FAQs

This motor uses Exdbeb flameproof protection and an IP55 enclosure, with IMB5/IM3001 mounting for reliable outdoor or dirty-room installations. For best results, mount on a rigid base, connect via the D configuration, and ensure adequate clearance for cooling. In 50 Hz environments, wiring should reflect a 500 V supply with proper protective earth and circuit protection, following local ATEX/IECEx requirements.
At 50 Hz, the motor delivers IE3 full-load efficiency around 94.6% with 8 poles and 400 kW output. Partial-load performance remains high (~94.4–94.8%), supporting energy savings during variable demand. Designed for S1 duty with a robust IP55 enclosure, this motor maintains torque and temperature within class constraints during continuous operation.
Yes. The Exdbeb flameproof protection, IP55 rating, IIB gas group capability, and IMB5/IM3001 mounting suit mining and conveyor installations. Frame size 400 and 8 poles provide strong starting torque and reliable speed control, while the 500 V, 50 Hz supply matches common mine or processing plant electrical systems.
The motor is rated Exdbeb for flameproof protection, IP55 for dust and moisture resistance, and IC411 insulation, supporting safe operation in hazardous areas. It also meets IE3 efficiency standards and uses a robust cast iron frame with protective mounting options. These features collectively address safety, regulatory compliance, and long-term reliability in demanding environments.
The premium IE3 efficiency reduces energy consumption and operating costs over traditional IE2 motors, delivering faster payback on large installations. Cast iron construction and proven bearings (6324/C3, 6319/C3) extend service life, lowering maintenance cycles. Its flameproof design minimizes downtime due to protective failures, ensuring consistent production in hazardous facilities.
