Exdbeb flameproof protection provides intrinsic safety in explosive atmospheres; it limits ignition risks, helping plants meet hazardous-area standards and avoid costly shutdowns. The protection level is complemented by a robust IP55 enclosure and a cast-iron frame, delivering dependable operation in harsh environments. This makes the motor suitable for chemical plants, refineries, and mining operations where frequent washdowns and dust are common. IE3 premium efficiency at 7.5 kW reduces energy consumption and operating costs; at 50 Hz the full-load efficiency reaches around 89.1% (100%) and 90.0% at 75% load, improving overall plant energy intensity. Paired with a 500 V supply and a 6-pole design, the motor supports high starting torque and steady, efficient running of pumps, fans, or conveyors in continuous duty. IP55, IC411 insulation, and ICLF insulation together with Ex-protection enable longer service intervals, reducing maintenance costs and extending motor life in hot, dusty sites. The design handles ambient temperatures up to 40 °C and elevations up to 1000 m, keeping performance consistent. IMB3/IM1001 mounting and the top-terminator box location streamline installation and future service; the 160 frame size and 6 poles provide standard compatibility with ABB drive systems and control cabinets. Bearing robustness is enhanced by 6309/C3 bearings in both the bearing and NDE positions, while the cast-iron frame offers rigidity and vibration resistance for industrial environments. This combination supports reliable operation in demanding applications, with reduced downtime and predictable maintenance.

FAQs
Installers should plan for IMB3/IM1001 mounting with the top terminator box, using a 160 frame and 6-pole configuration. Ensure a 500 V, 50 Hz supply and proper cable entry sealing for IP55 protection. Verify Exdbeb protection aligns with Zone IIB gas group requirements and confirm compliance with IEC 60034-1 standards for safe operation.
The motor delivers 7.5 kW output with 89.1% full-load efficiency at 100% load and 90.0% at 75% load. It runs on a 500 V supply, 50 Hz, with 6 poles, and provides reliable torque for continuous-duty applications such as pumps and conveyors while maintaining IC411 insulation and Exdbeb protection.
Yes. It features Exdbeb flameproof protection, IP55 enclosure, IC411 insulation, and a rugged cast-iron frame (160) designed for harsh, dusty, and high-temperature environments. Gas group IIB and 1000 m altitude operating limits further support safe operation in chemical processing, mining, and related industries.
The motor complies with IEC 60034-1, IP55 rating, IC411 insulation, Exdbeb explosion protection, and FAG/NDE bearing standards such as 6309/C3. It also references the Finland (FI) origin and Customs Tariff Code 85015220, aiding regulatory and import documentation.
The IE3 efficiency class reduces energy costs over the motor’s life, while Exdbeb protection and IP55 enclosure decrease downtime from exposure and contamination. IMB3/IM1001 mounting simplifies retrofits and service, and robust bearings (6309/C3) plus a cast-iron frame extend service intervals, delivering a favorable total cost of ownership in hazardous-area processes.
