FAQs
Yes. This 3-phase squirrel cage motor uses a standard IMB5 IM3001 mounting class and a D-End right-side termination box, making it compatible with common VFDs and coupling arrangements used in industrial drives. It supports straightforward retrofits into existing frames and aligns with typical 450-frame bolt patterns for minimal site disruption.
The motor delivers IE3 efficiency with Full Load (100%) at 95.8%, and favorable partial-load performance (75%: 96.1%, 50%: 96.0%). It is rated IP55 and designed for ambient up to 40 °C and altitude up to 1000 m, providing reliable torque and reduced cooling requirements under typical process loads.
Ideal for heavy industrial drives such as pumps, fans, conveyors, and rolling/forming equipment. Its water-cooled design and 6-pole configuration suit high-load, continuous operation in metal processing, cement, mining, and paper production where energy efficiency, robustness, and thermal management are critical.
The motor features IE3 efficiency, IP55 protection, and Insulation Class ICLF, with IC71W service considerations. These certifications and protections support reliability in harsh environments, meet energy-utility requirements, and simplify regulatory compliance for industrial automation projects.
Expect longer intervals between maintenance thanks to sealed IP55 protection and robust bearings (6326/C3). The energy savings from IE3 efficiency translate to lower operating costs, while the water-cooled design helps maintain performance under high ambient temperatures, contributing to a favorable total cost of ownership in repetitive process cycles.
