ABB 3GLP353820-BDG 3-Phase Squirrel Cage Motor - IP55
Part Number: 3GLP353820-BDG
Quick Summary
ABB 3GLP353820-BDG is a water-cooled, 3-phase squirrel cage motor designed for demanding industrial drives such as pumps and compressors. The water cooling enables higher continuous loading and sustained performance in hot or enclosed environments, reducing derating and energy waste. This motor carries protection IP55, insulation class ICLF, and IEC IE2 efficiency, aligning with modern efficiency mandates while keeping reliability at the forefront. The design supports operation up to 40 °C ambient and up to 1000 m altitude, with a top-mounted terminator box for easier installation and maintenance. For engineers and procurement teams, this means predictable life-cycle costs, easier compliance, and faster deployment in critical processes.

Water cooling enables higher continuous loading with reduced thermal derating, improving output stability for demanding pumps and compressors. This translates to improved process stability and reduced downtime in hot plants or enclosed spaces. In practice, you can run heavier loads longer without compromising motor life. IE2 efficiency offers measurable energy savings under both full-load and partial-load conditions, contributing to faster ROI and lower heat rejection in the drive chain. IP55 enclosure protects the winding and bearings from dust and water ingress, increasing reliability in harsh environments such as washdown areas or outdoor installations. The welded steel 355 frame provides robust mechanical integrity, compatible with standard base plates for quick retrofits, while the top terminator box simplifies wiring and service. The six-pole, S1-rated motor delivers smooth torque and predictable speed for pumps and compressors, with easy sourcing (minimum order quantity 1 piece) and a high-quality Finland-origin build. Bearing arrangements (6322/C3 and 6316/C3) support long service life and reduced vibration on heavy-duty applications, and the combined net/gross weight informs vibration and handling considerations during installation.

FAQs
Yes. The 3GLP353820-BDG uses a 355 frame and 6 poles with a voltage code of D, designed for compatibility with common VFDs and control gear. A top-mounted terminator box simplifies wiring, while welded steel frame and IEC-based dimensions support straightforward mounting on standard bases. The data indicates a minimum order quantity of 1 piece and simplified packaging for quick procurement.
This motor meets IE2 efficiency, with full-load efficiency around 95% and strong partial-load performance. It carries IP55 protection and IC71W insulation, operates in ambient up to 40 °C and up to 1000 m altitude, and runs in S1 duty with a single-speed configuration, ensuring stable performance in continuous-service applications.
Yes. The water-cooled design mitigates thermal derating under high ambient conditions, while IP55 protection defends against dust and moisture. With a six-pole, 3-phase configuration, it provides stable torque and speed for pumps and compressors, and the top-terminator box reduces installation time and wiring complexity in demanding facilities.
Key validations include IE2 efficiency, IP55 protection, and insulation class ICLF with IC71W ratings. The motor is designed for continuous duty (S1) in environments up to 40 °C and 1000 m altitude, with Finland origin and customs tariff 85015394 supporting international procurement and compliance.
The motor uses robust bearings (6322/C3 and 6316/C3) and a welded frame to minimize wear and vibration, reducing maintenance needs. IE2 energy efficiency and water cooling contribute to lower operating costs, delivering a favorable return on investment over the motor’s service life in continuous-duty applications.
