Exdbeb flameproof protection provides essential safety in hazardous environments, reducing ignition risk and enabling compliant operation in oil & gas, chemical processing, and mining applications. This translates to lower insurance costs, fewer shutdowns, and improved workforce confidence during maintenance. The IE3 premium efficiency rating delivers measurable energy savings in continuous S1 duty, lowering operating expenses for high-power drives and supporting sustainability initiatives in large-scale plants. IP55 enclosure and a robust frame size 400 with a D connection configuration simplify installation and environmental protection, enabling plug-and-play compatibility with existing motor racks and switchgear. IMB3/IM1001 mounting and four-pole design optimize vibration control and performance at 50 Hz, while the cast-iron frame enhances durability in demanding environments. The motor’s 40 °C ambient rating and 1000 m altitude capability broaden site applicability, delivering predictable performance in real-world industrial settings.

FAQs
Installers should verify Exdbeb protection and IP55 enclosure for the hazardous area. Use the D connection configuration with IMB3/IM1001 mounting and frame size 400 to match existing basements and switchgear. Ensure ambient temperature does not exceed 40 °C and altitude remains under 1000 m for peak performance.
The motor provides 630 kW at 500 V with a 50 Hz supply and IE3 premium efficiency. At 50 Hz, full-load efficiency is around 96.0%, with higher efficiency at 60 Hz (up to ~96.2%). It is a 4-pole, 4-pole design intended for S1 duty and has a D connection configuration.
Ideal for hazardous-area processes in oil & gas, chemical processing, mining, and other environments requiring flameproof Ex protection. Its rugged frame, IMB3/IM1001 mounting, and IP55 enclosure support long-term reliability in tough operating conditions.
Key safety features include Exdbeb explosion protection, IP55 enclosure, and IC411 insulation class. The design supports safe operation in hazardous zones and includes robust mechanical protection with a cast-iron frame and reliable bearing configuration.
IE3 efficiency reduces energy costs for continuous-duty applications, while the flameproof design lowers downtime due to fire-related hazards. The IMB3/IM1001 mounting simplifies installation, and the durable cast-iron frame extends service intervals, contributing to a favorable total cost of ownership in demanding plants.
