Product catalog summary
General Aspects of the ATEX Directive
The ATEX Directive 94/9/EC establishes minimum health and safety requirements for equipment in potentially explosive environments, promoting free trade within the EU by standardizing safety requirements, including harmonized standards, EC-type examinations, and quality management systems.
Definitions and Classifications
Equipment is divided into Group I for mines and Group II for surface industries, with further categorization based on protection levels. Group II includes categories 1, 2, and 3, indicating the likelihood of explosive atmospheres.
Dangerous Areas and Types of Protection
Dangerous areas are classified into zones (0, 1, 2 for gases and 20, 21, 22 for dust) based on explosive atmosphere presence. Protection types include flameproof enclosures ("d"), increased safety ("e"), and combined protection ("de").
Markings
Motors are marked according to the ATEX Directive, indicating conformity with safety standards, including CE marking, specific explosion protection markings, and supplementary markings for temperature class and protection degree.
Nomenclature and Standards
The D5 series motors are categorized by type and protection level, with standards such as EN 60034 and EN 50014 ensuring compliance with safety and performance requirements.
Technical Specifications
Detailed technical data is provided for various motor operations, including mains and frequency converter operations, and outlines dimensions for different motor sizes.
Product Code Structure
MarelliMotori products are identified by a 13-digit code specifying the motor's characteristics, including series, protection type, and application suitability.
Code Construction
The code on the nameplate includes series, housing length, mounting arrangement, voltage, frame size, polarity, and options provided by MarelliMotori.
Mountings and Positions
Motors are available in various construction types such as B3, B5, B3B5, B14, B3B14, and V1, compatible with IEC 60034-7 standards. Nameplates indicate the type of construction.
Balancing and Vibration Grades
Motors are dynamically balanced to vibration grade normal (N) as per EN 60034-14. Reduced (R) or special (S) vibration levels are available on request. Vibration limits vary with shaft height and rated speed.
Noise Levels
A-sound pressure levels for group IIB motors are provided, measured at a one-meter distance according to ISO R 1680. Sound levels increase by approximately 4 dB(A) at 60 Hz.
Materials
Mechanical components of D5 series motors are made from materials like aluminum alloy, steel, and cast iron, depending on the frame size and pole number.
Bearings
Bearings have a theoretical lifetime exceeding 50,000 hours under standard conditions. Various factors affect bearing life, including external loads and environmental conditions. Motors from frame size 71 to 132 have prelubricated ball bearings.
Terminal Box and Cable Entrance
Motors from frame size 71 to 132 have a terminal box on the right side, while sizes 160 to 400 have it on top. Terminal boxes can be rotated in 90° steps.
Lubrication Intervals
Lubrication and relubrication intervals are specified for motors with and without regreasing systems, based on operating conditions and frame size.
Protective Treatments
Standard painting involves epoxy-vinyl/polyurethane paint suitable for industrial environments. Special painting is available for aggressive or marine environments.
Thermal Protections
Motors can be equipped with additional thermal protections like PTC thermistors and PT100 for temperature monitoring. These are mandatory for frequency converter applications.
Grounding
Motors have two grounding terminals, one inside and one outside the terminal box, conforming to EN 50014 standards.
Voltage and Frequency
Motors are designed for 230V/400V ±10% at 50Hz, suitable for various supply voltages. Different voltages and frequencies are available on request.
Outputs and Deratings
Output ratings are for continuous duty S1 under specified environmental conditions. Derating factors apply for different conditions.

GENERAL ASPECTS OF THE ATEX DIRECTIVE The directive 94/9/EC, better known as ATEX from the French term ATmosphères EXplosibles, is a European Community Directive, which defines the minimum health and safety requirements for apparatus intended for use in potentially dangerous environments. The directive is adopted by the European Union (EU) to facilitate free trade in the EU of products to which the Directive applies. It conforms to the safety demands in essence by: • The application of harmonised specific standards, • The EC-type examination of products from a notified body, resulting in the...

BEARINGS The theoretical lifetime of bearings, L10h according to ISO 281/1 standard, of standard horizontal construction motors, without external forces (radial and/or axial) is in excess of 50,000 hours. The lifetime of bearings is determined by multiple factors and specifically by: • the external loads and level of vibration • the lifetime of the grease (mainly on double screen bearings), • the environmental conditions and working temperature. Motors with frame sizes from 71 to 132 in standard configuration have double screen prelubricated ball bearings. The correspondent grease life under...
