Feature 1: 200 HP, 1785 RPM, 3PH input with a broad 10-60 Hz capability. Business Impact: Delivers strong, consistent torque across variable-speed applications, reducing startup transients and supporting higher line productivity. Application: Ideal for heavy-duty conveyors and pumps in packaging lines and material handling systems, where reliable acceleration and steady torque improve line throughput. Long-tail keywords: high horsepower motor, 3-phase high torque motor, variable-frequency compatible motor. Feature 2: Shaft Ground construction for bearing protection and reduced electrical noise. Business Impact: Lowers bearing wear and electrical discharge damage, extending motor life and lowering maintenance costs. Application: Critical in mills, grinders, and high-harmonic environments where bearing currents jeopardize reliability. Long-tail keywords: shaft-grounded motor, bearing protection motor, low-noise industrial motor. Feature 3: Ready-to-ship stock with 0 day lead time and dual-continental stocking (China and Alabama, USA). Business Impact: Accelerates project onboarding, minimizes downtime, and improves project scheduling accuracy. Application: Fast-rack replacement or new line commissioning for global manufacturers with regional service needs. Long-tail keywords: fast-shipping motor, US stock motor, global supply chain resilient motor. Feature 4: USA-origin manufacturing and ABB support network. Business Impact: Facilitates local service, faster parts replacement, and more straightforward regulatory alignment. Application: Facilities requiring regional service contracts or quick on-site support for maintenance windows. Long-tail keywords: USA-made industrial motor, ABB support network, regulatory-compliant motor. Feature 5: Robust physical attributes (weight and enclosure considerations) support heavy-duty installation and compatibility with standard ABB drives. Business Impact: Easier integration with existing drive systems and reduced installation risk. Application: Retrofit projects and new builds across manufacturing floors with established ABB drive ecosystems. Long-tail keywords: heavy-duty motor installation, 445TCZ frame considerations, drive compatibility.

FAQs
Begin with proper mounting alignment and secure the motor to a rigid base to minimize vibration. Connect the 3-phase power through a suitable VFD or directly to the supply, ensuring appropriate overload protection and motor protection devices are in place. Use the shaft-ground path as specified to minimize bearing currents, and verify the 10-60 Hz input range is configured for your process. Confirm stock availability and lead time with local warehouses to ensure a smooth commissioning schedule.
The 200 horsepower rating translates to approximately 149 kW of continuous output, while 1785 RPM is a standard high-speed rating for 60 Hz systems, providing strong torque at modest speeds. This combo supports high-throughput conveyors and pumps with reliable startup characteristics. When integrating with a VFD, ensure proper derating for ambient temperature and enclosure conditions to maintain efficiency and longevity.
Yes. The 200 HP class, 1785 RPM speed, and 3-phase input are well-suited for demanding packaging-line applications requiring precise torque control and reliable uptime. The shaft-ground design helps protect bearings in high-current or high-harmonic environments, and the availability from US and China stock reduces downtime during line upgrades or expansions.
Certification requirements vary by market. Typical considerations include CE marking for Europe and UL/CSA listings for North America, as well as IP ratings for enclosure protection. For this model, consult the ABB datasheet or your regional distributor to confirm current certification status and any region-specific documentation needed for installation and commissioning.
The product carries ABB-backed support with a warranty framework and return policy: warranty claims require return of the defective product. With 0-day lead time stock in US and China, reduced downtime and faster maintenance cycles improve overall equipment effectiveness (OEE). The motor's shaft-grounding design also reduces bearing wear, lowering maintenance costs over the motor’s life.
