Flameproof Ex protection provides a safe operating envelope in hazardous zones, reducing ignition risk and asset damage. Business impact: safer sites, lower insurance exposure, and easier regulatory compliance during audits. Application: chemical processing and oil & gas facilities where explosion protection is mandatory. IE4 Super Premium efficiency reduces energy consumption, yielding measurable operating expense savings across continuous-duty drives. Application: belt conveyors, pumps, and crushers where high torque at fixed speed is typical. IP55 enclosure and rugged cast-iron frame withstand dusty, wet, and outdoor environments, extending MTBF and minimizing unplanned downtime. Business impact: lower maintenance costs and longer service intervals; Application: mines, refineries, and marine-side installations. IMB5/IM3001 mounting options and a robust 400 frame size simplify retrofit projects and OEM integrations. Business impact: faster installation, fewer custom adaptations, and streamlined spare-part inventories. Operating conditions support wide use: ambient up to 40 °C, altitude to 1000 m, temperature class T4, and insulation class ICLF. Application: plants with moderate heat and elevation where reliable continuous operation is essential. Gas Group IIB and Exdbeb protection meet industry safety standards, reducing risk during commissioning and operation. Business impact: improved compliance confidence and smoother changeovers for hazardous-area deployments.

FAQs
This motor uses IMB5 IM3001 mounting with a frame size 400 and D-connection configuration, supporting seamless retrofits in existing equipment. The Terminator Box is located at the D-End top, simplifying integration with legacy conveyors, pumps, or fans. It is designed for easy alignment with standard baseplates and vibration-damping mounts to reduce installation time and commissioning risk.
The motor is a 3-phase, 6-pole machine rated for 400 V at 50 Hz, delivering 450 kW with IE4 efficiency. It uses Exdbeb explosion protection, IP55 enclosure, and insulation class ICLF. IE4 full-load efficiency is 96.6%, with 96.4% at 75% load and 95.5% at 50% load, ensuring excellent energy performance across duty cycles.
Yes. It features Exdbeb flameproof protection and is rated for Gas Group IIB, offering reliable operation in hazardous areas. The IP55 enclosure provides robust dust and moisture protection, while the flameproof design minimizes ignition risk in explosive atmospheres. This makes it well-suited for oil&gas, chemical, and mining environments.
The 400-frame, robust cast-iron construction coupled with IMB5/IM3001 mounting improves retrofit compatibility and durability in tough plants. The IP55 rating reduces enclosure maintenance, and the Ex protection lowers the need for frequent enclosure-related interventions. With a weight around 3.3 metric tons, handling and on-site service planning become more predictable, supporting longer maintenance intervals.
The combination of IE4 efficiency, high reliability, and hazardous-area protection translates to lower energy bills and reduced downtime. While initial costs may be higher than non-hazardous-area motors, savings accrue through energy efficiency, longer MTBF, and faster commissioning in compliant facilities. For projects in chemical, refining, or mining sectors, the ROI is typically favorable due to energy and maintenance reductions over the motor’s life cycle.
