Ex protection and hazardous-area compliance translates to safer startups and reduced regulatory risk in refineries and chemical plants. The Exdbeb protection, IIB gas group, and IP55 enclosure ensure enclosure integrity under pressure and flame paths, enabling operation in Zone 1 areas. Real-world result: lower insurance costs and safer personnel access. The IE3 premium efficiency rating delivers energy savings by maintaining high efficiency across full and partial loads, reducing electricity consumption and operating costs in continuous-duty operations. With a 250 kW output, 6 poles, and Frame Size 355, the motor provides strong starting torque and reliable speed control for pumps, fans, and grinders, while meeting industry expectations for downtime reduction and lifecycle cost. The robust cast-iron frame, coupled with bearing assemblies 6322/C3 and 6316/C3, supports long service life and predictable maintenance windows, even in high-vibration environments. IMB5/IM3001 mounting compatibility simplifies installation, aligns with common industrial standards, and minimizes retrofit risk. The IP55 enclosure, D connection, and 400 V / 50 Hz supply create a predictable, maintenance-friendly integration path, reducing field errors and ensuring consistent performance in challenging plants. This motor also adheres to S1 duty, ensuring suitable operation under continuous loading conditions common in process industries, while insulation class ICLF provides reliable thermal endurance in ambient temperatures up to 40 °C and moderate altitude. Overall, the combination of protection, efficiency, and rugged construction translates into lower lifecycle costs, improved uptime, and greater plant safety across hazardous-area applications.

FAQs
The 3GKP353230-BDL is designed for IMB5/IM3001 mounting configurations, simplifying field installation on existing frames. It uses a D-end top terminator box and a 355 frame. For proper alignment and service access, verify mounting hole patterns, shaft alignment, and cable entry clearance per the IMB5/IM3001 standard. Compatibility with IMB5/IM3001 reduces retrofit time and ensures consistent performance across installations.
Key specifications include 400 V input voltage, 50 Hz frequency, 250 kW output power, and 6-pole design. The motor operates under IE3 Premium Efficiency, with a Type D connection configuration, Ex protection Exdbeb, and an IP55 enclosure. These data points support precise procurement, proper drive sizing, and reliable operation in hazardous-area environments.
Yes. The motor is designed for hazardous environments with Exdbeb flameproof protection, Gas Group IIB, and an IP55 enclosure. This combination enhances enclosure integrity under explosion risk conditions, enabling safe operation in Zone 1-like settings and other hazardous-area applications such as chemical processing, oil and gas, and mining.
Industries like chemical processing, oil and gas, and mining benefit the most due to the motor’s Ex protection, IIB gas group, and IP55 rating. The IE3 efficiency reduces energy costs during continuous operation, while the robust cast-iron frame and IMB5/IM3001 mounting provide reliable performance in demanding, vibration-prone environments.
Expect reduced energy costs from IE3 efficiency, lower downtime due to robust protection against dust and moisture ingress (IP55), and longer service life from a cast-iron frame and quality bearings. The combination of reliable protection and high efficiency translates to faster payback, improved plant uptime, and lower total cost of ownership over the motor’s life cycle.
