Tens of thousands of pounds worth of lost production at chipboard manufacturer Sonae Industria, Merseyside, has been saved by ABB Drives Alliance Partner Central Electrical.
ABB manufactures a full range of EEx d and EEx de flameproof motors, covering IEC frame sizes 80-710 and power ratings of 0.55-4500kW, low and high voltage.
The new products represent the smaller-size end of the low voltage EEx d and EEx de range, frame sizes 80-132 and ratings of 0.55-7.5kW.
The new motors are supplied with loose feet as well as flange rings rather than flanges - design features that make installation and modification easier.
A 4 x 90 deg turnable terminal box is fitted as standard, the same box being used for all shaft heights.
The EEx de motors are fitted with a siliminium cable flange and EEx e approved cable glands as standard.
The new motors feature higher efficiency and lower temperature rise than previous versions and 3 x 150 deg C PTC thermistors are included.
2-pack epoxy paint is used, as in the motors for IEC frame sizes 160-400.
