FAQs
The 3GKP163410-AEK features Exdbeb flameproof protection and is designed for gas groups up to IIB, aligning with typical hazardous-area installation standards. It uses a 3‑phase 500 V, 50 Hz supply, with a D connection configuration and IMB3/IM1001 mounting for robust, code-compliant setup in Zone 1/2 type environments. This makes integration straightforward for ATEX/IECEx projects and supplier qualification audits.
Installers should ensure proper mounting on a rigid base compatible with IMB3/IM1001 standards and provide adequate ventilation to maintain 40 °C ambient limits. With IP55, protect from excessive water ingress and dust. The motor’s 6-pole, 7.5 kW design suits compact spaces, but plan for adequate clearance for top-terminator wiring and service access.
Yes. The motor adheres to IEC 60034-1 and features Exdbeb flameproof protection for hazardous atmospheres, IP55 enclosure, and IC411 insulation. These features support compliance with ATEX/IECEx regulatory frameworks and ensure safe operation in demanding industrial settings.
IE3 premium efficiency reduces electrical losses under full-load and partial-load conditions, delivering meaningful energy savings over the motor’s life. For continuous applications like pumps and conveyors, this translates to lower utility bills, reduced heat load, and extended equipment life due to lower thermal stress, supporting a stronger total cost of ownership case.
The motor is ideal for pumps, mixers, conveyors, and processing equipment in chemical, oil & gas, and mining settings where flameproof protection and reliable performance are required. Its 7.5 kW output, robust cast-iron frame, and IMB3/IM1001 mounting support rugged installations while meeting safety and efficiency targets for critical processes.
