Key Features of the 3DX 132S2-2
1. Explosion Proof Construction for Hazardous Zones
Designed with a flameproof enclosure, the 3DX 132S2-2 prevents any internal sparks, arcs, or hot gases from igniting the surrounding explosive atmosphere. Certified for Zone 1 (Category 2G) and Zone 2 (Category 3G) environments, it meets the stringent safety demands of ATEX and IECEx standards.
2. Powerful and Consistent Performance
With 7.5 kW of output at 50 Hz and 8.6 kW at 60 Hz, this motor can handle continuous heavy-duty industrial loads. The high torque ratios—2.3 for starting and 2.5 for pull-out—provide stable and reliable operation even under fluctuating load conditions.
3. High Energy Efficiency
The 3DX 132S2-2 achieves up to 91.0% efficiency at part-load operation and 90.3% at full load, ensuring reduced energy consumption and operating costs. In the UAE’s competitive industrial sector, this translates to measurable savings over the motor’s lifetime.
4. Robust Starting Capability
A starting current ratio of 8.0 enables the motor to deliver the necessary torque to start high-inertia equipment without performance drop-offs, ensuring dependable operation during system restarts or load spikes.
5. Low Noise & Minimal Vibration
Noise levels of 79 dB(A) and vibration ≤ 1.3 mm/s help maintain a safe, comfortable work environment and extend the service life of connected equipment.
6. Rugged Design for Harsh Conditions
Weighing 102 kg with a moment of inertia of 0.020 kg·m², this motor is built for mechanical durability and long service life in tough industrial conditions, including high ambient temperatures up to +45°C.
