FAQs
This motor is designed for IMB3/IM1001 mounting with a top terminator box and 8-pole configuration. It uses a 400 V, 50 Hz supply, D connection, and IP55 protection, enabling straightforward retrofit into existing frames. The robust cast-iron frame supports easy alignment and secure mounting in demanding environments, reducing installation time and risk.
Key specs include 5.5 kW output, 400 V input, 50 Hz frequency, 8 poles, D connection, and IP55 protection. Insulation class is ICFL, voltage code D, duty S1, and IC411 insulation class. The motor is Ex protection Exdbeb with Gas Group IIB and Temperature Class T4, suitable for hazardous-area operation.
Yes. The 3GKP164420-ADK features Exdbeb flameproof protection with Exde motor design intent, IP55 enclosure, and Gas Group IIB protection, making it appropriate for hazardous locations in chemical, oil, and mining environments while maintaining robust performance at 400 V.
IE3 premium efficiency reduces energy consumption and heat generation, lowering cooling load and wear. With a cast-iron frame, high-quality bearings (6309/C3), and a durable IMB3/IM1001 mounting, the motor offers longer service intervals and reduced maintenance costs, translating to lower lifecycle costs in continuous or mission-critical operations.
IE3 efficiency translates to noticeable energy savings at 400 V, 50 Hz across full and partial loads (full-load efficiency around 86% in 50 Hz data). Coupled with lower cooling needs and reliable operation, facilities typically realize faster payback, especially when combined with VFD control and optimized duty cycles for pumps and fans.
