Flameproof Exdbeb protection combined with IP55 enclosure provides robust safe operation in explosive atmospheres, reducing risk and enabling compliant installation in ATEX zones. This directly lowers insurance and downtime costs while simplifying engineering approval cycles for hazardous-area projects in chemical processing, oil & gas, and mining applications. IE3 premium efficiency at 315 kW under 500 V reduces energy consumption and operating costs during continuous S1 duty, delivering measurable ROI in long-running drive lines and pumps. The cast-iron frame, 8 poles, and Frame Size 400 deliver mechanical durability and high torque, supporting heavy-duty loads with minimal vibration and longer service life. IMB5 / IM3001 mounting facilitates rapid integration with standard baselines and existing equipment footprints, while the top-terminator box location streamlines wiring and maintenance in tight spaces. The motor’s 40 °C ambient rating and 1000 m altitude tolerance extend its applicability across diverse plant environments, ensuring reliable performance where ambient conditions vary. This combination also supports compliance with IP55, IC411 insulation, and Ex protection requirements without the need for additional enclosure upgrades, helping you optimize total cost of ownership and spare-part planning.

FAQs
This motor is designed for hazardous-area environments requiring explosion protection (Exdbeb) and a robust IP55 enclosure. It supports IMB5/IM3001 mounting and top-terminator wiring, making it compatible with standard industrial baselines in chemical, oil & gas, and mining facilities. Its 8-pole, 315 kW rating at 500 V suits high-torque, continuous-duty applications.
Key electrical specs include 315 kW output at 500 V, 50 Hz, and 8 poles. It uses a D connection configuration, has an insulation class ICFL, IE3 efficiency, and an Ex protection level Exdbeb. The motor operates under ambient temperatures up to 40 °C and up to 1000 m altitude, with IP55 enclosure and a frame size 400.
Yes. It features Exdbeb flameproof protection suitable for ATEX/IECEx hazardous areas, plus an IP55 enclosure and IIB gas group compatibility. The design supports safe operation in explosive atmospheres, reducing the need for additional protective enclosures and facilitating regulatory compliance in plants handling flammable gases.
IE3 efficiency delivers meaningful energy savings over standard IE2 motors in continuous-duty service, lowering running costs for pumps and fans. Coupled with reliable flameproof protection and robust mechanical design, it reduces maintenance downtime and extends service intervals, contributing to a quicker payback, especially in high-demand, hazardous-area operations.
Plan for IMB5 IM3001 mounting and top-terminal box wiring to simplify installation. The cast-iron frame, bearings (6324/C3 and 6319/C3), and 8-pole configuration support durability under vibration and thermal cycling. Consider ambient conditions (40 °C, 1000 m altitude) and ensure ATEX/IECEx documentation is current to sustain compliance and minimize unexpected service events.
