Exde flameproof protection and IP55 enclosure provide safe operation in hazardous environments, reducing risk and enabling compliant installations in chemical and oil & gas facilities. This translates to lower downtime and insurance costs, while enabling reliable operation in zones with explosion risk. 18.5 kW output at 400 V and 50 Hz, in an 8-pole design, supports robust torque delivery for conveyors and pumps with standard wiring in star configuration. The premium IE3 efficiency lowers energy bills and thermal load, improving overall plant energy management and enabling cooler, more stable operation under partial-load conditions. Cast-iron frame, IMB3/IM1001 mounting, and top-entry termination simplify installation, maintenance, and service life in tight, harsh spaces. Duty is S1, suitable for continuous operation with durable bearings (6313/C3). Compliance and performance are reinforced by IC411 insulation and a robust enclosure that withstands 40 °C ambient and up to 1000 m altitude. Gas Group IIB and EX-Protection Exdbeb reinforce safety in petrochemical environments, while a 225 frame size supports stable dynamic performance in heavy-duty duties.

FAQs
This motor is Exdbeb flameproof class with IP55 protection, designed for hazardous zones. It supports IMB3 IM1001 mounting and top-entry termination, making installation straightforward in confined spaces. Connectors are configured for a 400 V, 50 Hz supply in a Y (star) configuration, and ensure proper cooling and clearance per standard installation practices for flameproof equipment.
The motor delivers 18.5 kW at 400 V and 50 Hz with 8 poles. It uses IE3 premium efficiency and has full-load efficiency around 90.1–90.4% at 100% load, with values remaining high at 75% and 50% loads. It is a 3-phase squirrel cage design intended for continuous service (S1) and is rated for indoor ambient up to 40 °C and altitude up to 1000 m.
Yes. The motor is specified with IMB3 IM1001 mounting and a top terminator box, optimized for easy installation in hazardous environments. Frame size 225 with a cast-iron construction offers rigidity and vibration damping suitable for heavy-duty applications like pumps and conveyors, while maintaining safe operation in explosion-protected areas.
Key certifications and standards include Exdbeb flameproof protection for explosive atmospheres, IP55 enclosure rating for dust and water ingress protection, and IC411 insulation class. Gas Group IIB applies to hazardous zones, with a surface-mounted terminal box configuration suitable for safe, compliant operation in chemical and petrochemical facilities.
IE3 efficiency reduces electrical losses, delivering lower energy consumption and cooler running temperatures, which translates to lower operating costs and reduced cooling requirements in continuous duty. Over the motor’s lifetime, this improved efficiency can yield substantial energy savings, offsetting upfront costs, especially in plants with high duty cycles and frequent start/stop cycles.
