Flameproof Exdbeb protection reduces ignition risk in IIB gas environments, enabling safe operation in hazardous zones and lowering the likelihood of costly plant shutdowns. This translates to improved uptime and regulatory compliance for chemical processing, oil and gas, and mining applications. IE3 Premium Efficiency delivers measurable energy savings at full and part load, translating to lower operating costs and a stronger return on investment over the motor’s service life. The rugged cast iron frame size 180, combined with 6310/C3 bearings and IMB3/IM1001 mounting, provides long service life and easier maintenance in tough production environments. IP55 enclosure and IC411 insulation class support reliable performance under 40 °C ambient and up to 1000 m altitude, reducing thermal stress and downtime. The D connection configuration and 500 V, 50 Hz supply offer flexible field wiring and straightforward commissioning, while Exdbeb and Gas Group IIB certification address critical safety and regulatory standards. Overall, the motor’s robust design minimizes spare-part requirements and supports predictable asset performance in hazardous-area operations.

FAQs
For safe, code-compliant installation in hazardous areas, follow the IMB3/IM1001 mounting guidelines and use the top-placed terminal box. Employ a D (Delta/Star) connection configuration suitable for 500 V supply, ensure IP55 sealing, and observe the 40 °C ambient limit and 1000 m altitude. Verify Exdbeb protection and gas group IIB compatibility during commissioning to minimize ignition risks and downtime.
The motor delivers 15 kW at 500 V and 50 Hz with IE3 premium efficiency. It features a 6-pole design in a 180 frame, IP55 enclosure, and Exdbeb flameproof protection, making it suitable for continuous S1 duty in hazardous environments. The direction of rotation is bidirectional, and the nominal insulation class is ICLF, supporting reliable operation at elevated ambient temperatures.
Ideal for chemical plants, oil and gas facilities, and mining operations where explosion protection is mandatory. Its flameproof Exdbeb certification and IP55 enclosure provide compliance in Zone IIB environments, while the IE3 efficiency reduces energy costs in continuous operation. The motor’s robust construction supports long service life in harsh industrial settings and aligns with standard industry maintenance practices.
Key standards include IEC 60034-1 for electrical performance and reliability, IP55 for enclosure protection, and Exdbeb flameproof protection for hazardous locations. The unit also carries Gas Group IIB classification and IEC 60034-1 compliant efficiency (IE3). The design supports IMB3/IM1001 mounting and complies with typical European and global motor safety requirements.
IE3 premium efficiency lowers energy consumption across duty cycles, delivering ongoing cost savings. The rugged cast-iron frame, sealed IP55 enclosure, and Exdbeb flameproof protection reduce maintenance needs and spare parts, improving uptime.
