YFBBPX3 Series High-Efficiency Dust Ignition-Proof Variable-Frequency Three-Phase Induction Motor

Variable-speed drive in a combustible dust atmosphere: enclosure "t" protection, IP65, and separate forced cooling so the low end of the range stays within the surface temperature limit.

YFBBPX3 dust ignition-proof variable-frequency three-phase induction motor

YFBBPX3 is a totally enclosed high-efficiency dust ignition-proof variable-frequency three-phase induction motor, meeting grade 3 of GB 18613—2020 and built to GB/T 3836.1-2021, GB/T 3836.31-2021 and the company standard Q/1083 SLJ 049-2022 for frames 80 to 355.

Constant torque runs 3 to 50 Hz and constant power 50 to 100 Hz (50 to 60 Hz on some ratings). Cooling is IC416.

Forced cooling matters more here than on an ordinary drive application. In a dust atmosphere the protection concept rests on a maximum surface temperature; a machine that loses cooling as it slows down is walking towards that limit exactly when the drive is asking it to keep producing torque.

Standards and certification

  • GB/T 3836.1-2021
  • GB/T 3836.31-2021 (protection by enclosure "t")
  • Q/1083 SLJ 049-2022 (frames 80–355)
  • GB 18613—2020 grade 3

Typical applications

  • Variable-speed dust collection fans and material handling in combustible dust areas
  • Process plant handling grain, coal dust, metal powder or cement where speed control is needed

Selection guide

Dust protection is a surface temperature promise. A shaft-mounted fan slows with the motor, so at low frequency the machine can still be at full torque with a fraction of the airflow. IC416 keeps the cooling constant across the range, which is what keeps the T135 °C marking honest in service.
Ex tb IIIC is a dust rating. If the area is also classified for explosive gas, the machine needs to satisfy both, which is a different specification. Send us the full area classification.

FAQ

Certification copies for the explosion-protection marking, and the dimension drawings for your frame size, are issued on request. Tell us the area classification, gas or dust group and temperature class for your site.
