YBX4 Explosion-Proof Motor

The YD series is a pole-changing, multi-speed three-phase induction motor designed for equipment requiring selectable operating speeds. Available in two-, three-, and four-speed configurations, the series covers catalog-listed outputs from 0.35 to 82 kW, depending on the model and speed setting.What information is required to select a YE3 motor?
Product Overview
The YBX4 series is a high-efficiency flameproof three-phase induction motor designed for applications requiring explosion protection. The catalog states IE4 efficiency at 50 Hz and Grade 2 energy efficiency under GB 18613-2020.
Catalog-listed models cover frame sizes H80–H355 and outputs from 0.18 to 315 kW. The series features Class F insulation, IP55 enclosure protection, IC411 cooling, and S1 continuous duty.
Select the motor according to the required power, speed, supply voltage, mounting arrangement, and operating conditions. For hazardous locations, confirm that the supplied motor’s explosion-protection marking and certificate match the site requirements.
Before installation or replacement, verify the shaft dimensions, mounting interfaces, overall size, and cable-entry requirements using the model-specific drawings and documentation.ration.

Frequently Asked Questions

Provide the required power, voltage, frequency, speed, mounting arrangement, and operating duty. For hazardous locations, include the site classification and required explosion-protection marking.

No. Suitability depends on the exact protection marking, equipment group, temperature class, equipment protection level, and certificate. Confirm these against the site requirements before selection.

The catalog states IE4 efficiency at 50 Hz and Grade 2 under GB 18613-2020. Check the efficiency data and supporting documentation for the selected model.

The detailed technical tables list 380/660 V at 50 Hz. Other voltage configurations are mentioned in the catalog, but availability and corresponding ratings must be confirmed.

Check the electrical ratings, starting performance, shaft dimensions, mounting interfaces, overall size, and cable entries. For hazardous locations, the replacement must also meet the required explosion-protection classification.bility.
