FAQs
This motor is designed for IMB3/IM1001 mounting with frame size 315 and a D connection. It operates at 400 V, 50 Hz, 2 poles, delivering 160 kW with IP55 protection and Exdbeb explosion protection for gas group IIB. For installation, follow flameproof enclosure guidelines, use certified flameproof cable glands, and verify altitude below 1000 m to maintain cooling and performance.
At 50 Hz, the motor delivers 160 kW with IE3 efficiency around 95.6% at full load; at 60 Hz, efficiency remains IE3-rated with typical full-load values near 95.4%. Partial-load figures stay in the mid-90s, confirming stable performance across common industrial frequencies. It is a 2-pole, 400 V machine designed for continuous S1 duty.
Yes. The ABB 3GKP311240-ADL is specified for IMB3 IM1001 mounting and uses a 315 frame. This compatibility reduces installation complexity and simplifies future maintenance, enabling quick field service and consistent alignment with standard ABB mounting kits and enclosures.
Key certifications include IP55 enclosure protection for dust and water ingress, Exdbeb explosion protection for gas group IIB, and rigorous insulation classification (IC411). These markings support compliance in hazardous zones and help simplify regulatory documentation for plant audits and safety programs.
IE3 premium efficiency reduces running energy costs, delivering lower operating expenses over the motor’s life. The flameproof Ex protection plus robust mounting minimize unplanned downtime in hazardous environments, lowering maintenance and replacement costs. Combined, these factors translate to a faster payback period and safer, more reliable plant operation.
