FAQs
Yes, the motor is a 3-phase machine designed for continuous duty with a 4-pole configuration. Mounting and exact voltage compatibility should follow the ABB datasheet for the 500-frame, considering the Voltage Code U and the D-End right-side terminator box. For best results, use proper motor-mounted supports and compliant cabling to ensure IP55 integrity and thermal management.
The IE3 efficiency class is evidenced by the data: Full Load efficiency around 97.7%, Partial Load (75%) about 97.8%, and Partial Load (50%) around 97.7%. This indicates strong performance across operating points, contributing to energy savings in continuous-duty applications.
Yes. The product type is explicitly water-cooled, designed for sustained operation in high-heat environments. Its IP55 protection, IC71W insulation, and 4-pole configuration support heavy-duty processes and continuous automation lines where cooling and reliability are critical.
Key standards include IE3 energy efficiency, IP55 protection for dust and moisture resistance, and IC71W insulation class. It also carries a 4-pole IMB5 IM3001 mechanical class and a D-End right-side terminator box arrangement, aligning with typical industrial electrical standards.
Expect lower energy costs due to IE3 efficiency and reduced heat load from water cooling. The rugged bearings (6330M/C3 and 6326M/C3) and IP55 protection minimize maintenance needs in harsh environments, improving uptime. Plan for periodic inspections of bearings and cooling connections to maximize total cost of ownership savings.
