FAQs
This motor utilizes a Y (star) connection for 400 V operation, with a 2-pole configuration and frame size 250. It features IP55 protection, IMB5/IM3001 mounting, and a top terminator box location. For installation planning, accommodate the 895 mm x 683 mm x 482 mm footprint and an approximate net weight of 509 kg. Ensure service access for maintenance and torque-limited connections at altitude up to 1000 m.
Key certifications include Ex protection class Exdbeb for hazardous environments, IP55 enclosure protection, IC411 insulation, and IEC 60034-1 for electrical performance. The motor is suitable for Gas Group IIB atmospheres and complies with ATEX/IECEx expectations, supporting safe operation in chemical and petrochemical facilities as well as other regulated industries.
Yes. The Exdbeb flameproof protection, IP55 enclosure, and 2-pole IE3 design are tailored for hazardous-area drives. With a 55 kW output at 400 V and 50 Hz, it provides robust torque with reliable cooling, complying with industry safety standards and supporting ongoing process operation in chemical processing plants.
At 50 Hz, the motor has IE3 class efficiency with full-load performance around 94.3%. Partial-load values at 75% and 50% load are around 94.4% and 93.8% respectively, indicating strong efficiency across duty points. The 2-pole design yields optimal speed and torque for continuous-process drives.
Durability is supported by a cast-iron frame (size 250) and robust bearings (6315/C3 and 6313/C3). The IMB5/IM3001 mounting simplifies installation and service, while the Ex protection reduces risk in hazardous environments.
