Flameproof protection is designed to prevent ignition in hazardous environments, reducing risk and enabling compliant operation in IIB gas groups. This directly lowers downtime costs and supports safer maintenance windows in chemical, oil & gas, and metal-processing plants. The business impact is clear: safer installations, fewer shutdowns, and easier regulatory adherence by leveraging Ex db eb certification and robust enclosure IP55. The IE2 efficiency class translates to measurable energy savings at full and part loads, with typical improvements in operating costs for continuous-duty applications. The 400 frame, cast iron construction, and 6-pole design deliver durability against vibration and thermal cycling, enabling longer service life in demanding facilities while maintaining stable torque and speed profiles. Installation is simplified by a top terminator box location and standardized mounting on common bases, reducing commissioning time and enabling seamless integration with ABB drives for centralized control. With ambient temperature tolerance to 40 °C and altitude up to 1000 m, this motor maintains performance in a wide range of plant environments, supporting reliable operation across multiple sites.

FAQs
This motor features Exdbeb flameproof protection and IP55 enclosure, making it suitable for hazardous locations. Mounting with a 400 frame cast iron body and top-terminator box simplifies wiring and reduces installation time. Ensure compliant cable entries and junction boxes per local codes, and verify scene-specific input voltages and ambient limits before commissioning.
IE2 efficiency ratings indicate higher efficiency across full and partial loads, typically reducing energy consumption and heat generation. For continuous-duty S1 operation, this translates to lower electrical bills, better thermal management, and improved total cost of ownership, especially in processes with frequent start/stop cycles or long runtimes.
Yes. The motor is Exdbeb flameproof and rated for Gas Group IIB, addressing explosion risk in hazardous areas. The device also meets IP55 protection and ICFL insulation standards, providing robust enclosure protection and insulation performance suitable for demanding industrial applications.
Key components include the cast iron frame, bearings 6324/C3 and 6319/C3, and the IMB5 IM3001 mounting class, which support longevity under vibration and thermal cycling. Regular inspections should monitor bearing clearance, insulation condition, and terminal wiring, while keeping an eye on lubricants and sealing integrity to maintain peak reliability.
The combination of Ex flameproof protection, IP55 enclosure, and IE2 efficiency reduces downtime and energy costs. Integrating with ABB drives enables precise speed control, predictive maintenance data, and scalable automation, which together shorten payback periods and improve uptime in hazardous-area facilities such as chemical processing, oil & gas, and metal fabrication.
