Feature → Business Impact → Application: The Exdbeb flameproof protection provides inherent safety in Zone IIB environments, reducing the risk of ignition and enabling compliant operation in hazardous plants such as chemical processing and mining. This translates to lower insurance costs and fewer shutdowns, while allowing installation in zones where standard motors cannot operate. Application-wise, it supports reliable startup under demanding ambient conditions and contributes to safer maintenance procedures. Feature → Business Impact → Application: IP55 protection shields the motor from dust and water ingress in outdoor or dirty industrial settings, extending service life and minimizing unplanned downtime. This is advantageous for outdoor fan or pump drives in refineries or fertilizer plants, where ingress protection directly correlates with reduced maintenance cycles. Feature → Business Impact → Application: IE2 efficiency with Full Load at 95% and stable performance at partial loads improves energy intensity for continuous operations, contributing to lower energy costs over the motor’s life. This is critical for automation upgrades where power consumption translates to measurable OPEX savings across thousands of running hours. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Cast Iron frame, 400 frame size, and robust 6324/C3 bearings provide durability and vibration resilience, which reduces bearing wear and mechanical failures. In high-load conveyors or milling drives, this reliability supports longer maintenance intervals and improved uptime. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Top-terminator box location eases electrical wiring and serviceability during installation or retrofits, cutting commissioning time and enabling rapid deployment in controlled environments like automation halls. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Degree of insulation IC L (ICLF) and Temperature Class T4 allow operation at ambient up to 40 °C and altitude up to 1000 m, ensuring performance stability in varied manufacturing sites. This is especially valuable for plants expanding to higher elevations or intensified process lines that demand steady torque and cooling margins.

FAQs
This motor is designed for Exdbeb flameproof protection and uses a top-terminator box location, which simplifies wiring during installation. The 400 frame with cast iron construction offers robust mounting compatibility for fixed installations, while the 6-pole design supports standard industry drives. For retrofits, ensure the existing panel supports the Ex protection class and that mounting dimensions align with a 400 frame footprint.
Key specs include IE2 efficiency with Full Load (100%) at roughly 95%, Partial Load (75%) also around 95%, and Partial Load (50%) near 94.2%. The motor is IC411 insulated and rated for Temperature Class T4, with IP55 protection. It operates as a 3-phase motor with a 6-pole configuration, suitable for steady S1 duty in hazardous environments.
Industries such as chemical processing, oil & gas, mining, and refineries benefit most. The Exdbeb flameproof protection addresses ignition risks in Zone IIB environments, while IP55 and rugged cast iron construction withstand harsh conditions, dust, and moisture common in these facilities. This makes it a preferred choice for critical pump, fan, and conveyor drives.
The motor carries Exdbeb flameproof protection for hazardous areas, IP55 ingress protection, and IC411 insulation. It is designed for gas group IIB and operates under S1 duty. The product supports compliance with industry standards for hazardous environments, enabling safe operation in critical industrial processes while addressing maintenance and regulatory requirements.
The combination of IE2 efficiency, durable cast iron frame, and robust bearings (6324/C3, 6319/C3) reduces energy costs and bearing wear, lowering long-term maintenance. The top-terminated connection simplifies servicing, contributing to faster turnarounds. Overall, expect lower lifecycle costs through energy savings, fewer unplanned outages, and extended equipment life in demanding facilities.
