Flameproof Ex db eb protection delivers enhanced safety and regulatory compliance, reducing risk of ignition in hazardous areas and supporting safer maintenance procedures. This protection level translates into fewer downtime events and lower insurance exposure, particularly in chemical processing facilities and offshore operations. The motor is designed to be compatible with existing ABB drives and control panels, enabling seamless retrofit or new-install projects with minimal engineering effort. The 2-pole, single-speed design (IE2 efficiency, IC411 insulation) provides dependable torque characteristics for continuous duty in S1 services, while the IP55 enclosure guards against dust and water ingress in demanding environments. The cast iron frame and robust bearings contribute to long service life under high-load conditions, reducing replacement cycles and total cost of ownership. Top terminator box location simplifies cable access during commissioning and maintenance, while the 400 frame size supports standard mounting patterns and interchangeability with legacy stock. Ambient temperature is rated to 40 °C with altitude up to 1000 m, ensuring stable operation across global sites. This motor is a solid choice for facilities seeking compliance, efficiency, and reliability in hazardous-area applications.

FAQs
Yes. The 3GKP401810-BDG is designed for compatibility with ABB control solutions, including standard drive architectures and common termination schemes. Its flameproof Ex db eb protection does not require custom harnessing, and the top termination box location simplifies wiring during commissioning. For retrofit projects, verify panel clearance and ensure correct cable sizing for the 2-pole IE2 motor within the permitted ambient temperature and altitude ranges.
The motor is a 2-pole, 3-phase unit with a duty class S1 (continuous). It uses a voltage code D and delivers IE2 efficiency with IC411 insulation. Rated for ambient temperatures up to 40 °C at up to 1000 m altitude and with IP55 protection. The Exdbeb flameproof protection and IIB gas group certification ensure safe operation in hazardous environments while maintaining reliable full-load performance.
Yes. The motor features Exdbeb flameproof protection with IP55 enclosure and IC411 insulation, making it suitable for hazardous locations. Certifications include flameproof Ex db eb approval, IP55 ingress protection, and insulation class IC411, aligning with industry standards for safety, risk mitigation, and regulatory compliance in chemical processing, oil and gas, and mining operations.
Expected ROI comes from reduced downtime, longer mean time between failures (MTBF), and lower maintenance costs due to the robust cast iron frame and high-quality bearings (6317M/C3). The flameproof rating reduces the risk of ignition-related incidents, while the simple top-entry wiring and standard frame size minimize spare parts inventory and retrofit complexity, improving overall lifecycle cost management.
Select the 400 frame size and confirm mounting suitability with your equipment footprint. The bearing combination 6317M/C3 supports heavy-duty loads in 2-pole, continuous-duty operation. Ensure alignment and correct coupling to your driven load, respect the ambient and altitude limits, and maintain proper lubrication schedules. Using the recommended top-terminator box layout simplifies inspection and reduces wear on field wiring.
