ebm-papst R3G560 Alternative — LONGWELL LWBE3G560

Looking for an alternative for ebm-papst R3G560-AG07-03? The LONGWELL LWBE3G560 is the same-size backward-curved EC alternative — same control protocol, mounting dimensions on the LONGWELL drawing, performance characterized using AMCA 210/211 test methods (test report on request) — at 40–55% lower landed cost with 15–30 day delivery vs 14–22 weeks ex-works ebm-papst. R3G is ebm-papst's primary backward-curved centrifugal line; LONGWELL covers this size in the LWBE3G560 series.

Why Engineers Switch from R3G560 to LWBE3G560

4–8× Faster Delivery

15–30 days
vs 14–22 weeks ex-works for ebm-papst in 2026. Sample units 1–3 days from stock.

40–55% Lower Landed Cost

−40 to −55%
per unit at equivalent spec. On a multi-unit AHU / fan-grid program the CapEx delta scales fast.

Drop-in Candidate · Same Size Class

Ø560 mm
Same impeller size and control protocol; confirm the mounting hole pattern and inlet ring against the LONGWELL drawing before ordering.

Drop-in compatibility: what matches and what to confirm

Mechanical match

The LONGWELL LWBE3G560 matches the ebm-papst R3G560 mounting pattern (plenum-fan footprint, inlet ring diameter, motor shaft height, terminal-box position) per the mounting dimensions on the LONGWELL drawing. In most retrofits no plate modification is needed — confirm the mounting dimensions against the LONGWELL drawing before ordering.

Electrical & control match

The LWBE3G560 accepts the same 0–10 V analog speed reference, PWM (1 kHz), and Modbus RTU (RS485) control as the ebm-papst R3G560.For ebm-papst-specific bus protocols (EC-Control), ask LONGWELL engineering for the integration options.

Performance match

The LONGWELL LWBE3G560 range covers the ebm-papst R3G560 operating envelope on nameplate data (characterized using AMCA 210/211 test methods; test report available on request). Closest listed model: LWBE3G560-188PT-01, 16,039 m³/h nameplate vs 16,000 m³/h for the R3G560 — check the curve at your duty point. R3G500 duties are also covered in this frame.

Typical Applications

The LONGWELL LWBE3G560 is widely deployed across large industrial AHU and fan-grid systems. Common application categories include:

  • Large industrial AHU
  • Fan-grid systems
  • Process ventilation

At Ø560 mm the LONGWELL platform also covers R3G500 duties for large industrial AHU and fan grids.

FAQ

Is LONGWELL LWBE3G560 a true drop-in replacement for ebm-papst R3G560?
Same size class and control interface — confirm the mounting hole pattern and inlet ring against the LONGWELL drawing on the model page. It accepts the same 0–10 V / PWM / Modbus RTU control, and runs from the same 380–480 V 3Φ supply. Confirm the mounting hole pattern and inlet ring against the LONGWELL drawing on the model page. Matched model: LWBE3G560-188PT-01.
How does LWBE3G560 compare on efficiency to R3G560?
LONGWELL does not publish a single peak-efficiency figure for the LWBE3G560. The model page on the selection site gives airflow, static pressure and input power along the curve (measured where marked, nameplate-estimated otherwise), so the efficiency at your duty point follows directly; a test report for a specific model is available from engineering on request.
What's the 2026 lead-time difference?
As of May 2026 ebm-papst R3G560 runs 14–22 weeks ex-works under allocation. LONGWELL LWBE3G560 ships in 15–30 days for orders up to 500 units, 6–10 weeks for 1,000+ unit OEM programs, and samples in 1–3 days from stocked Ø560 mm inventory.
What's the cost delta?
At equivalent spec (same Ø, airflow/Pa, IP, control), LONGWELL LWBE3G560 typically lands 40–55% below ebm-papst R3G560 ex-works. Final pricing depends on quantity, voltage, IP and control options.
Is R3G the same as K3G?
No. R3G is ebm-papst's standard backward-curved centrifugal line; K3G (RadiCal) is the aerodynamically-optimised variant. They share frame sizes but differ in wheel design and part number. This page maps the R3G560 specifically; for the RadiCal equivalent see the K3G560 page in the alternatives index.
