Flameproof Exdbeb protection is built into the ABB 3GKP402520-AEG motor, delivering ignition prevention during starts, stops, and fault events. This certification ensures compliance with ATEX and IECEx expectations for hazardous-area equipment, reducing the need for customer-side protective enclosures. In oil, gas, chemical, and mining operations, this design keeps critical pumps and fans running safely with minimal optional accessories. IP55 enclosure rated housing shields against dust and water ingress, cutting maintenance cycles in production floors, outdoors, and dusty plant rooms. The rugged cast-iron frame (400) offers mechanical resilience in vibration-heavy environments and simplifies alignment with standard mounting bases. IE2 efficiency is demonstrated with Full Load at 95.1% and strong partial-load performance, helping operators reduce energy bills and heat generation in continuous-duty applications. Four-pole operation with S1 duty provides predictable torque for steady processes like pumps and conveyors, improving lifecycle reliability. High-quality bearings (6324/C3 and 6319/C3) and IMB3 IM1001 classification support long service life and smoother maintenance, while a top-termination box and compact geometry streamline installation in tight spaces. Finland-origin production, 1-piece MOQ, and a heavy, pallet-ready package level inform procurement and logistics planning. Overall, the motor integrates safely with standard AB Drive ecosystems, delivering reliable hazardous-area performance with energy-conscious operation for industrial automation.

FAQs
Installation should account for Exdbeb flameproof certification, IP55 enclosure, and a robust craft approach for explosive environments. Use proper anti-static handling, ensure correct grounding, verify alignment with a standard 400 frame base, and plan for the top-termination box location to simplify wiring in restricted spaces. The motor’s heavy weight (~3.4 tons gross) also necessitates suitable hoisting equipment and palletized shipping workflows to minimize on-site risk.
This is a single-speed, 4-pole, 3-phase squirrel-cage motor with IE2 efficiency. Full-load efficiency is 95.1%, with similar performance under 75% and 50% partial loads. Voltage code is E, and it operates under S1 continuous duty. The motor is designed for ambient temperatures up to 40 °C and altitude up to 1000 m, making it suitable for a wide range of industrial sites.
Yes. The motor features Exdbeb flameproof protection for hazardous areas and IIB gas-group suitability. It also carries an IP55 enclosure rating and ICFL insulation, which together ensure safe operation in explosive atmospheres, while maintaining reliability for continuous industrial processes.
Industries such as petrochemicals, oil and gas, mining, and chemical processing benefit from the flameproof Exdbeb protection and IP55 housing. Applications include pumps, fans, conveyors, and other continuous-duty equipment requiring reliable operation under hazardous conditions, where energy efficiency and compliance translate to lower total cost of ownership.
Expect long service life from cast-iron frame construction and precision bearings (6324/C3 and 6319/C3) with IMB3 IM1001 alignment. Plan for top-box wiring access and standard mounting compatibility with M3KP designs. The heavy weight requires appropriate lifting gear, and the 1-piece MOQ supports rapid deployment, reducing downtime during commissioning and spare-part planning.
