Feature → Business Impact → Application. Water-cooled design enables higher thermal capacity, reducing temperature rise during peak loads and enabling longer continuous operation in pumps and conveyors. This translates to improved uptime, increased production throughput, and lower risk of thermal derailment in hot plants. Application: heavy-duty pumping stations and material handling lines in challenging environments. IP55 protection and IC71W insulation provide robust ingress protection and insulation performance, reducing maintenance interruptions from dust and moisture and enabling outdoor or semi-indoor installations. Application: metal processing and mining facilities where dust and splash are common. IE3 efficiency delivers energy savings across variable loads, reducing electricity costs and helping meet corporate sustainability targets. Application: large fans, pumps, and compressing trains with mixed load profiles. Weighing in on mechanical integrity, the welded steel frame and 450 frame size offer rigidity, vibration damping, and straightforward mounting in retrofit projects. Application: retrofit of legacy lines or new builds requiring solid foundation and predictable alignment. Bearing arrangements (6326/C3 and 6322/C3) and IM class IMB3 IM1001 maximize bearing life and ease maintenance, minimizing unplanned downtime. Application: uptime-critical conveyors and press lines. Altitude and ambient tolerance (1000 m, 40 °C) expand installation options to remote facilities or offshore sites. Application: regional plants and remote automation projects. Dual-direction rotation flexibility supports multiple drive layouts, simplifying installation and spare-part logistics. Application: reversible belt conveyors and reversible pump trains. Duty class S1 ensures continuous operation for long-running processes with stable torque curves. Application: continuous manufacturing lines with constant load.

FAQs
This motor uses a welded steel frame (450) with IMB3 IM1001 mounting and D-End right side terminator box. Plan for dual-direction rotation capability and IP55 protection in dusty or damp environments. Verify bearing access (6326/C3, 6322/C3) and ensure proper alignment with compatible variable speed drives and control cabinets to maintain performance and uptime.
The motor supports IE Class data with Full Load efficiency around 97% and Partial Load at 75% and 50% closely matching (about 97.1-97.3%). It is a 4-pole, S1 duty, 3-phase machine designed for continuous operation under ambient 40 °C and up to 1000 m altitude, delivering reliable torque across operating points.
Yes. Its IP55 protection, ICFL insulation, and water-cooled design make it well-suited for harsh environments, including dusty and humid production floors. The 4-pole configuration provides appropriate speeds for pumps and conveyors, while the welded frame and robust bearings support long service life in continuous operation scenarios.
The motor features IP55 protection, IC71W insulation class, and IMB3 IM1001 mounting class. It is designed for 1000 m altitude and 40 °C ambient, with a dual-rotation capability. The unit is categorized under large equipment WEEE category 4 and UNSPSC 26101100, aligning with industry and regulatory expectations for industrial motors.
Expect long bearing life from 6326/C3 and 6322/C3 assemblies and reliable IMB3 mounting. Water cooling helps maintain steady performance, reducing thermal cycling and wear. ROI improves through energy savings from IE3 efficiency, reduced downtime due to IP55 protection, and extended service life in demanding production lines.
