ABB 3GKP312230-BEK Flameproof IE3 Motor - Exdbeb

Ex protection and a rugged IP55 flameproof enclosure are not just regulatory boxes; they translate directly into safer operation in hazardous zones such as chemical plants, refineries, and mining sites. The Exdbeb certification, combined with IIB gas group protection, supports ATEX/IECEx compliance while simplifying validation during audits and commissioning. This combination reduces ignition risk, protects personnel, and lowers insurance and downtime costs over the motor’s life. IE3 premium efficiency is more than a label; it drives real operating-cost savings for high-load fans, pumps, and compressors. The measured IE3 performance at 50 Hz—Full Load 95.4%, Partial Load 75% 95.7%, and 50% 95.2%—helps optimize drive sizing and reduce energy waste in continuous S1 duty. In practice, plants see lower kW-h consumption and a smaller carbon footprint. 4-pole design delivers stable torque and reliable start-up for demanding mechanical loads, while the 110 kW rating supports higher throughput without oversizing. A robust cast-iron frame (315) with bearings 6319/C3 and IMB5/IM3001 mounting provides long service life, resistance to misalignment, and straightforward retrofits into existing installations. Installation versatility is enhanced by D-configuration wiring and a 500 V supply, enabling seamless integration with modern plant electrification. Frame 315, product net weight over a ton, and the compact 1204 × 858 × 590 mm footprint establish predictable fit in electrical rooms and on equipment skids, while 40 °C ambient and 1000 m altitude ratings ensure consistent performance across sites. From a maintenance and ROI perspective, the combination of Ex protection, rugged mechanicals, and high IE3 efficiency supports longer intervals between service and lower overall cost of ownership. This makes ABB’s 3GKP312230-BEK a practical choice for safety-conscious, efficiency-driven industrial operations.
