FAQs
This motor uses a D connection, IMB3/IM1001 mounting, and a 315 frame designed for 400 V, 50 Hz supply. Ensure compatible electrical panels, adequate space for the flameproof enclosure, and adherence to ATEX/IECEx installation guidelines. Verify ambient temperature rating (40 °C) and altitude up to 1000 m to maintain performance and reliability.
The motor delivers IE4 (Super Premium) efficiency. At 50 Hz, full-load efficiency is 96.7%, with 75% and 50% partial-load tests around 96.9% and 96.7%, respectively. At 60 Hz, full-load efficiency is 96.8%, ensuring strong energy performance during variable loading in hazardous environments.
Yes. It features Exdbeb flameproof protection suitable for IIB gas groups and an IP55 enclosure. This combination supports safe operation in explosive atmospheres and aligns with ATEX/IECEx expectations for hazardous area motors used in chemical, oil & gas, and mining industries.
The combination of robust cast-iron frame, IP55 protection, and flameproof construction reduces ingress-related wear and maintenance downtime. IE4 efficiency lowers ongoing energy costs, and the IMB3/IM1001 mounting offers durable alignment in challenging installations, contributing to longer service intervals and improved total cost of ownership.
With a 400 V, 50 Hz supply, D-connection configuration, and a 4-pole design, the ABB 3GKP312850-ADM integrates smoothly into typical industrial drives and control architectures. Its alignment with S1 duty and 315 frame sizing simplifies replacement in existing lines, while the flameproof and IP55 ratings ensure continued operation in hazardous zones.
