FAQs
Install the motor as a 3-phase, 400 V, 50 Hz unit wired in a Y configuration for balanced starting currents. Use the IMB3/IM1001 mounting arrangement and ensure the terminator box is located at the top as specified. The Exdbeb flameproof design and IP55 enclosure require appropriate gas-group adherence and enclosure integrity checks before commissioning. Verify that the installation site complies with ATEX/IECEx and local electrical codes to maintain the motor’s safety certifications.
Key electrical specs include 400 V input, 50 Hz (60 Hz data available), 55 kW output, and 8 poles, with a star (Y) connection. It runs on a 3-phase supply under S1 duty, and delivers IE3 premium efficiency. The motor is rated IP55 and features Exdbeb flameproof protection and IC411 insulation, suitable for continuous operation in demanding environments.
Yes. The motor is rated for ambient temperatures up to 40 °C and elevations up to 1000 m, which are common limits for industrial installations. The IC411 insulation and robust cast-iron frame support sustained performance under these conditions, while the IMB3/IM1001 mounting provides reliable mechanical stability and heat dissipation in harsh sites.
The motor carries Exdbeb flameproof protection and IP55 enclosure protection, with IC411 insulation class for reliable electrical performance. Gas group IIB designation indicates suitability for specific flammable gas environments. Together, these certifications support compliance with ATEX/IECEx and other global safety standards while enabling safe installation in hazardous areas.
Expected TCO improvements arise from IE3 premium efficiency, reducing energy consumption on continuous duty and lowering heat load on cooling systems. The rugged cast-iron frame, top-terminated box, and IMB3/IM1001 mounting simplify maintenance and spare-parts planning. With a 315 frame and 8-pole design, downtime is minimized during routine servicing, while the Ex protection and IP55 rating limit exposure to dust and moisture in challenging plants.
