The flameproof Exdbeb protection combined with an IP55 enclosure delivers safety compliance and reduces risk in chemical, oil & gas, and mining drives; the motor is rated for IIB gas groups and ATEX/IECEx-aligned environments. The IE3 premium efficiency delivers meaningful energy savings, with measured full-load efficiency around 95.8% and high partial-load performance (95.6% at 75% load, 95.2% at 50% load at 50 Hz), translating to lower operating costs and reduced heat generation in continuous-duty applications. The rugged mechanical design uses a cast iron frame size 400 with bearings 6324/C3 and 6319/C3, plus IMB3/IM1001 mounting and a top terminator box for straightforward alignment and serviceability. Operating conditions include 500 V, 50 Hz, altitude up to 1000 m, ambient 40 °C, IP55, and IC411 insulation, ensuring reliable performance in harsh environments. The product supports easy procurement with MOQ of 1 piece, origin in Finland, and standard EN/IEC-linked certifications, making it a practical choice for established plants seeking standard, compliant flameproof drive solutions.

FAQs
This motor uses IMB3/IM1001 mounting with a top terminator box location and a D-type connection configuration (Electrical). Frame size 400 and a 6-pole design support standard industrial drives, enabling straightforward alignment with existing belts, couplings, and VFDs. The combination simplifies retrofit substitutions and ensures compatibility with common foot-mounted bases and control panels.
Key specifications include 500 kW output at 500 V and 50 Hz, 6 poles, frame size 400, IP55 enclosure, insulation class ICLF, Ex protection Exdbeb for IIB gas groups, and duty S1. It also features IE3 premium efficiency with full-load efficiency around 95.8% at 100% load (and very high efficiency at partial loads), suitable for continuous operation.
Ideal for hazardous environments such as chemical processing, oil and gas installations, mining, and water/wastewater pumping stations. The Exdbeb flameproof protection, IP55 enclosure, and 6-pole design enable reliable performance under demanding temperatures and ambient conditions, while the IMB3/IM1001 mounting supports robust, long-life installation in tough service conditions.
The motor provides Exdbeb flameproof protection for gas group IIB, IP55 enclosure, and IC411 insulation with a robust 500 V/50 Hz rating. Its flameproof design supports ATEX/IECEx-aligned applications, and the unit originates from Finland (FI), with a Customs Tariff of 85015394 and a specified mounting and duty class that align with industrial safety and procurement standards.
The IE3 efficiency reduces energy costs in continuous operation, contributing to a favorable total cost of ownership. With a robust cast iron frame, quality bearings (6324/C3 and 6319/C3), and IMB3/IM1001 mounting, maintenance intervals are predictable and straightforward. A 1-piece MOQ supports scalable deployment across multiple pumps or fans, and the Finnish origin reflects stringent manufacturing quality, helping ensure predictable uptime and long service life.
