ABB 3GKP355420-BEG is a purpose-built, flameproof 3KP2__M3KP_IE2_Flameproof_Exde_motor that pairs safety with efficiency. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Exde flameproof protection provides critical safety margins in zones where explosive atmospheres exist, reducing the risk of ignition and enabling compliant motor operation in chemical plants and oil & gas facilities. This directly lowers insurance costs and downtime risk while supporting regulatory adherence. Feature → IP55 enclosure and cast iron 355 frame enhance durability and ingress protection across rugged environments, improving uptime in dusty or humid plant rooms and outdoor installations. Application includes pumps, fans, and conveyors operating in hazardous locations. Feature → IE2 efficiency and measured full-load and partial-load performance (Full Load 94.6%, 75% 94.8%, 50% 94.1%) reduce energy consumption across duty cycles, delivering tangible OPEX savings for continuous or variable-speed processes. Application spans process automation, material handling, and batching lines where energy efficiency matters. Feature → 10-pole design with robust bearings (6322/C3, 6316/C3) and IMB5 IM3001 mounting ensures smooth operation under heavy loads, minimizing vibration and wear in high-torque pump and mixer applications. Application includes high-load industrial drives on conveyors and fans. Feature → Top terminator box and top wiring entry enable faster installation and easier field service, reducing commissioning time and maintenance costs. Application includes retrofit projects and new builds in plants with limited space. Feature → Temperature Class T4, IC411 insulation, and IC leak protection support safe operation at 40 °C ambient and up to 1000 m altitude, expanding deployment options for multinational sites. Application covers offshore platforms, refineries, and manufacturing facilities where environmental conditions vary. Feature → Made To Order: No with minimum quantity 1 piece and a 355-frame, 2210 kg net weight packaging on a pallet simplifies procurement planning and logistics for bulk deployments. Application includes OEM and discrepancy-free spares management for large-scale installations.

FAQs
Install per Exde requirements in Zone 1/2 environments, connect via the top-entry terminal box, and observe IP55 protection. Ensure ambient temperature does not exceed 40 °C and altitude stays under 1000 m. Use flameproof cable glands and compatible adapters; verify bearing alignment and use IMB5 IM3001 mounting for best service life.
The motor is designed for IE2 efficiency. Typical performance: Full Load around 94.6% efficiency, Partial Load at 75% ~94.8%, and 50% ~94.1%, reflecting strong energy savings across varying load conditions on continuous-duty applications.
Yes. The Exde flameproof enclosure (Exdbeb) and IIB gas group rating, combined with IP55 protection and IC411 insulation, make it suitable for pumped liquid handling and mixer duties in hazardous areas while meeting core regulatory standards and maintainability needs.
Key protections include Exde flameproof, Exdbeb, IP55 enclosure, IC411 insulation, and Gas Group IIB. It operates safely in ambient 40 °C up to 1000 m altitude, and the direction of rotation is valid on both sides, offering installation flexibility.
Top-entry wiring and a top terminator box reduce wiring time and commissioning effort. The 355 frame with cast iron construction and robust bearings lowers maintenance costs, while energy efficiency (IE2) lowers operating expenses. Finland-made origin supports consistent supply and OEM-grade reliability across facilities.
