Flameproof Exdbeb protection → Improves safety and regulatory compliance in hazardous areas, reducing risk for personnel and equipment while enabling compliant operation in ATEX/IECEx zones. This translates to fewer shutdowns and a smoother permit-to-production cycle in chemical plants and refineries. Application: chemical processing, oil & gas facilities, mining operations. IE3 45 kW at 500 V 50 Hz → Delivers meaningful energy savings and lower operating costs over the motor’s lifecycle, improving overall plant efficiency. Application: pumps, fans, compressors across heavy-duty processes. IP55 enclosure and IC411 insulation → Ensures reliability in dusty, humid environments with extended service life, minimizing maintenance intervals. Application: cement, metals, and material-handling systems. Cast-iron frame 280 with 8 poles → Enhances mechanical durability and torque characteristics for high-load tasks, reducing downtime. Application: conveyors, mixers, and crushers. IMB5 IM3001 mounting and D connection → Simplifies installation and improves compatibility with existing drive systems and safety standards. Application: retrofit projects and new installations in hazardous zones. Altitude 1000 m and ambient 40 °C → Keeps performance stable in elevated plants and hot environments, reducing derating and facilitating global installations. Application: mining camps, remote processing facilities. Designed for easy integration with standard drive systems and repairs, lowering total cost of ownership while delivering robust, long-life operation.

FAQs
Plan for ATEX/IECEx compliance by selecting Ex-rated equipment and ensuring correct zoning. Use IMB5/IM3001 mounting and a top-entry terminator box for safe enclosure access. Connect to a 500 V, 50 Hz supply with proper cable sizing and protective routing. Ensure ambient temperature does not exceed 40 °C and maintain IP55 protection during service intervals.
The 8-pole design yields suitable speed-torque characteristics for heavy-duty loads, while IE3 efficiency reduces energy consumption in continuous duty. The frame 280 with cast-iron construction provides durability in tough environments, and the Exdbeb flameproof protection ensures safe operation in hazardous zones without sacrificing performance.
Yes. The motor’s flameproof Exdbeb protection, IP55 enclosure, and IC411 insulation class are specifically chosen for hazardous-area applications. Its 45 kW rating at 500 V and robust mounting options support reliable operation in mining, chemical processing, and related industries, while maintaining energy efficiency and long service life.
The motor supports Ex flameproof protection (Exdbeb), IP55 ingress protection, and IC411 insulation. It is designed for use in hazardous zones and is compatible with ATEX/IECEx regulatory expectations. The 500 V, 50 Hz supply compatibility and IMB5/IM3001 mounting further support compliant integration with plant electrical systems.
Energy savings from IE3 efficiency reduce energy costs in continuous operation, while a robust cast-iron frame lowers downtime and maintenance needs. Bearings (6316/C3) and IP55 protection mean less frequent servicing in dusty or humid environments. Regular bearing inspections and seal checks, combined with standard drive maintenance, help maximize uptime and long-term value.
