Exdbeb flameproof protection and IP55 enclosure integrate safety and reliability for hazardous-area operation, enabling compliant continuous duty in chemical and oil/gas environments with minimal risk. This translates to reduced downtime and safer maintenance, while the robust cast iron frame supports heavy loads and long service life in challenging plants. The IE4 efficiency rating delivers lower electrical losses, contributing to measurable energy cost savings over the motor’s lifecycle in S1 duty and 400 V drive systems. Frame 315, 4-pole construction, and IC411 insulation provide proven compatibility with standard ABB drive trains and engineering practices, simplifying procurement and installation across new builds or plant revamps. With IMB5/IM3001 mounting and D-end top terminal box, installation is streamlined, improving accessibility for routine service and field upgrades.

FAQs
For hazardous environments, the 3GKP312240-BDM features Exdbeb explosion protection and an IP55 enclosure, supporting safe operation in ATEX/IECEx-like conditions. Its mounting options include IMB5/IM3001 configurations with a D-End top terminal box, facilitating straightforward installation on heavy loads. The frame 315 size and 4-pole design suit steady, continuous operation at 400 V and 50 Hz across industrial plants.
This motor delivers 132 kW output at 400 V and 50 Hz, with 4 poles and IE4 efficiency. It is rated for S1 continuous duty and IP55 protection, with IC411 insulation. The model is designed for 1000 m altitude and 40 °C ambient temperature, ensuring reliable performance in demanding environments while maintaining compatibility with standard ABB drive systems.
Yes. The ABB 3GKP312240-BDM uses Exdbeb explosion protection and carries an IP55 enclosure rating, suitable for hazardous locations. It is coupled with robust insulation (ICLF) and IE4 efficiency, meeting stringent performance and safety requirements for hazardous area applications in industries such as chemical processing, oil and gas, and mining.
IE4 efficiency reduces electrical losses across load conditions, lowering operating costs and heat generation. For this 132 kW motor at 50 Hz, full-load efficiency is reported around 96.4%, with similar performance at 60 Hz. In practice, IE4 can lower energy consumption in continuous-duty applications and enable smaller cooling capacity needs, delivering faster ROI in plant retrofits or new installations.
Key lifecycle considerations include robust bearings (6319/C3 and 6316/C3) and solid mechanical design (cast iron frame, IMB5/IM3001 mounting). The heavy 1081–1101 kg package requires proper lifting and alignment tooling. Regular inspection of bearing condition, seal integrity, and terminal connections is advised, along with routine checks of the IMB5 mounting and D-end box to sustain peak reliability in demanding environments.
