IECEx Certified
15 January 2013
The full range of ABB IECEx/ATEX certified motors covers frame sizes 80 to 450, with power ratings of 0.55 to 950 kW.

The motors are rated at efficiency class IE2 at 400 V 50 Hz. The motors are available in 2 to 8 pole versions, in all protection classes. High-efficiency means savings in energy costs and reduced CO2 emissions, as well as increased safety, longer lifetime, lower maintenance, higher reliability and uninterrupted production.
A wide range of variants are available to meet the needs of the demanding chemical, oil and gas industry and of large end users both on- and off-shore. 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.
