Exde flameproof protection combined with IP55 ingress protection and IC411 insulation delivers regulatory-compliant performance in hazardous environments, reducing risk and downtime for chemical, oil & gas, and mining facilities. This design translates into tangible business outcomes: safer installations, longer service intervals, and reduced total cost of ownership. The 8-pole, 400 frame, cast-iron construction provides high torque and rugged durability, ideal for conveyors, pumps, and fans in demanding sites. The motor’s 40 °C ambient rating and 1000 m altitude capability ensure consistent operation across a wide geographic footprint, while the gas group IIB classification supports safe use in flammable atmospheres. Bearing arrangements 6324/C3 and 6319/C3 underwrite reliability in continuous operation (S1), even in challenging service conditions. Mounting and compatibility are straightforward thanks to a robust IM class (IMB5 IM3001) and a universal 1-piece pallet packaging approach for safe transport. This combination reduces installation complexity and accelerates time-to-commission in new or refurbished plants.

FAQs
Yes. This motor is designed for hazardous locations with Exde flameproof protection and IP55, making it compatible with conventional variable frequency drives and control cabinets that support explosion-protected equipment. Ensure drive settings align with the motor’s single-speed S1 operation, and follow ABB installation guidelines for safe enclosure and cable entry in ATEX/IECEx environments.
Key specs include an 8-pole configuration, a 400 frame, cast-iron construction, and bearings 6324/C3 and 6319/C3. Electrical details show a voltage code of E, ambient temperature rating of 40 °C, altitude up to 1000 m, IC411 insulation, and IP55 protection. The motor operates in S1 (continuous) duty and is Exde-certified for flameproof service in gas groups IIB.
Yes. The M3KP IE2-based design provides steady performance under S1 duty, with robust cast-iron housing and flameproof Exde protection. The IP55 rating protects against dust and moisture, while IC411 insulation maintains reliability in demanding chemical processing environments. Always verify site-specific standards and wiring practices in your installation plan.
The motor features Exde flameproof protection, IP55 ingress protection, and IC411 insulation, with Gas Group IIB suitability. These characteristics align with ATEX/IECEx requirements for hazardous-area equipment, enabling safe operation in explosive atmospheres and simplifying regulatory compliance for global installations.
The rugged cast-iron frame, reliable bearings, and robust Exde protection extend service intervals and reduce unplanned downtime. Continuous operation, strong torque from the 8-pole design, and durable construction contribute to a lower cost of ownership over the motor’s life. ABB’s support ecosystem further helps with preventive maintenance schedules and spare-part availability to optimize uptime.
