FAQs
This motor is designed with Exdbeb explosion protection and an IP55 enclosure, making it suitable for hazardous zones. Installers should plan for IMB5/IM3001 mounting and a top terminal box, ensuring proper clearance for heat dissipation and maintenance access. The 500 V supply and 50 Hz frequency are standard, with 8 poles delivering robust torque for demanding loads. Verify local ATEX/IECEx requirements and ensure correct cable entries and glands are used to maintain enclosure integrity.
Exdbeb protection provides explosion‑proof integrity for explosive gas atmospheres, aligning with ATEX and IECEx expectations for equipment in IIB gas groups. This feature reduces ignition risk and simplifies site approvals, enabling safe operation in petrochemical, refining, and mining environments. Coupled with IP55, IC411 insulation, and durable materials, the motor supports long service life under harsh conditions while minimizing regulatory non‑conformities.
The motor is rated for 50 Hz at 500 V with an 8‑pole configuration, delivering 55 kW. Efficiency data at 50 Hz shows Full Load around 92.5% (IE3), with higher figures at 60 Hz (93.6%), indicating slightly improved performance when operated at 60 Hz. For facilities using 60 Hz, verify drive compatibility and cooling requirements to maintain performance and thermal limits; otherwise, operation at 50 Hz is fully supported by the design.
The unit uses a 315 frame size with a Cast Iron frame and bearing arrangement 6319/C3, designed for IMB5 IM3001 mounting. A Top Terminator Box Location facilitates straightforward wiring and service access. These features, along with a weight of approximately 866 kg, indicate a robust installation that aligns with standard industrial floors and existing drive train configurations, simplifying retrofits and new builds alike.
The IE3 premium efficiency class reduces energy consumption for continuous duty applications, contributing to lower operating costs over the motor’s life. The Exdbeb explosion protection and IP55 enclosure improve safety and uptime in hazardous environments, reducing maintenance disruptions and spare part usage. Coupled with a durable cast iron frame and reliable bearings, this motor supports longer service intervals, lower total cost of ownership, and compliance with industry safety standards.
