FAQs
The 3GKP311230-BEK uses a D connection configuration and is designed for 3-phase, 50 Hz operation at 500 V. It supports IMB5/IM3001 mounting and a 315 frame, with a 2-pole, 132 kW output. For retrofit projects, verify space for the cast-iron frame and ensure correct terminal box orientation (D-End top) to simplify wiring and commissioning.
At 50 Hz, the motor delivers 132 kW of output power with an IE3 premium efficiency rating. The efficiency data shows Full Load performance around 95.4%, with acceptable partial-load efficiency in the mid-90s range. It operates at 500 V with a 2-pole arrangement, ensuring robust torque for starting and running heavy loads in demanding applications.
Yes. The motor carries Exdbeb flameproof protection and an IP55 enclosure, making it suitable for hazardous zones with gas groups IIB and related safety requirements. Its insulation class is ICLF, and it is designed for S1 duty in ambient conditions up to 40 °C and 1000 m altitude. Always verify local ATEX/IECEx certifications and site-specific installation standards.
The motor includes Exdbeb flameproof protection and IE3 efficiency, IP55 protection, and a robust IC411 insulation class. It also lists 2-pole operation, IMB5/IM3001 mounting, and a 315 frame with a cast-iron housing. These features support safe operation in hazardous environments while meeting energy performance and mechanical robustness expectations.
With a cast-iron frame and robust bearings (6316/C3), maintenance intervals are typically longer under standard conditions, reducing downtime. The IE3 efficiency improves energy cost savings over the motor’s life. In hazardous environments, Ex protection reduces risk of ignition-related downtime, while IP55 sealing minimizes dust ingress and moisture-related wear.
