Flameproof Ex protection is a core feature; With Exdbeb IIB, the motor is certified for explosive atmospheres, enabling installation in hazardous area zones without extra enclosures. This reduces safety risk and simplifies procurement. Energy efficiency is a core business driver; IE4 class with measured full-load efficiency around 95% at 50 Hz, and 95.4% at 60 Hz, lowers operating costs and heat generation. A 55 kW output at 400 V 50 Hz aligns with standard industrial drives, delivering strong performance in continuous S1 duty. IP55 protection and a cast-iron frame provide ingress protection against dust and water jets, along with rugged resilience in vibration-prone plants. The 280 frame and IMB3/IM1001 compatibility simplify mounting in existing basements and switchgear assemblies; 6-pole design supports robust torque at start-up. Electrical and mechanical design supports straightforward installation: D-connection, temperature class T4, insulation ICLF, and a 1000 m altitude rating with ambient up to 40 °C. The unit is built for harsh environments and long service life, reducing downtime and spare-part churn. The motor’s hazardous-area certifications and documented performance enable compliant integration with industrial automation systems, including safety protocols and maintenance planning. This integration also supports predictive maintenance by aligning with diagnostic data from ABB drives and plant controllers. Designed for chemical, oil, mining, and other demanding sectors, it offers reliable operation and predictable ROI when paired with appropriate drive systems. The life-cycle benefits extend to BOM simplification and easier spare-part planning, improving overall plant reliability and return on asset.

FAQs

When installing this flameproof motor in hazardous zones, ensure Exdbeb IIB certification compatibility, IP55 enclosure protection, and IMB3/IM1001 mounting readiness. Use the 400 V 50 Hz supply, observe the D connection, and verify ambient conditions up to 40 °C and altitude up to 1000 m for reliable operation.
IE4 class delivers high operating efficiency, with full-load efficiency around 95.1% at 50 Hz and about 95.4% at 60 Hz. The result is lower energy consumption, reduced heat, and longer service life, especially in continuous S1 duty commonly found in process plants.
Yes. The IP55 enclosure provides protection against dust ingress and water jets, while a cast-iron frame delivers rugged resilience in vibration-heavy facilities, enabling reliable operation in harsh industrial settings.
Key certifications include Exdbeb IIB flameproof protection, the IE4 energy efficiency class, and IP55 ingress protection. These align with global standards for explosive atmospheres and help streamline safety approvals in chemical, oil and gas, and mining industries.
The motor's robust bearing design (6316/C3), cast-iron frame, and available spare parts support long service life with low maintenance. Predictive maintenance is aided by compatibility with ABB drives and plant controllers, enabling scheduled outages and improved asset uptime. This translates to lower operating costs and faster payback in aggressive process schedules.
