Flameproof Exde protection with Exdbeb ignition protection is built into the 3GKP183410-BSL to prevent ignition sources from igniting hazardous atmospheres. This reduces risk to personnel and equipment while simplifying compliance with ATEX/IECEx and IEC 60034-1 safety requirements. Application: oil and gas processing, petrochemical plants, and mining sites where robust safety barriers are mandatory. IE3 Premium Efficiency at 15 kW with 400 V supply and star connection delivers energy efficiency across steady and variable loads. This lowers electricity costs, reduces heat generation, and extends motor life due to cooler operation. Application: conveyors, pumps, fans, and mixers in chemical plants and refineries seeking sustainable operation. IP55 enclosure, ICFL insulation, and a rugged cast-iron frame provide superior protection against dust, water, and thermal stress, yielding longer service intervals and lower maintenance spend. Application: harsh production floors and outdoor installations where reliability matters. IMB5/IM3001 mounting compatibility and a Top terminator box location enable faster commissioning, simplified wiring, and flexible installation in constrained electrical rooms. Application: retrofit projects and new builds in refineries, processing plants, and heavy industry. Six-pole design, frame size 180, 826 mm length, 282 kg net weight, and Exde protection for IIB gas groups offer predictable starting torque, consistent performance, and straightforward spare-part planning. Application: hazardous environments requiring robust mechanical resilience and strict regulatory compliance.

FAQs
Install with a Y (star) configuration at 400 V and 50 Hz, ensuring the motor mounts on IMB5/IM3001 bases and uses the Top terminator box location for wiring. Verify IP55 protection, Exde/Exdbeb flameproof ratings, and the 6-pole frame size 180. Check ambient temperature (up to 40 °C) and altitude (up to 1000 m) to maintain performance and warranty terms.
Yes. The motor features Exdbeb flameproof protection with Exde classification, suitable for IIB gas groups. It complies with IEC 60034-1 and is designed for safe operation in hazardous environments, helping meet ATEX/IECEx standards and reducing risk in oil, gas, and chemical processing facilities.
The motor is rated IE3 Premium Efficiency, which delivers high efficiency under full and partial loads. Full-load efficiency is around 91% in typical 50 Hz operation, reducing energy consumption, lowering operating costs, and decreasing heat losses, contributing to improved plant reliability and sustainability over the motor’s lifecycle.
Key specs include a 15 kW output, 400 V, 50 Hz, 6 poles, frame 180, IP55 enclosure, cast-iron frame, and bearing specification 6310/C3. Mounting is compatible with IMB5/IM3001, and a Top terminator box location eases wiring. These features help with compact installation and straightforward retrofits in existing plants.
Expect longer maintenance intervals due to IP55 protection, ICFL insulation, and a robust cast-iron frame. Bearing arrangement 6310/C3 supports durable operation, while IMB5/IM3001 mounting simplifies spare-parts management. The flameproof Exde/Exdbeb protection reduces ignition-related downtime, contributing to lower lifecycle costs in hazardous environments.
