ABB Marine Electric Motor
The ABB marine electric motor is designed with a rated power range from 0.75 kW to 1000 kW, making it ideal for heavy-duty marine applications such as ship propulsion systems, seawater pumps, and offshore cargo handling equipment. The three-phase ABB marine motor typically operates at voltages between 400 and 690 volts and supports frequencies of 50 or 60 Hz. It is available in high-efficiency classes IE3 and IE4, significantly reducing energy consumption during continuous operation. With thermal class F or H, cooling systems like IC411 or IC416, and perfectly balanced rotor and stator assemblies, these motors minimize vibration and extend operational life even under harsh marine conditions. The use of grease-lubricated bearings capable of handling both radial and axial loads makes them highly suitable for ambient temperatures up to 55°C and high relative humidity.
The ABB marine motor housing is made from ductile cast iron or marine-grade aluminum with an industrial epoxy coating, offering excellent resistance to corrosion from saltwater and marine atmospheres. Protection ratings ranging from IP56 to IP66 ensure safe and reliable performance against water ingress and airborne particles. These motors are engineered in compliance with international standards such as IEC 60034,
