FAQs
The motor is designed for hazardous-area installations with Exdbeb protection and IIB gas group suitability. It uses IMB3/IM1001 mounting, top terminator box, and a frame size 315 with a cast-iron housing, enabling straightforward integration into existing Ex-rated plant layouts and new builds alike.
At 50 Hz the motor delivers 75 kW with IE3 efficiency, subject to Full Load (100%) and Partial Load (75%/50%) performance around 93% efficiency. At 60 Hz the IE3 data remains high, with Full Load efficiency approximately 93.6%, ensuring strong performance across standard industrial speeds and loads.
Yes. It carries Exdbeb protection for IIB gas groups and an IP55 enclosure, which provides robust protection against dust and water ingress. The insulation class ICLF and temperature class T4 further support safe operation under demanding ambient conditions up to 40 °C.
Leverage the IMB3/IM1001 mounting classification and top terminator box to simplify installation. The 8-pole design and sturdy cast-iron frame reduce vibration and wear, while the bearing set (6319/C3 and 6316/C3) supports long service intervals. Regular inspection of bearings and cooling pathways will sustain optimal performance in continuous-duty applications.
The combination of IE3 efficiency and flameproof protection lowers energy and maintenance costs while reducing risk in hazardous environments. Its rugged construction and compliant certification streamline procurement, installation, and ongoing maintenance, delivering a lower total cost of ownership in critical pumping and pumping/ventilation applications.
