Energy efficiency and continuous operation drive cost savings: The motor’s IE2 efficiency achieves Full Load around 94.7% and Partial Load around 94.8% at 75% load, delivering measurable energy reductions in daily pumping, ventilation, and material handling tasks. This translates to lower electricity bills and improved overall plant performance. The robust IP55 protection and IC71W insulation provide reliable operation in dusty and damp environments, reducing unplanned downtime in conveyors and process lines while extending motor life. The aluminum frame and 280 mm frame size offer a lightweight yet durable solution that fits tight spaces, enabling faster installations and easier maintenance. A water-cooled design enhances heat management in high-load scenarios, supporting higher torque density without overheating. IMB5 IM3001 mounting, top terminator box, and 2-pole operation simplify integration with existing drives and switchgear, reducing wiring errors and installation time. The motor’s S1 duty rating ensures continuous operation, making it ideal for pumps, fans, and conveyors in manufacturing settings. Overall, this ABB motor supports lower total cost of ownership, improved maintenance planning, and scalable drive architectures for future expansion.

FAQs
The motor is IE2-rated, with Full Load efficiency around 94.7% and Partial Loads near 94.8% at 75% load. This level of efficiency lowers energy consumption in continuous-duty applications such as pumps and conveyors, delivering measurable monthly and annual cost savings and a reduced carbon footprint.
Yes, the IP55 rating provides protection against dust ingress and water jets, making it suitable for damp, dusty, or wash-down environments typically found in packaging, process, and manufacturing facilities. This reduces enclosure maintenance and downtime in harsh spaces.
Yes. The water-cooled design is a key differentiator in this model, enabling higher torque density and improved heat management under heavy loads. Ensure the coolant circuit is correctly sized and protected, and follow standard safety practices for coolant handling and leakage prevention.
It uses a 280-frame aluminum housing with IMB5 IM3001 mounting and a top terminator box for straightforward wiring. The 2-pole configuration supports robust starting torque, while the standard frame and mounting simplify integration with existing drives and power electronics.
Ideal for pumps, fans, and conveyors in industrial settings that require continuous operation (S1 duty) and reliable performance under 40 °C ambient conditions. Expect lower energy costs due to IE2 efficiency, reduced maintenance downtime thanks to robust IP55/IC71W construction, and a clear path to scalable drive systems that support future expansion.
