Exdbeb flameproof protection provides a robust barrier against ignition sources, reducing risk and supporting regulatory compliance in Zone IIB environments. This protection minimizes downtime from ignition-related faults, enabling safer operation in chemical processing, oil and gas, and mining applications. IE3 premium efficiency yields meaningful energy savings: full-load efficiency at 50 Hz is 94.6%, with 75% load at 94.7% and 50% load at 94.0%; at 60 Hz, full-load efficiency is 95.4%, with 75% load at 95.2% and 50% load at 94.1%. The result is lower operating costs and cooler equipment temperatures in enclosed plant spaces. IP55 enclosure combined with IC411 insulation supports reliable performance up to 40 °C ambient and 1000 m altitude, ensuring steady output in challenging environments. The cast iron frame size 250 delivers mechanical robustness, while bearings 6315/C3 and 6313/C3 support long service life under continuous duty (S1) and IMB3/IM1001 mounting. Top terminator box placement simplifies wiring and commissioning, reducing installation time. Overall, compatibility with 3-phase, 4-pole, 500 V systems makes it a versatile asset for new builds or replacements. Transport planning is aided by a documented 895 mm length, 482 mm width, and 683 mm height profile with 442 kg net weight and 452 kg gross weight, facilitating site readiness and crane allocation.

FAQs
For installation, plan around the 4-pole, 55 kW motor with frame size 250 and a top-mounted terminator box. Use the IMB3 IM1001 mounting configuration to ensure proper alignment, and allow for the 895 mm length, 482 mm width, and 683 mm height. The unit is designed for 500 V, 50/60 Hz operation and IP55 protection, aiding quick commissioning and reliable operation.
At 50 Hz, the motor provides 55 kW output with IE3 efficiency around 94.6% full load, 94.7% at 75% load, and 94.0% at 50% load. At 60 Hz, efficiency is about 95.4% full load, 95.2% at 75% load, and 94.1% at 50% load. These figures translate to lower energy costs and cooler operation in steady-state duty.
Yes. The Exdbeb flameproof protection, IP55 enclosure, and IIB gas group rating are specifically designed for hazardous-area equipment such as conveyors and pumps in chemical, oil & gas, and mining environments. Its continuous S1 duty and robust IMB3 mounting provide reliable, maintenance-friendly operation in demanding processes.
The motor carries Ex flameproof protection (Exdbeb), IP55 enclosure, and insulation to IC411 standards, with IEC 60034-1 compliance. It is suitable for IIB gas groups and has a robust cast iron frame (250). These certifications support safe operation in hazardous zones and ensure alignment with industry standards for industrial motors.
The IE3 premium efficiency class reduces energy consumption by powering the same load with less electrical input, lowering operating costs and improving heat management. Its durable cast-iron frame, sealed IP55 enclosure, and maintenance-friendly IMB3 mounting contribute to longer service intervals and lower total cost of ownership for long-term industrial use.
