This range of motors up to 90kW comply with efficiency classification EFF2 as established between CEMEP and European Community.- Motor series BFGC (IIC):
- Particular specifications related to Hazardous Areas
- The motor series BFGC and BFG comply with European Standards EN 50014 and 50018, and are suitable for the following Groups of Gases and Temperature Classes:
- motor series BFGC: Gases of group IIC, and temperature class T4
- motor series BFG: Gases of group IIB, and temperature class T4
Under request, are available other temperature classes on these motor series.
This motor series has the CE (
) marking in compliance with European Directive 94/4/EC (ATEX), and are classified as equipment group II (Surface Industries), suitable to use on the following zones:- Category 2, for Zones 1 and 2 Gases and Vapours (G), frame sizes up to 225 included.
- Category 2, for Zones 1 and 21 Gases, Vapours and Dust (GD), frame sizes 250 and above.
- Category 3, for Zones 2 and 22 Gases, Vapours and Dust (GD), frame sizes 250 and above.
Special design to suit Zone 21 will be available on request.
As standard execution, the motors are fitted with flameproof terminal boxes for gases of group IIB or IIC, with specification code EEx d, IIB or EEx d, IIC. Under request and as an alternative execution, these motors can be fitted with an Increased Safety terminal box complying with standard EN 50019. In this case the description code is EEx de, IIB or EEx de, IIC.
The flameproof motors in this catalogue are certified according to the above standards, by the Notified Bodies ISSEP in Belgium (formerly INIEX) and PTB in Germany, accredited organizations by EU. - Standards

As standard, these motors are wound to operate on the following voltage range:
230 V - 50HzUp to and including 2.2 kW (*) 
400 V - 50Hz
(*) under request available higher outputs 400 V - 50HzFor powers 3 kW and above
The electrical data described in the present catalogue, is based on the standard supply voltages shown above.
Depending on actual supply voltages/frequencies, this data may vary slightly but the variations will generally remain within the tolerances given by IEC 60034-1. - Frame sizes 355 and above: These motors are spot wound for fixed voltage and frequency. The electrical data presented in this catalogue refers to 400V, 50Hz.
For both cases, and under request, are available voltages up to 690V, and frequencies 50 or 60Hz.- Frame sizes up to 315 included:
