Exde flameproof protection with Exdbeb certification ensures safe operation in volatile atmospheres (Gas Group IIB). This combination reduces risk, simplifies regulatory compliance, and supports reliable startup in chemical plants, refineries, and offshore installations. The motor's flameproof enclosure and robust sealing help maintain performance during pressure spikes and temperature fluctuations, delivering predictable torque and uptime in critical processes. With a 12-pole design in a 355 frame and a cast iron housing, the motor provides high starting torque and rugged durability, resisting vibration and enabling long service life in conveyors, pumps, and crushers. Top-mounted terminal box and IMB5 mounting enable straightforward installation and cable management, reducing commissioning time and maintenance effort. IP55 protection shields the unit from dust and water jets in demanding environments, while IC411 insulation endows resilience against 40 °C ambient temperatures and 1000 m altitude. This reduces insulation breakdown risk and prolongs intervals, supporting reliable operation in outdoor plants and elevated installations common in mining and energy sectors. IE2-class efficiency with Full Load ~93.8% and partial-load levels near 93% across the rated range, combined with S1 duty for continuous operation, helps reduce running costs and supports predictable energy budgeting for hazardous facilities. Industry-ready features such as Exde/Exdbeb protection, reversible rotation, and a robust frame provide flexibility for layout changes and capacity expansions. The Finland-origin, cast iron construction, and bearing teams 6322/C3 and 6316/C3 contribute to long service intervals and lower maintenance frequency, while a 1-piece minimum order and strong supplier support streamline procurement on large projects.

FAQs

For hazardous environments, install with Exde flameproof protection and Exdbeb certification, ensuring compliance with Gas Group IIB requirements. Use the top termination box for cable management and IMB5 mounting for secure fitment. Ensure ambient conditions meet the 40 °C limit and altitude up to 1000 m, with IP55 protection guarding against dust and moisture ingress.
Exde protection ensures the motor enclosure is flameproof, preventing ignition of surrounding atmospheres in case of internal faults. Exdbeb adds an external explosion-protection layer, improving safe operation in volatile zones. The result is enhanced safety, reduced regulatory risk, and reliable performance under harsh conditions typical of chemical, oil & gas, and mining facilities.
Yes. The 12-pole design delivers high starting torque and good low-speed performance, ideal for conveyors and pumps. The 355 frame with cast iron housing provides rugged durability, while the reversible rotation allows flexible layout changes. Combined with Exde protection, this motor is a solid fit for demanding, long-running mechanical drives in hazardous areas.
The motor carries Exde flameproof protection with Exdbeb, suitable for Gas Group IIB environments, and IP55 ingress protection. Insulation is rated IC411. It operates under S1 duty for continuous operation and provides reversible rotation. These certifications ensure compliance for hazardous-area installations in chemical, oil & gas, and mining sectors.
With IE2 efficiency showing Full Load around 93.8%, energy costs are reduced compared with standard-efficiency designs, contributing to faster payback on energy savings. The robust cast-iron frame, long bearing life (6322/C3 and 6316/C3), and top-entry box simplify maintenance and inspection in hazardous zones, supporting higher uptime and lower lifecycle costs in continuous-operation plants.
