Hello John, got a new high- efficiency motor?

01-Jan-2012

ABB can now offer a complete range of high-efficiency motors for explosive atmospheres since the launch of its IE2 motors in frame sizes 80 to 132.

The full range of ABB IECEx/ATEX certified motors now covers frame sizes 80 to 450, with power ratings of 0.55kW to 950kW. The motors are rated at efficiency class IE2 at 400V 50Hz.

The motors are available in two- to eight-pole versions, in all protection classes. High-efficiency means reduced energy costs and lower emissions with increased safety, longer lifetime, lower maintenance, higher reliability and uninterrupted production.

The motors offer insulation class F as standard and are rated temperature rise class B. Following ABB recommendations for variable speed drive (VSD) duty, the standard motor is suitable for VSDs up to 500V.

The existing design has been upgraded to offer an improved fastening of the fan cover on sizes 80 to 112 to prevent vibration problems, while detachable forged steel feet offer maximum durability and superior shock resistance.
