ABB 3GKP351420-AEG 3KP2__M3KP_IE2 Flameproof Exde motor
Part Number: 3GKP351420-AEG
Quick Summary
ABB 3GKP351420-AEG is a 3-phase squirrel cage motor for flameproof Exde duty in hazardous industrial environments. Installing in ATEX zones can be challenging due to strict explosion protection and reliability requirements, but this unit is designed to simplify compliance and reduce maintenance cost. Critical protections include IP55 ingress protection, IC411 insulation, and Exde flameproof (Exdbeb) certification for IIB gas groups, enabling safe operation across demanding sites. With IE2 efficiency, a rugged cast-iron frame, and a top-access termination box, the motor delivers consistent performance for global manufacturing and processing applications. This combination supports energy savings, predictable service life, and seamless automation integration with ABB drives and control systems in chemical, mining, and oil-and-gas environments.

Feature → Business Impact → Application: Flameproof Exde protection (Exdbeb) provides robust safety in hazardous areas, reducing risk and downtime while simplifying regulatory compliance for ATEX/IECEx projects in chemical plants and refineries. This directly translates to lower total cost of ownership and fewer incident-related outages. Feature → Application: IP55 protection and IC411 insulation ensure reliable operation in dusty, humid, or corrosive environments, minimizing equipment failures and maintenance cycles in mining, cement, and power generation facilities. Feature → Application: IE2 efficiency paired with 2-pole 355 frame yields meaningful energy savings and smaller drives, translating to lower operating costs in continuous-duty installations such as mixing, grinding, or pumping in process industries. Feature → Application: Cast iron frame and 6316M/C3 bearings provide excellent mechanical robustness, enabling long service life under vibration, thermal cycling, and heavy loading in steel mills, chemical reactors, and offshore platforms. Feature → Application: Top termination box simplifies field wiring and installation, reducing commissioning time and human error during panel assembly in plants with limited space or high-mobility equipment. Feature → Application: Temperature Class T4, altitude up to 1000 m, ambient 40 °C, and continuous S1 duty ensure stable performance across varied sites, supporting uptime guarantees in remote or high-temperature locations. This motor also supports harmonized compliance with IE2 efficiency mandates, improving sustainability credentials while maintaining reliable torque delivery in demanding applications.

FAQs
To ensure compatibility, install the Exde flameproof motor with top termination box to simplify wiring in confined spaces, verify Exdbeb protection for gas group IIB, and utilize cable glands rated for ATEX/IECEx environments. Confirm ambient temperature does not exceed 40 °C and altitude remains below 1000 m, per specifications, to maintain performance and safety.
The motor incorporates Exde flameproof protection with Exdbeb protection, engineered for hazardous zones and gas group IIB. It carries IP55 ingress protection and ICFL insulation, enabling safe operation during continuous duty in potentially explosive atmospheres, while supporting regulatory compliance and reduced risk of ignition in process industries.
IE2 efficiency reduces electrical losses, delivering lower energy consumption during prolonged operation. In continuous-duty applications such as pumps or mixers, this translates to meaningful annual energy savings, lower heat generation, and reduced cooling requirements, which also extends bearing life and lowers total cost of ownership.
Yes. The motor is rated for altitude up to 1000 m and ambient temperatures up to 40 °C, with a temperature class of T4. This makes it well-suited for sites with moderate altitude and heat load, such as oil, gas, and chemical facilities, while maintaining reliable torque and protection levels.
Maintenance benefits include a robust cast-iron frame and bearing set (6316M/C3) for long service life, top-entry termination simplifying inspections, and a design aligned with IE2 and IC classifications for energy efficiency and insulation quality. Compliance benefits stem from IP55, Exde flameproof protection, and international certification alignment, supporting regulatory audits and safe operation in hazardous environments.
