FAQs

Key electrical specs include a 400 V, 50 Hz input, 160 kW output, and 6-pole construction, which define drive performance and size. Mechanically, a cast iron frame size 315, IP55 enclosure, and Exdbeb flameproof protection assure safe operation in harsh environments. Additional factors such as duty S1, connection configuration D, and mounting compatibility (IMB3/IM1001) influence installation choices and long-term reliability.
Exdb flameproof protection combined with IP55 enclosure provides robust safety margins for hazardous areas. The Exdbeb rating supports flameproof enclosure in gas groups IIB, while IP55 guards against dust and water ingress during maintenance or process upsets. This means fewer unplanned shutdowns and easier compliance with ATEX/IECEx requirements in chemical, oil, and mining operations.
Yes, the ABB motor is designed for IMB3 IM1001 mounting and features a D-End top terminator box location, simplifying installation in existing plant footprints. The 400 V, 50 Hz supply and frame 315 size align with standard industrial drives, enabling straightforward retrofits or new builds. Confirm cable entry, terminal box clearances, and enclosure rating during commissioning.
IE4 efficiency delivers measurable energy savings at both full-load and partial-load conditions. In this motor, IE Class IE4 shows full-load efficiency around 96.2% at 100% load at 50 Hz and similar figures at 60 Hz; partial-load performance remains high (75% ~96.1%). Coupled with robust flameproof design, this reduces operating costs, cooling demands, and maintenance intervals in continuous duty processes.
ROI for upgrading to this flameproof IE4 motor depends on energy savings, maintenance avoidance, and equipment reliability. The combination of 160 kW output at 400 V with EX protection and IP55 enclosure supports longer mean times between failures and reduced energy consumption across chemical or oil-and-gas plants. Expect shorter payback through lower electricity bills and reduced downtime.
