Feature → Business Impact → Application: The Exde flameproof protection provides enhanced safety in hazardous areas, reducing incident risk and enabling compliant operation in IIB gas environments. This directly lowers maintenance costs and minimizes downtime in oil, gas, and chemical facilities, where reliability is critical.Application: Ideal for pump and fan drives in refineries and chemical plants, where explosion protection is mandatory and uptime directly correlates with process throughput. Feature → Business Impact → Application: IP55 enclosure shields the motor from dust and water ingress, improving service intervals and extending bearing life in dusty quarry, mining, and tunneling environments.Application: Suitable for outdoor or semi-enclosed installations where weather exposure could otherwise compromise performance. Feature → Business Impact → Application: 10-pole design delivers higher starting torque at lower speeds with stable torque characteristics, enabling efficient belt-driven and gear-driven applications.Application: Useful in conveyors and hoists where consistent low-speed operation is required. Feature → Business Impact → Application: IE2 efficiency rating, with full-load efficiency around 94.6%, translates to tangible energy savings over the motor’s life cycle.Application: Beneficial for continuous S1 duty cycles in process lines and batch operations. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Cast‑iron frame and robust bearing arrangement (6322/C3, 6316/C3) improve vibration damping and longevity under heavy loads.Application: Critical for long-running mechanical handling and heavy equipment in steel mills and pulp and paper facilities. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Insulation class ICLF and temperature class T4 enable safe performance at ambient up to 40 °C and up to 1000 m altitude, reducing risk of insulation degradation.Application: Supports installations in elevated industrial sites with harsher thermal conditions. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Exdbeb protection and gas group IIB compatibility expand safe operation into zones with flammable atmospheres, helping compliance with regional hazardous-area standards.Application: Essential for mining, chemical processing, and offshore platforms where regulatory requirements are stringent.

FAQs
Installation should follow IEC/EN guidelines for Exde flameproof motors, ensuring proper enclosure certification, correct cable entry, and exclusion of non‑explosive accessories. Use only compatible feet, couplings, and IEC/UL-listed components. Verify gas group IIB compatibility and ensure ventilation and clearance per the 355 mm frame specification for safe heat dissipation.
This model operates with a 3‑phase supply and a 10‑pole configuration for reduced speed and high torque. It features IE2 efficiency, full-load efficiency around 94.6%, and an IP55 enclosure. Duty is S1 (continuous), with temperature class T4, suitable for ambient up to 40 °C and altitude up to 1000 m.
Yes. The Exde flameproof protection, IP55 enclosure, Exdbeb protection, and IIB gas group ratings make it appropriate for hazardous zones common in mining and chemical plants. The cast-iron frame and robust bearings support harsh operating conditions, while the IE2 efficiency reduces energy costs in continuous operations.
Key protections include Exde flameproof protection, Exdbeb external protection, IP55 ingress protection, and IC411 insulation. It is certified for hazardous environments (IIB gas group) and designed for continuous duty (S1) in high-demand industrial settings.
Expect reduced downtime due to robust flameproof protection and higher reliability in hazardous sites. The IE2 efficiency lowers energy consumption, and the heavy‑duty cast‑iron frame extends service life, lowering lifecycle costs. Regular inspections of bearings (6322/C3 and 6316/C3) and insulation health should be scheduled per maintenance plans.
