ABB 3GKP312820-BDK Motor - Flameproof IE3 Exdbeb
Part Number: 3GKP312820-BDK
Quick Summary
ABB 3GKP312820-BDK 200 kW flameproof motor powers heavy-duty process lines in hazardous areas. It is engineered to overcome common installation challenges in ATEX/IECEx zones, including safe wiring, robust protection, and reliable cooling under demanding duty cycles. Operators often struggle with maintaining uptime where explosive atmospheres prevail, and with balancing energy use against equipment life. This motor delivers explosion protection Exdbeb, IP55 enclosure, and IE3 efficiency, enabling compliant operation with reduced maintenance and lower energy costs. Its design supports 1000 m altitude and 40°C ambient, while mounting versatility (IMB5/IM3001) and a 315 frame size simplify retrofits and new installations alike. In practice, ABB’s solution translates to safer automation, longer service intervals, and lower total cost of ownership for critical processes such as oil & gas, mining, and chemical processing.

Ex protection Exdbeb delivers flameproof integrity for environments with gas group IIB. The business impact is reduced ignition risk and easier regulatory compliance in ATEX/IECEx zones. It finds application in chemical processing, oil and gas, and mining where robust protection is essential. IE3 premium efficiency at 200 kW reduces operating costs over the motor’s lifecycle. Full-load efficiency at 50 Hz is listed at 96.6%, with 75% and 50% loads also showing high residual efficiency, translating to lower electricity spend during continuous S1 duty and supporting sustainability targets. Frame Size 315 and a cast-iron housing deliver rigidity and long life in tough environments, with a 4-pole configuration yielding strong starting torque and smooth operation. Mounting flexibility and installation efficiency are aided by IMB5/IM3001 compatibility and a D-end top terminator box, simplifying retrofits and new builds and accelerating commissioning. Environmental and protection features—IP55 enclosure and IC411 insulation—ensure reliable performance at up to 1000 m altitude and 40°C ambient, while EX protection and gas group IIB support safe operation in chemical plants, refineries, and mining sites. Reliability and maintenance advantages include robust bearing arrangements (6319/C3 on the driven end and 6316/C3 on the non-driven end), a heavy-cast iron frame, and S1 duty with a single-speed operation profile. These factors minimize unplanned downtime and optimize spare-part planning within standard automation libraries.

FAQs
When installing in ATEX/IECEx zones, select the Exdbeb flameproof option and ensure IP55 protection. Use IMB5/IM3001 mounting compatibility and the D-end top terminator box to simplify cabling. Verify 1000 m altitude and 40 °C ambient suitability, and confirm gas group IIB compliance for safe operation in Zone 1/2 environments.
This is a 3-phase squirrel-cage motor rated at 200 kW, 400 V, 50 Hz, with 4 poles. It runs in S1 continuous duty and employs IE3 premium efficiency. The enclosure is IP55, and Exdbeb protection indicates flameproof performance suitable for hazardous locations with gas group IIB.
Yes, the Exdbeb flameproof protection, gas group IIB rating, and IP55 enclosure support ATEX/IECEx compliance for hazardous area applications. It is especially suitable for chemical plants, oil and gas facilities, and mining sites where explosive atmospheres may be encountered and reliable protection is essential.
IE3 efficiency reduces electricity consumption during continuous operation. For this motor, full-load efficiency at 50 Hz is 96.6%, with high efficiency at partial loads (96.8% at 75% and 96.5% at 50%). Lower energy use translates into significant operating-cost reductions and improved sustainability without compromising performance or reliability.
The motor uses a 315 frame with a cast-iron housing and bearings 6319/C3 (drive end) and 6316/C3 (non-drive end) for durability. Mounting supports IMB5/IM3001 and a D-end top terminator box for straightforward installation. Regular inspections of bearing wear, cooling, and insulation (ICF) help sustain uptime in demanding processes.
