FAQs
For hazardous locations, ensure Exdbeb flameproof protection is maintained, and install with the IMB5/IM3001 mounting as specified. Use a D connection configuration, 400 V 50 Hz supply, and verify IP55 protection. Confirm operation within a 1000 m altitude and up to 40 °C ambient to prevent derating, and follow manufacturer guidelines for wiring, enclosure integrity, and cooling requirements.
The motor delivers 160 kW output at 400 V, 50 Hz, with a 2-pole configuration. It offers IE3 premium efficiency, which translates to lower energy consumption during full-load and partial-load operations. Electrical data includes a flameproof Exdbeb rating and an IP55 enclosure, enabling reliable performance in harsh environments while reducing operating costs.
Yes. The ABB 3GKP311240-BDL is designed for hazardous zones with Exdbeb flameproof protection and IIB gas group ratings. It supports IP55 and insulation suitable for tougher ambient conditions, aligning with ATEX/IECEx requirements. When selecting, verify zone classification, temperature class, and installation to ensure full regulatory compliance and safe operation.
Certifications and standards include Exdbeb flameproof protection, IP55 ingress protection, IC411 insulation, and IE3 efficiency class. The motor is configured for a 2-pole, frame 315 with IMB5/IM3001 mounting, and is designed for operation in demanding environments such as chemical processing, mining, and oil & gas facilities.
Benefits stem from IE3 efficiency reducing energy costs over the motor’s lifecycle, and the robust cast iron frame with IMB5/IM3001 mounting ensuring long-term reliability. The flameproof protection and IP55 rating lower the frequency of protective rectifications, while the high-quality bearings (6316/C3) and sealed design minimize maintenance downtime and extend service intervals, improving overall return on investment in hazardous-area applications.
