Flameproof IE3 premium efficiency is a core feature, delivering energy savings and safer operation in hazardous environments, which translates to lower operating costs and reduced carbon footprint in chemical plants and refineries. The IP55 enclosure and Exdbeb protection provide robust ingress protection and gas-explosion safety for IIB-rated atmospheres, minimizing risk of catastrophic failures in mining and oil & gas facilities. The 37 kW, 400 V, 50 Hz rating paired with 6 poles and a frame size 250 ensures compatibility with standard global electrical infrastructure, simplifying procurement and installation. The Y connection, IC411 insulation class, and temperature class default to T4, enabling reliable performance at ambient temperatures up to 40°C and altitudes up to 1000 meters. IMB3/IM1001 mounting supports straightforward retrofits into existing IMB3-compatible systems. The cast-iron frame and heavy-duty bearings (6315/C3, 6313/C3) enhance durability in demanding environments, while the top terminator box location streamlines cable routing and service access. This combination reduces maintenance downtime, accelerates commissioning, and supports long-term spare-parts planning for industrial facilities. Overall, the motor aligns with IEC standards and industry best practices, ensuring consistent compliance and reduced total cost of ownership in high-risk sectors.

FAQs
For safe, reliable installation in hazardous environments, ensure Exdbeb flameproof protection is retained, connect via the Y configuration, and mount using IMB3/IM1001 standards. Place the motor on a stable, vibration-free base, with top access to the terminator box for easy wiring. Allow adequate clearance for ventilation, routine inspection, and potential heat dissipation, following IEC 60034-1 guidelines.
IE3 efficiency indicates higher energy conversion efficiency at full and partial loads, reducing electricity consumption compared with lower-rated motors. In demanding continuous-duty service (S1) at 37 kW and 400 V, the improved efficiency lowers running costs, shortens payback periods, and can improve overall plant energy performance when multiple motors operate in parallel or during peak demand periods.
Yes. The 3GKP253210-ASL is designed for hazardous areas with Ex protection Exdbeb and Gas Group IIB, complemented by an IP55 enclosure. This combination provides flameproof integrity and protection against dust and water ingress, enabling safe operation in oil, gas, and chemical processing environments while maintaining compliance with IEC 60034-1 and related standards.
Key maintenance points include monitoring the 6315/C3 and 6313/C3 bearings for wear, ensuring proper lubrication intervals, and inspecting the cast-iron frame for stress or corrosion. Schedule routine checks on the top-terminated box connections and verify IP55 seals. Maintain a parts inventory for the IMB3/IM1001 mounting configuration and plan for spare parts aligned with the WEEE and safety requirements.
Integration is straightforward with the Y connection and standard 400 V, 50 Hz power supply. Compatible with IMB3/IM1001 mounting and IEC 60034-1 compliance, the motor can be paired with variable frequency drives for precise speed control in S1 duty. Verify footprint, shaft alignment, and coupling to existing systems, and ensure protective measures for Ex-rated installations are preserved during retrofit.
