Ex protection and flameproof design delivers safety and regulatory compliance, reducing hazardous-zone risk and potential equipment damage. In practice, the Exdbeb enclosure supports safe startup and long-term reliability in demanding environments. This makes it ideal for chemical plants, refineries, and offshore facilities where shutdowns are costly. Premium IE3 efficiency translates to measurable energy savings and a smaller cooling footprint. With full-load efficiency around 94.6% at 50 Hz and up to 95.0% at 60 Hz, running costs are significantly lower than older motor generations, especially for pumps, fans, and compressors. Robust mechanical design uses a cast-iron frame size 400 and 8 poles, delivering consistent torque and reliability across S1 duty in tough industrial settings. Ease of installation is aided by IMB3/IM1001 enclosure mounting and a top termination box, reducing commissioning time and maintenance access. The motor’s electrical compatibility with 500 V, 50 Hz supplies, D connection, IP55 protection, and IC411 insulation supports operation in ambient temperatures up to 40 °C and up to 1000 m altitude, enabling flexible site deployment. Long-term maintenance planning is simplified by proven bearing configurations 6324/C3 and 6319/C3 and standard dimensions, minimizing downtime and inventory variety. This combination of rugged build and global support reinforces a lifecycle approach to capital projects and plant modernization initiatives.

FAQs
Installation should follow ATEX/IECEx-compliant practices for Ex areas. Use the IMB3/IM1001 mounting arrangement, route cables to the top terminal box, and verify D‑type connection for 500 V 50 Hz supplies. Ensure IP55 protection, proper sealing, and correct alignment to avoid vibration. The motor’s 8-pole, 315 kW rating suits pumps, fans, or compressors in hazardous zones, reducing commissioning time when installed with standard ABB mounting kits.
The motor features Exdbeb flameproof protection, IIB gas group rating, and a rugged IP55 enclosure with IC411 insulation. These protections prevent ignition from internal faults, protect against dust and moisture, and maintain insulation integrity under 40 °C ambient and up to 1000 m altitude, ensuring safe operation in chemical plants, refineries, and mining environments.
Yes. The motor is designed for a 500 V, 50 Hz three-phase supply with a D connection configuration. It is rated for continuous S1 duty and aligns with premium IE3 efficiency metrics, delivering high torque at startup and reliable operation across typical industrial loading profiles in process industries.
This model combines Ex protection (Exdbeb), IIB gas group, IP55 ingress protection, and IC411 insulation class. It adheres to IE3 premium efficiency standards for low-voltage motors and is designed for safe operation in hazardous zones, with mounting compatible with IMB3/IM1001 and top access termination for straightforward service.
The IE3 efficiency rating reduces energy costs, offsetting initial capital expenditure over time, with improvements in cooling and reduced energy-related emissions. Maintenance is streamlined by a robust cast-iron frame and standard bearings (6324/C3, 6319/C3), plus simple wiring and top-termination access, resulting in lower downtime and improved lifecycle cost for critical processes.
