ABB 7BCXL050342A Explosion Proof General Purpose - XP

Explosion Proof XPFC enclosure paired with a 56C steel frame provides a robust platform for hazardous locations. This design protects windings and terminals from dust, moisture, vapors, and explosive atmospheres, reducing unplanned downtime and maintenance costs in demanding environments. It also supports safe cable entries and simplified field wiring, enabling quicker, safer installations. For integrators, this combination translates into a lower risk profile during commissioning and ongoing operation in industries such as chemical processing, oil and gas, and mining. Performance is aligned with a 0.33 horsepower output at 115 V, 60 Hz, delivered by a four-pole design that yields 1725 RPM. The 56C frame supports common mounting schemes, while the one-phase configuration keeps control wiring straightforward on lightweight drives and fans. The motor’s insulation class is B, and the ambient rating is 40 °C, which balances temperature rise and efficiency in continuous duty service. With a 40 °C ambient rating, it maintains performance in typical plant environments, offering predictable torque and repeatable starts across shifts. Installation and compatibility are major business enablers. The C-face mounting pattern reduces alignment challenges when replacing legacy units or integrating new drives with existing housings and guards. The standard 1-piece minimum order quantity, combined with stock coverage across multiple warehouses, means procurement teams can secure parts without long lead times or rush freight. The XPFC designation also means compatibility with safety and electrical codes used in today’s hazardous-area projects. Procurement and stocking, as a critical business capability, are addressed by broad distribution. Stock is maintained across multiple warehouses with 0-day lead times for this model, and minimum order quantity is 1 piece. Multiple stocking locations include United States and China, enabling faster delivery, lower freight costs, and improved project scheduling. Customs tariff classification 85013100 ensures smoother cross-border shipments for international projects. From a maintenance and lifecycle perspective, the ABB 7BCXL050342A reduces downtime with rugged steel framing and 1-phase simplicity. The combination of XP explosion-proof protection, NEMA-aligned construction, and standard mounting simplifies compliance audits and long-term asset management. Engineers can forecast return on investment through reduced spare parts, faster replacements, and avoidance of retrofit work.
