Ex protection is Exdbeb flameproof and the unit is rated for IIB gas groups and a T4 temperature class, delivering essential safety in hazardous environments and enabling compliant operation in chemical and petrochemical facilities. The business impact is clear: lower ignition risk, simplified regulatory adherence, and fewer site interruptions, which translates into consistent production uptime and safer workplaces. This motor’s IE3 premium efficiency reduces energy consumption under full and partial loads, offering tangible cost savings on monthly utility bills and a faster return on investment for capital projects in oil, gas, and power generation applications. In practice, the combination of IP55 enclosure and 6-pole design supports reliable operation in dusty or humid plant floors, minimizes maintenance cycles, and extends bearing life in demanding industrial settings. With a 3 kW rating at 500 V and 50 Hz, the motor is a natural fit for modern automation architectures and ABB’s drive interoperability, ensuring straightforward installation and compatibility with IMB14/IM3601 mounting (frame size 132). The rugged cast-iron frame, precise bearing selection (6208-2Z/C3), and IM class IMB14 IM3601 support contribute to long service life, reduced replacement intervals, and predictable torque delivery for heavy-duty conveyors, mixers, and pumps. Altitude and ambient-temperature tolerance (1000 m; 40 °C) further broaden site applicability, while the IP55/IP55-rated enclosure guards against dust and water ingress in outdoor or semi-enclosed installations. This makes the 3GKP133240-CEK a compelling choice for hazardous-area upgrades, where safety, efficiency, and reliability drive project ROI and compliance.

FAQs
When installing the ABB 3GKP133240-CEK in hazardous areas, follow the IECEx/ATEX regulatory framework and use Ex-certified components. Mount the motor using IMB14/IM3601 footprints and ensure the terminal box location (D-End top) aligns with your control cabinet. Use correct cable glands, proper sealing, and torque settings on the 6-pole shaft to maintain flameproof integrity and IP55 protection.
The motor delivers 3 kW of output power at 500 V input with a 50 Hz supply, operates as a 3-phase squirrel cage machine with 6 poles, and features Exdbeb flameproof protection. It uses a D connection, has IP55 enclosure, and supports 50 Hz and 60 Hz duty with IE3 Premium Efficiency. Insulation is class ICLF, suitable for hazardous-area installations with IIB gas group.
Yes. The 3GKP133240-CEK is specified for 50 Hz operation with an IE3 efficiency rating and also provides data for 60 Hz performance. At 60 Hz, full-load efficiency is indicated around 89.5%, with slightly lower values at partial loads (approximately 87–89%). This makes it suitable for mixed electrical environments where both frequencies are encountered, while maintaining premium efficiency and reliable torque delivery.
The motor carries Exdbeb flameproof protection for hazardous zones, IIB gas group suitability, and a T4 temperature class. It features an IP55 enclosure, IC411 insulation, and IMB14/IM3601 mounting compatibility. This combination supports regulatory compliance in chemical and petrochemical facilities and aligns with industry best practices for safe, continuous operation in harsh environments.
The premium IE3 efficiency translates to measurable energy savings over time, reducing operating costs and cooling requirements in continuous-duty applications. Combined with Ex protection and a robust cast-iron frame, maintenance intervals are typically longer due to improved bearing life and fewer nuisance faults from environmental exposure. The overall ROI improves with uptime gains, lower energy consumption, and reduced risk of fire-related outages in hazardous-area operations.
