Flameproof protection paired with Exdbeb certification ensures safe operation in hazardous zones, reducing the risk of ignition and enabling ongoing compliance with rigorous safety standards. This directly translates to minimized downtime and lower insurance costs, especially in chemical processing and oil & gas facilities where reliability is non-negotiable. The 22 kW IE3 premium-efficiency profile delivers measurable energy savings across full and partial load conditions, helping facilities lower utility spend without sacrificing performance. In practice, full-load efficiency numbers around 90.6% at 100% and over 90% at mid-loads translate to meaningful annual cost reductions in interstate and multinational plants. The robust 8-pole design provides stable torque characteristics for demanding belt and pump systems, reducing vibration and extending bearing life.

FAQs
Key installation factors include the IMB3 mounting standard and IMB1001 compatibility, the Y-connection configuration for 400 V operation at 50 Hz, and the top-placed terminator box for easy service access. Plan for mounting the 225 frame on a solid base, account for up to 1000 m altitude and 40 °C ambient, and ensure IP55 protection is maintained in dusty or damp environments.
Yes. The 3GKP224220-ASK features Exdbeb flameproof protection and IIB gas group specifications, designed for hazardous-area applications. It carries the IE3 efficiency class and IP55 enclosure, supporting compliance with ATEX/IECEx directives and other global standards for explosive atmospheres.
IE3 premium efficiency in this 22 kW motor translates to lower energy consumption across full and partial loads. Reported data show Full Load (100%) efficiency around 90.6% at 50 Hz, with higher efficiency at 75% and 50% loads. For plants running pumps or fans with variable demand, this reduces operating costs and improves overall equipment effectiveness (OEE).
This motor is ideal for hazardous-area drives such as pumps, fans, conveyors, and compressors in chemical processing, oil and gas, mining, and petrochemical facilities. The combination of flameproof protection, IP55 enclosure, and robust IMB3/IM1001 mounting supports reliable operation in demanding environments while enabling straightforward integration with standard 400 V, 50 Hz power systems.
Plan for bearing maintenance with the specified 6313/C3 and 6312/C3 bearings, regular inspection of the IP55 enclosure seals, and periodic checks of the Exdbeb flameproof integrity. The motor’s IMB3 mounting and top-terminator box design simplify service. Given Finland-origin build and cast-iron frame (225), expect durable operation with lower downtime in continuous-running S1 duty scenarios.
