Ex tb IIIB T130°C Db

Explosion-proof enclosure for Class IIIB combustible dust environments

Suitable for non-conductive combustible dust environments in Zones 21 and 22, specifically for fibrous and fluffy dusts classified as IIIB (excluding IIIC). Select according to the specific dust type present on-site.

Filter products at this level

Explosion-proof marking explanation: "Ex" denotes explosion-proof; "d" indicates a flameproof enclosure; "tb" signifies an enclosure protection type (for dust explosion-proof). "I", "IIA", "IIB", and "IIC" represent applicable gas groups, while "IIIA", "IIIB", and "IIIC" indicate applicable dust categories. "T1–T6" or "T130°C" specifies the temperature class and maximum surface temperature. "Mb", "Gb", and "Db" denote equipment protection levels. When selecting equipment, verify based on the site's hazardous area classification (gas zones 1, 2 or dust zones 21, 22), medium group, and temperature class.

Select by number of poles

View Full Parameter Table

The number of poles determines the motor's synchronous speed (n = 60f / p, where f is supply frequency and p is pole pairs). At 50Hz: 2-pole = 3000 r/min, 4-pole = 1500 r/min, 6-pole = 1000 r/min, 8-pole = 750 r/min. Actual speed is slightly lower than synchronous speed due to slip. When operating at 60Hz, synchronous speed increases by 20%. To select a model, first determine the required pole count based on load speed, then match power and mounting dimensions to choose the specific type.

For the same model, output power, speed, efficiency, power factor, and torque remain constant regardless of voltage; only the rated current is adjusted using I = IN × 380 / U. Dual-voltage motor models (380/660V and 660/1140V) are switched via jumpers in the terminal box. The 1140V model is designed for high-voltage supply in underground coal mines and requires verification that its explosion-proof certification covers the application. Variable frequency drives (VFDs) are categorized by supply voltage; specify the site supply voltage, phase count, and frequency at the time of order.

Panpu SRM Switched Reluctance Motor Drive System Case Study | Oilfield Production Zone | Beam Pump Load Speed Regulation and Soft Start Retrofit

In a certain oilfield's production zone, 37 beam pumping units equipped with asynchronous motors have operated under light loads for an extended period, resulting in frequent start-stop cycles and high inrush currents. The project replaced the entire system with Panpu SRM series switched reluctance motor drive systems, enabling speed control based on the pumping unit load curve and soft starting.

Panpu SRM Switched Reluctance Drive System Case Study | Rubber & Plastic Products Factory | Energy-saving Retrofit of Injection Molding Workshop Oil Pumps with Process-Stage Speed Control

The 12 injection molding machines in the rubber and plastic products factory's injection workshop originally used an asynchronous motor + variable pump configuration, resulting in significant energy loss via overflow during the holding pressure and cooling stages. The project has now switched to Panpu SRM switch reluctance motor drive systems for the oil pumps, enabling speed-adjusted oil supply based on process stages.
