FAQs
Plan for a compliant hazardous-area installation by using the Exdbeb flameproof protection, IP55 enclosure, and IC411 insulation. Ensure proper star (Y) connection to 500 V, 50 Hz supply, and support from a rigid IMB3/IM1001 mounting scheme. Confirm ambient conditions do not exceed 40 °C and altitude limits around 1000 m to maintain performance.
The motor delivers 75 kW at 500 V and 50 Hz with a 2-pole configuration. It is classified IE3 for premium efficiency, rated for continuous S1 duty, and features a star connection suitable for standard 500 V industrial power systems in hazardous environments.
Ideal for chemical processing, oil and gas facilities, mining, and other plants with flammable atmospheres. Its flameproof Exdbeb protection and IP55 enclosure make it well-suited for conveyors, pumps, and fans operating in hazardous locations where safety, reliability, and energy efficiency are critical.
It features Exdbeb flameproof protection, Gas Group IIB protection, IP55 enclosure, and IC411 insulation. These protections support compliance with ATEX and IECEx hazardous-area standards, enabling safe operation in demanding environments.
Premium IE3 efficiency lowers energy costs over the motor’s life, while a robust cast-iron frame and bearings (6316/C3) reduce wear and replacement needs. The 2-pole design and IMB3/IM1001 mounting simplify retrofits and new installations, delivering reduced downtime and predictable maintenance cycles.
