FAQs
This motor is engineered for hazardous areas thanks to Exdbeb flameproof protection, IP55 enclosure, and IC411 insulation. It supports safe operation in oil & gas, chemical, and mining environments, with IMB3/IM1001 mounting compatibility and a Top terminator box location to ease integration with standard ABB drive systems.
The motor delivers 55 kW at 500 V and 50 Hz, with 8 poles and a duty class of S1. It features IE3 premium efficiency and Exdbeb flameproof protection, suitable for continuous operation in demanding environments. It is designed for 3-phase supply and aligns with common industrial electrical architectures.
Yes. The 8-pole M3KP315SMA-IMB3 mounting designation and IMB3/IM1001 compatibility enable straightforward retrofits and new installations. This reduces commissioning time and risk, simplifies wiring and alignment with existing control cabinets, and supports quick upgrades in plants using ABB drives.
Key certifications include Exdbeb flameproof protection for explosive atmospheres, IP55 enclosure for dust and moisture protection, and IC411 insulation class for thermal resilience. The motor is designed for hazardous-area applications in IIB gas environments, with Finnish origin and robust mechanical protections for heavy-duty service.
IE3 efficiency reduces energy costs over the motor’s life, delivering notable savings in continuous-service applications. The flameproof protection and IP55 rating minimize risk and downtime, while compatibility with standard ABB drives lowers maintenance complexity. Combined, these factors support faster payback, improved uptime, and longer service intervals in tough industrial sites.
