FAQs
This flameproof motor uses an IMB5/IM3001 mounting footprint and a top-termination box to simplify field wiring and mounting. It is a 4-pole, 3-phase motor rated for 400 V and 50 Hz, with Y configuration, IP55 protection, and Exdbeb flameproof protection. Ensure compatible base frame, safe hoisting for its 494 kg weight, and correct alignment for service life.
Exdbeb flameproof protection plus IIB gas group designation ensure enclosure integrity under explosive atmospheres. The IP55 rating guards against dust and water ingress, while the IC411 insulation class and 40 °C ambient limit support sustained operation. Combined with IE3 efficiency and 4-pole design, it delivers reliable torque and controlled temperature in hazardous locations.
Yes. The Ex-rated flameproof motor is well-suited for chemical processing, oil and gas, mining, power plants, and water/wastewater applications where explosive atmospheres exist. Its 55 kW rating and 400 V supply align with typical process-drive requirements, while the IMB5/IM3001 mounting enables straightforward installation in existing plant layouts. This combination makes it a drop-in solution for upgrading legacy hazardous-area equipment without major design changes.
IE3 premium efficiency reduces I²R losses in normal operation, delivering lower energy bills across continuous duty (S1). At 50 Hz the motor delivers high full-load efficiency (around 95%), which translates into meaningful life-cycle savings for pumps, fans, and conveyors in process lines, while meeting energy-usage regulations and reducing heat load on plant cooling systems.
Schedule periodic bearing checks and lubrication per manufacturer spec, monitor temperature and vibration, and verify electrical connections after installation. The motor’s 6315/C3 bearings and cast-iron frame tolerate harsh environments, while the top termination box and accessible IMB5/IM3001 mounting simplify servicing, minimizing downtime and extending service life in hazardous facilities. Regular inspection helps preserve Ex protection integrity over time.
