Flameproof Exdbeb protection with IP55 enclosure reduces risk of ignition in hazardous environments, delivering measurable safety and compliance improvements for chemical plants and oil facilities. This protection translates to fewer incident-driven shutdowns and easier regulatory audits, while enabling reliable operation at 500 V, 50 Hz with a 4-pole design for steady torque. The IE3 Premium Efficiency rating lowers energy consumption across continuous duty applications, driving lower operating costs in pumps, fans, and conveyors. The 11 kW output with Y connection provides robust performance with manageable starting current, supporting compact motor control schemes and scalable drives. Frame 160 and weight of 234 kg offer a solid installation footprint with straightforward OEM integration and service access. IMB5/IM3001 mounting compatibility simplifies retrofits and new installations, reducing commissioning time. Finland origin, 1000 m altitude capability, and 40 °C ambient tolerance ensure dependable operation in challenging sites while maintaining global procurement consistency. The unit’s 85015230 tariff classification aids in smooth customs processing for international projects.

FAQs
Install the 3GKP162410-BFL using IMB5/IM3001 mounting with a Y-connected 500 V, 50 Hz configuration. Ensure the top-entry terminal box, flameproof enclosure, and proper earthing are wired per ABB installation guides. Consider space for ventilation and routine bearing checks, and verify the Exdbeb protection remains intact after cabling.
Key ratings include 11 kW output, 4 poles, 500 V nominal input, and 50 Hz frequency with a Y connection. The motor offers IE3 premium efficiency, IP55 protection, and Exdbeb flameproof certification for hazardous environments. These specs support reliable torque, consistent speed, and efficient operation under S1 duty in demanding installations.
Industries with hazardous atmospheres, such as chemical processing, oil and gas, mining, and petrochemical facilities, benefit most. The Exdbeb protection, IIB gas group rating, and IP55 enclosure provide explosion protection and rugged sealing while the IE3 efficiency supports ongoing energy savings in continuous-duty pumps, fans, and conveyors.
The motor features Exdbeb flameproof protection, IP55 enclosure, IE3 premium efficiency, and ICFL insulation with a 4-pole configuration. Gas Group IIB and a 1000 m altitude rating support regulatory compliance and reliable performance in challenging sites. IE3 reduces energy consumption, lowers operating costs, and improves return on investment in continuous operations.
Adopt a preventive plan including regular bearing inspection (6309/C3), lubrication scheduling, seal integrity checks, and alignment verification. Maintain terminal connections and ensure the Exdbeb joints remain intact after servicing. Use standard ABB wiring diagrams for field wiring and maintain a consistent spare-parts strategy to minimize downtime and extend lifecycle costs.
