems. This motor is well-suited for single-speed or fixed-speed drives in hazardous-area drive trains, providing a durable backbone for automation projects in mining, chemical processing, and energy sectors. In practice, engineers gain faster commissioning, easier spare-part planning, and confidence in long-term availability from a trusted ABB design.
