Flameproof Exdbeb protection reduces fire and ignition risk in potentially explosive atmospheres, enabling safer operation and regulatory compliance across hazardous-area applications. This directly lowers risk-related downtime and supports continuous production in petrochemical, mining, and chemical processing facilities. The 250 kW IE2 High Efficiency rating delivers meaningful energy savings across full-load to partial-load conditions, contributing to lower operating costs and reduced carbon footprint in long-running processes. IP55 enclosure protects electrical internals from dust and water ingress, improving reliability in rugged plant environments and simplifying maintenance intervals. The frame is Cast Iron with a 355 size, providing durability and vibration resistance for heavy-duty applications, while the 2-pole design yields robust performance with straightforward integration into existing ABB motor control ecosystems. The top-terminator box and DIN rail compatibility streamline installation and service, reducing commissioning time and risk during upgrades. Designed for 1000 m altitude and 40 °C ambient, it maintains stable performance in diverse geographic locations and supports global deployment with a single motor family. Compatibility with ABB control systems and service networks simplifies spares availability and warranty coverage, delivering lower total cost of ownership over the motor’s life cycle. The motor’s insulation class IC411 and gas group IIB reinforce protection against thermal and chemical stress, ensuring long service life in demanding environments. Altogether, this motor aligns with energy-efficiency targets, safety standards, and procurement simplification for mid- to large-scale industrial projects.

FAQs
Yes. The 3GKP351420-BDG is a 3‑phase IE2 flameproof motor designed to integrate with ABB drive systems and motor protection architectures. It uses a 355 frame, Top terminator box, and a D voltage code, simplifying panel wiring and ensuring seamless communication with ABB controllers and safeguarding equipment through consistent protection class IP55 and Exdbeb certification.
At full load, the motor delivers 250 kW with IE2 efficiency. It features a 2-pole design for high-speed operation and is rated for IC411 insulation. The motor achieves IE2 efficiency across full and partial loads (100%, 75%, 50%), supporting reliable performance in continuous S1 duty, even at ambient temperatures up to 40 °C and altitudes up to 1000 m.
Yes. The motor is certified for hazardous environments with Exdbeb explosion protection and gas group IIB, along with IP55 protection and IC411 insulation. These certifications ensure safe operation in areas with flammable liquids or gases, while maintaining reliability in demanding industrial settings such as chemical plants, oil and gas facilities, and mining sites.
Follow ABB’s standard maintenance intervals for high‑duty, flameproof motors. Regularly inspect bearing condition (6316M/C3 where applicable), monitor terminal connections in the top-terminator box, and check for signs of dust ingress despite IP55 rating. Lubricate bearings per manufacturer guidance, verify insulation integrity, and schedule periodic vibration analysis to detect imbalance or misalignment early, reducing unexpected downtime.
The ROI comes from energy savings from IE2 efficiency, reduced downtime due to robust Exdbeb protection, and lower procurement complexity via a single motor family compatible with ABB drives. Although upfront costs may be higher than standard motors, the combination of energy efficiency, safety compliance, and streamlined maintenance typically yields a favorable total cost of ownership over the motor’s lifecycle in hazardous industrial environments.
