FAQs
This motor is designed for hazardous-area duties in mining, oil and gas, and chemical processing. It is a 37 kW, two-pole, 500 V, 50 Hz machine with Exde/Exdbeb flameproof protection and an IP55 enclosure, making it well-suited for continuous S1 service in tough environments. Ideal for retrofits or new installations where safety and efficiency are priorities.
It uses a 2-pole design with frame size 200 and IMB5/IM3001 mounting, enabling straightforward integration with common plant layouts. The connection configuration is listed as D, and the top terminator box facilitates convenient wiring. Suitable for installations up to 1000 m altitude and ambient temperatures around 40 °C, this motor suits standard 500 V electrical infrastructures.
It adheres to IEC 60034-1 for electrical equipment in rotating machines, with an IP55 enclosure, and offers Ex protection (Exdbeb, Exde) for hazardous zones. The insulation class is ICLF, and the motor is rated for S1 duty, making it compliant with industry safety and efficiency expectations in demanding environments.
Yes. The motor’s design aligns with ABB control ecosystems, including compatibility with premium IE3 efficiency standards and 500 V power networks. Its mounting and connection options simplify integration with ABB VFDs and PLC-based control schemes, enabling coordinated performance, diagnostic feedback, and optimized automation workflows.
