ebm-papst R3G560 Alternative — LONGWELL LWBE3G-560-EC
Looking for an alternative for ebm-papst R3G560-AG07-03? The LONGWELL LWBE3G-560-EC is the dimensionally interchangeable backward-curved EC equivalent — same mounting, same control protocol, AMCA 210/211 third-party-tested performance — at 40–55% lower landed cost with 15-day delivery vs 14–22 weeks ex-works ebm-papst. R3G is ebm-papst's primary backward-curved centrifugal line; LONGWELL matches or exceeds it across the full size range.

True Drop-In Compatibility
Drop-In Compatibility Details
Mechanical match
The LONGWELL LWBE3G-560-EC matches the ebm-papst R3G560 mounting pattern (plenum-fan footprint, inlet ring diameter, motor shaft height, terminal-box position) within ±0.5 mm tolerance. Drop-in retrofit requires no AHU rework, no plate modification, and no plenum hole resizing.
Electrical & control match
The LWBE3G-560-EC accepts the same 0–10 V analog speed reference, PWM (1 kHz), and Modbus RTU (RS485) control as the ebm-papst R3G560. LONGWELL provides a free Modbus register-map cross-reference for BMS integration; ebm-papst EC-Control / GeneSys bus is bridged with a free MODBUS gateway — no BMS reprogramming required.
Performance match
The PQ curve of the LONGWELL LWBE3G-560-EC sits within 2–3% of the ebm-papst R3G560 across the operating envelope (third-party AMCA 210/211 testing at TÜV / Intertek). Wire-to-air efficiency at BEP is 91% vs 91% — backward-curved EC parity. GOLDEN MATCH: LWBE3G560-188PT-01 is a near-exact 1:1 (16,039 m³/h vs 16,000 m³/h). R3G500 also up-sizes into this frame.
Typical Applications
The LONGWELL LWBE3G-560-EC is widely deployed across large industrial AHU and fan-grid systems. Common application categories include:
- Large industrial AHU
- Fan-grid systems
- Process ventilation
GOLDEN MATCH at 560 mm — the LONGWELL platform also covers R3G500 (which up-sizes into this frame) for large industrial AHU and fan grids.
