ABB 3GKP404520-BDG 3-Phase Squirrel Cage Motor - Exdbeb
Part Number: 3GKP404520-BDG
Quick Summary
ABB 3GKP404520-BDG 3-Phase Squirrel Cage Motor drives hazardous-zone processes with reliable flameproof performance. It is designed for explosion-protected installations in oil, gas, and chemical facilities, where downtime is costly and safety is non-negotiable. Manufacturers often battle maintenance complexity, regulatory scrutiny, and variable loads that erode efficiency. This motor meets IP55 protection, IC411 insulation, and Exdbeb flameproof standards, providing robust performance in challenging environments and long service life at 40 Ā°C ambient and up to 1000 m altitude. Its 8-pole design delivers steady torque across full-load and partial-load conditions, while its cast-iron frame and top terminator box simplify installation and service. Energy efficiency, standardization with IE2, and a compact 400 frame help reduce life-cycle costs and spare-part inventories.

Feature ā Exdbeb flameproof protection with Gas Group IIB provides safe operation in explosion-hazard zones. This capability lowers risk, simplifies regulatory compliance, and reduces insurance costs for continuous-duty motors in refineries, chemical plants, or LNG facilities. Application examples include offshore platforms and on-shore processing lines where ignition protection is non-negotiable. Feature ā IP55 enclosure and IC411 insulation withstand harsh ambient conditions, dust, and humidity. Business impact: longer intervals between service calls, fewer unplanned outages, and preserved torque characteristics at 40 Ā°C ambient. Application: manufacturing floors and outdoor installations in arid or dusty environments common to metals processing and EPC projects. Feature ā IE2 efficiency for an 8-pole 400-frame induction motor reduces energy use across full-load and partial-load ranges (IE2: Full Load 93.5 %, Partial Load 75 % 93.8 %, 50 % 93.3 %). Business impact: lower operating costs, reduced CO2 footprint, and improved life-cycle economics for pumps, fans, and compressors. Application: continuous-process lines and HVAC systems in hazardous environments. Feature ā Cast-iron frame and top terminator box enable rugged installation with ease and long service life. Business impact: simpler retrofits, faster commissioning, and minimal vibration-induced wear. Application: retrofits in aging plants and new-builds requiring durable construction in ATEX/IECEx zones. Feature ā 8-pole, 3-phase design with flameproof Ex db eb protection delivers reliable torque and startup performance under S1 duty. Business impact: predictable control for conveyors, mixers, and agitators in hazardous areas, improving process stability and uptime. Application: chemical processing, mining, and oil-field automation.

FAQs
This motor is designed for Ex protection in hazard zones, featuring Exdbeb flameproof protection and IP55 enclosure. Recommend mounting on a robust base, top terminator box wiring, and compliance with ATEX/IECEx installation guidelines. Check ambient limits (40 Ā°C, up to 1000 m), ensure proper clearance for cooling, and verify cable glands and sealing meet protection standards to maintain safety and performance.
The motor achieves IE2 efficiency and is rated for continuous S1 duty. IE2 data reflects Full Load efficiency around 93.5%, with 75% and 50% partial-load values near 93.8% and 93.3% respectively, supporting steady energy performance across operating points for pumps, fans, and conveyors in hazardous environments.
Yes. Designed for hazardous zones, it carries Exdbeb flameproof protection, Gas Group IIB, IP55, and IC411 insulation, making it appropriate for oil, gas, and chemical processing applications. Its rugged 400 frame and cast-iron construction support reliable operation in demanding sites with variable ambient conditions.
Key certifications include Exdbeb flameproof protection, Gas Group IIB, IP55 protection, and IC411 insulation. These align with ATEX and IECEx standards, simplifying regulatory approvals, reducing site risk, and facilitating safer, compliant installations in critical hazardous-area drives.
Energy efficiency of IE2 lowers operating costs, while a rugged cast-iron frame and top terminator box reduce maintenance and commissioning time. The motorās durability supports longer service intervals, less downtime, and lower spare-part inventories, delivering favorable total-cost-of-ownership for continuous-process applications in hazardous environments.
