FAQs
What mounting and enclosure requirements apply for safe installation? The motor uses a 400 frame with Cast Iron construction and bearings 6317M/C3, supporting IMB5 IM3001 installations. Ensure Exde flameproof enclosure integrity, proper terminal box access on top, and adherence to IP55 protection. Verify ambient temperature (up to 40 °C) and altitude (up to 1000 m) limitations, and coordinate with local safety standards for hazardous-area approvals.
Exde flameproof protection provides inherent safety in explosive atmospheres, reducing the need for secondary protective housings and simplifying compliance testing. This translates to lower maintenance overhead, fewer component fields, and more predictable service intervals. In practice, expect fewer weather-related failure modes and improved reliability in oil, gas, and chemical processing environments.
Yes. The motor is rated for S1 duty (continuous operation), designed to sustain uninterrupted loads typical of pumps, fans, and conveyors. With a 2-pole configuration and a robust IM class, it maintains stable performance under steady loads, contributing to higher process uptime and reduced throttling or cycling in demanding plants.
The unit features IP55 ingress protection, Exde flameproof protection for hazardous environments, IC411 insulation class, and Gas Group IIB suitability. These certifications align with common industrial safety regulations, enabling safer operation in chemical, petrochemical, and mining applications while supporting regulatory documentation and audits.
Anticipate reduced maintenance due to rugged cast-iron frame, high bearing life (6317M/C3), and had minimal external protection needs thanks to Exde and IP55 ratings. ROI benefits come from lower downtime, fewer enclosure purchases, and longer service intervals in hazardous areas, improving plant availability and lowering lifecycle costs.
