Flameproof Ex protection and IP55 enclosure guard against dust and water ingress, reducing ignition risk and costly downtime in harsh environments. This enhances safety and uptime across chemical, oil & gas, and mining applications while supporting regulatory compliance. IE3 premium efficiency lowers energy consumption, translating into tangible operating cost reductions and improved sustainability metrics for continuous-duty pumps and fans operating at 50 Hz. The 132 kW output, 4-pole design, and 500 V nominal voltage provide reliable full-load performance with stable torque characteristics in S1 duty, benefitting process control and drive trains with minimal ripple. Frame size 315 in a robust cast-iron housing delivers vibration resistance and longevity, simplifying maintenance planning. Exdbeb flameproof protection and Gas Group IIB certification enable safe implementation in hazardous zones, reducing project risk during expansion or retrofit. IMB5 IM3001 mounting compatibility and Y-connection configuration streamline installation and serviceability, promoting faster commissioning and lower total cost of ownership. Compatible with 1000 m altitude and 40 °C ambient conditions, this motor supports widespread industrial deployments while meeting IC411 insulation standards for demanding environments.

FAQs
For safe installation in hazardous zones, use Exdbeb flameproof protection guidelines and mount the unit with IMB5/IM3001 compatible hardware. The motor supports Y connection, frame size 315, and D-end top terminator box location, which aligns with common hazardous-area baseplates and allows straightforward commissioning in 1000 m altitude and 40 °C ambient environments.
At 50 Hz and 500 V, the motor delivers 132 kW output with four poles and IE3 efficiency. Full-load efficiency is around 95.6% at 100% load, with strong partial-load performance (75% and 50%). This enables stable torque and reduced energy consumption in continuous S1 duty applications such as pumps and conveyors in hazardous facilities.
Yes. The motor is rated Exdbeb flameproof and designed for Gas Group IIB, IP55 enclosure, and insulation class ICFL, providing robust protection in hazardous atmospheres. These features help prevent ignition under normal operating conditions and during transient events, aiding regulatory compliance and worker safety.
The motor uses a 315 frame with Cast Iron construction and a weight around 1,019 kg (net). It supports IMB5/IM3001 mounting and a D-End top terminator box, enabling straightforward integration into existing bases and standard motor footprints. Compatible dimensions (1204 mm length, 858 mm height, 590 mm width) help ensure retrofit feasibility with minimal structural adjustments.
The combination of IE3 efficiency and flameproof protection yields measurable energy savings and safer operation, reducing total cost of ownership over the motor’s life. Durable cast-iron construction, IP55 protection, and reliable bearings support long service life with lower maintenance frequency, making it a compelling choice for ongoing process reliability and uptime in hazardous industrial settings.
