ABB 3GKP353220-BEK Flameproof IE3 Motor - Ex db eb

Flameproof construction with Exdbeb protection minimizes ignition risk in hazardous zones, supporting safer operations and easier compliance audits. This translates to lower risk exposure for operators and reduced insurance costs. Ideal for oil and gas platforms, chemical plants, and mining sites where explosion protection is mandatory. IE3 Premium Efficiency delivers up to 160 kW at 50 Hz, reducing energy losses and lowering operating expenses over the motor’s life. The business impact is improved total cost of ownership and better sustainability reporting. Applications include continuous-duty pumping and fans in process industries where energy efficiency is a priority. IP55 enclosure plus a 40 °C ambient tolerance ensure reliability in dusty, humid conditions, extending service intervals and reducing maintenance downtime. The impact is longer mean time between failures and a smoother production schedule. The rugged cast iron frame size 355 with IMB5/IM3001 mounting provides strong vibration resistance and faster commissioning, lowering installation risk and improving uptime. Suitable for heavy machinery, conveyors, and extraction systems in demanding environments. Electrical configuration at 500 V, 50 Hz with 6 poles and a D connection supports consistent performance and straightforward integration with standard plant electrics, enabling predictable torque and smooth starts when paired with drives. Altitude up to 1000 m and 40 °C ambient temperature mean fewer derating scenarios, translating to more reliable operation in remote sites. Finnish-origin manufacturing reinforces quality and spares support, with robust bearings (6322/C3, 6316/C3) contributing to a long service life and dependable maintenance planning.
