Exdbeb flameproof protection combined with IP55 enclosure minimizes ignition risk in ATEX zones, delivering safer operation in chemical plants, oil & gas facilities, and mining sites. This protection translates to lower maintenance intervals and safer start-up in demanding environments. IE3 premium efficiency reduces energy consumption and operating costs, particularly at full load and partial load, supporting carbon footprint reduction goals and compliance with energy regulations. The 2-pole, frame size 250 configuration enables compact footprint for retrofits and new builds, while the cast iron housing and IMB5/IM3001 mounting options simplify installation and vibration tolerance in heavy-duty applications. The 400 V, 50 Hz, Y-connection electrical setup offers straightforward integration with standard plant power distribution and motor control centers, reducing wiring complexity and commissioning time. Bearing arrangements (6315/C3) and robust 470–480 kg class ensure long service life with predictable maintenance schedules, limiting unplanned downtime. This motor’s duty class S1 and insulation (ICLF) support continuous operation in high-temperature environments up to 40 °C ambient, at altitudes up to 1000 m, with reliable mechanical performance during extended runs. The unit also benefits from Finland-origin manufacturing quality and a strong supply chain for frame 250 motors, ensuring consistent availability for critical projects in process industries.

FAQs
This motor uses Exdbeb flameproof protection and an IP55 enclosure, making it suitable for ATEX/IECEx zones when installed with proper gland sealing, torque alignment, and enclosure protection. Install with Y connection, 400 V supply at 50 Hz, and ensure the top terminator box is accessible for service. Use IMB5/IM3001 mounting to match the specified frame and torque requirements, and follow the manufacturer’s guidelines for cabling and grounding to maintain safety certificates.
The motor provides 55 kW output at 400 V, 50 Hz, 2 poles, with a constant S1 duty cycle for continuous operation. It carries IE3 efficiency, an IP55 enclosure, and Exdbeb flameproof protection, supporting reliable performance in hazardous environments such as chemical plants, oil and gas facilities, and mining operations.
Yes. It is designed for hazardous areas with Exdbeb flameproof protection, Gas Group IIB, and IP55 protection. The insulation class ICFL and IC411, along with the Ex certification, ensure safe operation in explosive atmospheres. The 2-pole design and frame 250 size further support compatibility with typical hazardous-area motor installations.
This model is well-suited for pumps, fans, and compressors in chemical processing, oil and gas production, and mining applications. The flameproof protection, robust mechanicals, and high IE3 efficiency support long, reliable service in demanding plants where safety standards and energy costs are critical considerations.
The robust cast-iron frame, bearings (6315/C3 and 6313/C3), and IMB5/IM3001 mounting design reduce wear and vibration, lowering maintenance intervals. IE3 efficiency yields meaningful energy savings across full and partial load conditions, decreasing operating costs and improving ROI in continuous-run applications typical of process industries. A predictable maintenance plan and standardized components also simplify spares provisioning and downtime planning.
