Fact Sheet

...with powerful features
Serviceability
Even the best motors need service. Our design engineers have
made improvements to help make service easy.
• An over-sized gasketed conduit box, containing permanently
labeled non-wicking Class H leads to a terminal board, makes
c
onnection and installation easy.
• Dual mounting holes for application versatility and
reduced inventory.
• Stator core centered in frame for easy conversion of a top
or side mounted conduit box for power connections on either
side of the motor (except on some FF flange constructions).
• Raised-letter embossed 316 stainless steel nameplate
with superior operational and maintenance information.
Superior Corrosion Protection
The motor frame, fan cover, endshield, and conduit box are cast
iron for severe duty. Rotor surfaces are coated to resist interior
rust, which helps maintain performance.
• Epoxy ester paint system stands up to corrosive
environments.
• Non-sparking, corrosion-resistant bidirectional fan* is quiet
and energy efficient.
* Two-pole motor fans are unidirectional in 280 K and H frame sizes.
• Stainless steel combination breather/drains allow
condensation to drain from motor.
• Corrosion-resistant ISO Grade 8.8 metric hardware is
rugged and designed for ease of motor service.
• Embossed 316 stainless steel nameplate stamped with over
3
0 motor specification details and all applicable standards.
• Leads are sleeved and are compatible with an oil mist
lubrication system.
Safety
GE has added features that make this product safe to install,
operate, and maintain.
• Safer lifting is possible with a four-point lifting system
versus a single eyebolt.
• Cast-in lifting lugs eliminate eyebolts that may strip, shear,
get lost, or be improperly selected.
• Grease inlet fitting at twelve o'clock and outlet fitting at eight
o'clock or four o’clock position, which promotes safer
regreasing.
• A silicon bronze box lug earthing terminal is located in the
conduit box. Additional earthing terminal posts are
located toward the drive-end on both sides of the frame
for greater operational safety.
• Fan covers on frames 200-280 have axial mounting bolts
for more rugged installation.
X$D IEC meets these challenges.
Improved Customer Operating Performance
• The X$D IEC meets or exceeds the
requirements for most
industry specifications in IEC construction. With an advanced
insulation and bearing system, one-year warranty and all
the advanced features that come with it, the X$D IEC is the
most durable and reliable , to ensure high reliability and
durability over the life of the motor.
