The motor delivers 18 kW, 8-pole performance at 400 V and 50 Hz, with a Y connection for simplified wiring and controlled startup. This combination supports robust torque delivery and stable speed control for medium-load drives, such as pumps, fans, and conveyors in automated production lines. The IP55 enclosure and IC410 insulation protect against dust and moisture, reducing unscheduled downtime in dusty floors and humid environments, while the cast-iron frame (280) and bearing 6316/C3 extend bearing life and resist shock loads, lowering maintenance costs. IMB5/IM3001 mounting compatibility streamlines installation in retrofits and new builds, and the 1000 m altitude and 40 °C ambient rating enable deployment across diverse facilities without extra cooling or enclosure adaptations. The S9 duty class and bidirectional rotation support flexible conveyor and fan applications, helping plants meet energy targets and maintain consistent performance across shifts. Industry insight shows that combining reliability with ease of maintenance translates into measurable uptime gains and lower total cost of ownership for industrial motors like this 18 kW solution.

FAQs
Yes. This motor is designed for IMB5/IM3001 mounting and a Y-configured connection, operating at 400 V, 50 Hz. It features a Cast Iron frame size 280 and IP55 protection, enabling straightforward retrofit into existing drive trains and new installations without additional enclosure changes.
The motor shows a Full Load efficiency of 92.0% at 100% load, with Partial Load results of 91.3% at 75% load and 89.2% at 50% load. It operates under the S9 duty class for continuous, intermittent heavy-duty loads and features an 8-pole design suitable for steady torque in automated processes.
Ideal for pumps, fans, and conveyors in industrial automation and process plants. The 18 kW rating, IP55 enclosure, and IMB5/IM3001 mounting enable reliable operation in dusty or humid environments, with robust mechanical construction and a Y configuration that simplifies wiring during system upgrades or new installations.
The motor features IP55 protection and IC410 insulation, along with a cast-iron frame (280) and bearing 6316/C3. It operates at 400 V, 50 Hz with 8 poles and supports a 40 °C ambient temperature up to 1000 m altitude, ensuring suitability for demanding industrial environments and regulatory alignment for equipment used in automated facilities.
The heavy-duty construction (cast iron frame, robust bearings) reduces maintenance downtime and extends service life in challenging environments. With a 620 kg net weight and 640 kg gross weight, the unit remains stable under vibration, while the IP55 rating minimizes ingress-related wear. This translates to lower total cost of ownership through longer intervals between servicing and consistent industrial performance.
