FAQs
Plan for IMB3/IM1001 mounting and use of a top-terminated box as specified. Ensure Ex protection (Exdbeb) and IP55 enclosure are maintained, and verify the D connection configuration for correct wiring at 500 V and 50 Hz. Confirm altitude and ambient conditions (1000 m, up to 40 °C) are within limits to sustain rated performance.
The motor provides 45 kW output, 4 poles, frame size 225, 500 V input at 50 Hz, and IE3 efficiency. It features Exdbeb flameproof protection, IP55 enclosure, IC411 insulation class, and a 4-pole design with IMB3/IM1001 mounting suitable for robust, continuous operation in demanding environments.
Yes. It carries Exdbeb flameproof protection with gas group IIB, designed for hazardous atmospheres and compliant with IEC 60034-1 style standards. Always validate site-specific ATEX/IECEx applicability and follow installation guidelines for safe operation.
With a cast iron frame, precision bearings (6313/C3 and 6312/C3), and a rugged IMB3/IM1001 mounting footprint, the motor is built for durability. The IP55 enclosure protects against dust and moisture, reducing maintenance frequency, while the ambient and altitude ratings support stable operation in challenging sites.
IE3 premium efficiency reduces energy consumption at full and partial loads, improving heat management and lowering running costs. This supports regulatory expectations for energy efficiency in industrial motors and can contribute to lower total cost of ownership when paired with reliable flameproof protection for hazardous-area applications.
