Feature → Business Impact → Application Flameproof Exdbeb protection enables safe operation in Zone 1/II environments, reducing risk of ignition and improving worker safety. This supports compliance with explosive atmosphere standards while enabling continuous process flow in chemical and petrochemical facilities. Application: hazardous-area motors, offshore platforms, and refineries. IE3 Premium Efficiency reduces electrical losses, delivering lower energy costs over the motor’s life and a favorable total cost of ownership for continuous-duty applications. Application: pumping, fans, and conveyors in plants with 50 Hz operation at 500 V. IP55 enclosure and IC411 insulation class protect against dust, water ingress, and high ambient temperatures, increasing uptime in dusty or hot factories. Application: metalworking, mining, and process industries with elevated ambient conditions. Cast Iron frame, 400 frame size, and bearings 6317M/C3 provide rugged durability and long service life, lowering maintenance cycles. Application: heavy-duty conveyors and steel mills. Terminal box location on top simplifies wiring in restricted spaces, while IMB3/IM1001 mounting supports flexible installation across geographic regions. Application: international projects with varied mounting requirements. Operation is primarily 2-pole, which supports compact footprints and high torque for start-up loads. Application: crushers and mixers requiring robust torque response.

FAQs
This motor uses Exdbeb flameproof protection suitable for Zone 1/II environments and requires top-mounted termination, a D-configuration connection, and an IP55 enclosure. Plan for a 2-pole, 50 Hz supply at 500 V, and ensure mounting so IMB3/IM1001 standards are met. Verify altitude up to 1000 m and ambient up to 40 °C for reliable operation.
IE3 Premium Efficiency reduces electrical losses relative to lower efficiency classes, leading to meaningful operating cost reductions over the motor’s life. For high-power, continuous-duty applications, the efficiency gains translate into lower energy consumption, reduced CO2 footprint, and improved total cost of ownership without compromising performance.
Yes. The motor features Exdbeb protection and is rated for Gas Group IIB, making it suitable for hazardous environments where explosion protection is mandatory. It also benefits from IP55 enclosure and robust mechanical design for safe, reliable operation in harsh industrial zones.
Key compatibility features include a D connection configuration, 500 V input at 50 Hz, frame size 400 with IMB3/IM1001 mounting, and a top terminator box location. These elements facilitate wiring in constrained spaces, ease of replacement, and integration with standard industrial drive systems across multiple regions.
The cast iron frame, 6317M/C3 bearings, and IMB3 IM1001 mounting contribute to a long service life with minimized maintenance needs. Its rugged construction resists harsh ambient conditions, while explosion protection and IP55 enclosure help sustain uptime in demanding environments. Expect lower maintenance frequency and improved reliability in critical production lines.
