Ex protection with Exdbeb flameproof design provides safer operation in hazardous environments, reducing personnel risk and enabling regulatory compliance while supporting continuous production in chemical plants, refineries, and mining sites. The business impact is lower incident risk and fewer shutdowns, which translates to higher plant availability and predictable maintenance windows. This model’s 560 kW output at 400 V, 50 Hz delivers strong torque with a compact footprint, enabling retrofit or new builds without excessive footprint expansion. IE3 premium efficiency reduces energy consumption and operating costs, with typical full-load efficiency around 95.8%, supporting faster payback on capital investment. The rugged cast iron frame (Size 400) and bearings 6324/C3 and 6319/C3 paired with IMB5/IM3001 mounting offer long bearing life and reduced maintenance intervals, improving total cost of ownership. Top termination box placement simplifies wiring and service, while IP55 enclosure and T4 class insulation ensure safe operation in ambient temperatures up to 40 °C and altitudes up to 1000 m. This motor is designed for continuous S1 duty in demanding processes, delivering reliable performance with industry-standard mounting and compatibility.

FAQs
This motor uses a 6-pole, 400 mm frame with IMB5 IM3001 mounting and a top termination box, facilitating straightforward integration with standard European drive trains. Ensure compatible mechanical mounting, correct alignment, and proper cabling to the D connection configuration. Check ambient and altitude limits (up to 40 °C and 1000 m) to preserve insulation integrity and performance.
IE3 efficiency is verified at full load values around 95.8% for 50 Hz operation, with similar performance at partial loads (75% and 50%). This translates to meaningful energy savings in continuous duty applications such as pumps and fans, reducing operating costs over the motor’s life.
Yes. The motor is Exdbeb protected with IP55 enclosure and Gas Group IIB ratings, designed for explosive atmospheres. Its flameproof construction and insulation class ICFL support reliable operation in chemical and refinery environments while maintaining safe installation practices.
Key protections include Exdbeb explosion protection, IP55 enclosure, and ICFL insulation with a 6-pole design for continuous duty. While the data highlights these features, verify CE marking and local compliance requirements for your region; these protections align with global safety standards for hazardous-area electric motors.
The IE3 efficiency, robust cast-iron frame, top-access termination, and reliable bearings support longer service intervals and reduced energy costs. In practice, operators see lower annual energy consumption, fewer unscheduled outages, and a quicker return on investment when deployed on continuous-process drives in hazardous environments.
