FAQs
Yes. The motor features Exdbeb flameproof protection and an IP55 enclosure designed for hazardous zones. It uses a rugged cast-iron frame with IMB3/IM1001 mounting compatibility, optimizing fitment in flameproof housings and facilitating safe retrofits in chemical plants, refineries, and mining facilities.
The motor provides 18.5 kW continuous output at 500 V and 50 Hz with a 6-pole design. It uses connection configuration D and is built for a 40 °C ambient up to 1000 m. For best results, follow the standard 500 V delta/wye commissioning guidelines and ensure proper cooling and ventilation in the enclosure.
Industries such as chemical processing, oil and gas, mining, and heavy manufacturing benefit most. Typical applications include conveyors, pumps, and fans operating in hazardous areas where flameproof protection, reliability, and energy efficiency are critical for safe, compliant, and cost-effective operation.
The motor complies with IEC 60034-1 and offers Ex protection (Exdbeb) for hazardous environments, IP55 enclosure protection, and ICFL insulation. It is rated IE3 for premium efficiency and supports gas-group IIB operation, with a duty class of S1 and a 40 °C ambient temperature rating.
Energy savings from IE3 efficiency reduce operating costs, while Ex protection and IP55 enclosure decrease maintenance and downtime in dirty or explosive environments. The robust cast-iron frame and reliable IMB3/IM1001 mounting simplify installation, spare parts planning, and long-term reliability, delivering faster payback in regulated industries.
