FAQs
For ATEX/IECEx installations, ensure Exdbeb flameproof protection is verified for your specific zone, connect via the D configuration, and mount using IMB3/IM1001 standards. Confirm enclosure IP55 against dust and moisture, and maintain ambient limits (up to 40 °C, altitude up to 1000 m) to prevent derating. Use appropriate cables and sealing to preserve explosion protection and ensure safe, compliant commissioning.
Exdbeb protection provides flameproof enclosure that can withstand internal arcing and surface heat without igniting surrounding flammable atmospheres. This is essential in oil & gas, petrochemical, and mining applications where process fluids, hydrocarbons, or powders pose ignition risks. Coupled with IP55, it delivers a robust barrier against dust and water ingress, supporting compliant and safe operation.
The motor is designed for 500 V input at 50 Hz, delivering 110 kW with a 2-pole configuration. It supports S1 duty (continuous operation) and provides Full Load efficiency consistent with IE3 class ratings. Plan for proper circuit protection, correct starter or VFD compatibility, and adequate cooling to sustain performance at 40 °C ambient.
Yes. The motor is specified for IMB3 IM1001 mounting with a Frame Size 315 and Cast Iron frame material, which simplifies installation in new builds or retrofits. This compatibility enables straightforward alignment with common baselines in heavy industry and ensures secure, vibration-resistant operation in demanding environments.
IE3 premium efficiency reduces energy consumption, contributing to lower operating costs, cooler equipment, and extended motor life. In continuous-duty applications, you can expect measurable reductions in electricity bills and heat generation, which translates to lower cooling loads and improved process stability, especially in facilities with stringent regulatory and safety requirements.
