Feature → Business Impact → Application: The motor uses an 8-pole design and welded steel frame (Frame 450) to deliver strong starting torque and rugged durability. This translates into reduced maintenance cycles and lower downtime for heavy-duty pumps and compressors in process lines across demanding environments. Feature: IP55 protection and IC71W insulation allow safe operation in dusty, washdown, and high-temperature settings. Business impact: protection from ingress and long insulation life extend service intervals and reliability. Application: food, chemical, and water treatment plants where moisture and debris are present. Feature: IE2 efficiency rating (Full Load 93.5%, Partial Load ~93.9%) reduces energy consumption and cooling load, cutting operating costs for continuous-drive systems. Application: fans, pumps, and compressors with steady or variable loads. Feature: 3LP2__water_cooled_motor_IE2 compatibility and D-end terminator box orientation simplify integration, enabling consistent cooling and maintenance workflows. Application: high-density industrial systems with tight enclosure constraints. Feature: 6326/C3 bearing and 6322/C3 NDE, IMB5 IM3001, and 450-frame welded steel housing deliver long-life reliability. Business impact: lower total cost of ownership and predictable maintenance intervals for critical assets like process pumps and mixers.

FAQs
Yes. This water-cooled motor is designed for integrated cooling alongside a compatible water circuit. Plan for a suitable heat exchanger, water supply pressure, and temperature controls. The unit uses a D-End right-side terminator box and a 450-frame footprint, so ensure adequate clearance, secure mounting, and alignment with pump or compressor drivers for reliable cooling and service access.
The motor features 8 poles, IE2 efficiency, IP55 protection, and a voltage code D. It operates under S1 duty with a 40 °C ambient rating up to 1000 m altitude. With a welded steel frame (450) and bearings 6326/C3 and 6322/C3, it delivers steady torque, protection against environmental ingress, and long service life in demanding industrial drives.
Absolutely. The 3LP2__water_cooled_IE2 motor is intended for continuous operation (S1), delivering high starting torque and robust cooling for pumps and compressors. Its IP55 rating protects against dust and moisture, while the 8-pole design provides favorable speed-torque characteristics, making it well-suited for process lines, chemical plants, and water treatment facilities.
The motor carries IP55 ingress protection, IE2 efficiency, and IC71W insulation class, which support safe, efficient operation in dirty or humid environments. Additional standards include the IC class and welded steel frame construction, with a Finnish origin. This combination helps meet regulatory requirements for industrial equipment in many regions.
Expected benefits include lower energy costs from IE2 efficiency, longer bearing life from robust frame and bearing choices (6326/C3, 6322/C3), and reduced downtime due to high IP55 protection and reliable water cooling. Over the life cycle, this translates to a favorable return on investment through energy savings and lower maintenance expenses for heavy-duty assets.
