ABB 3GKP161420-BDL 3-Phase Motor - Flameproof IE3
Part Number: 3GKP161420-BDL
Quick Summary
Flameproof IE3 3-Phase motor by ABB delivers reliable power for hazardous industrial drives. Operators wrestle with energy waste, frequent voltage fluctuations, and downtime in Ex zones. This motor combines premium IE3 efficiency, flameproof Exdbeb protection for IIB environments, and IP55 enclosure to meet tough site requirements. With a 15 kW rating, 2-pole design, and 400 V supply, it supports demanding processes while reducing energy use and maintenance. Strategically, it simplifies procurement and installation for industrial projects by aligning with frame 160, mounting IMB5/IM3001, and top termination options. Coupled with robust bearings (6309/C3) and a broad operating envelope (40 °C ambient, up to 1000 m altitude), the solution offers long-term cost of ownership benefits.

FAQs
This motor uses a D connection configuration with a top termination box and IMB5/IM3001 mounting options. It is a 2-pole, frame size 160 unit rated for 400 V, 50 Hz, suitable for a range of conveyor, pump, and fan applications in hazardous environments.
Key certifications include IEC 60034-1 for performance; IP55 enclosure for dust and water ingress protection; Ex protection Exdbeb for gas environments (IIB); insulation class ICLF and IC411 classification to ensure safe, continuous operation in harsh sites.
Yes. It is flameproof Exdbeb with Gas Group IIB protection, IP55, and operates under ambient 40 °C up to 1000 m altitude, making it appropriate for oil, gas, refining, and chemical processing sites.
The motor delivers 15 kW output with a 2-pole design, suitable for high-torque starts. With IE3 efficiency, it minimizes energy losses during full-load and partial-load operation, supporting cost-effective continuous duty (S1).
Premium IE3 efficiency reduces energy costs, while the rugged cast-iron frame and bearings (6309/C3) extend service life. Installation benefits include top-termination and compatibility with IMB5/IM3001 mounting, lowering maintenance frequency and downtime.
