Product Information
Extended Description
3ABD00046178 ABB: The ACS380 machinery drive comes in several variants, ensuring seamless integration into machines and connecting perfectly to automation systems. It=E2=80=99s a great fit for industries such as food and beverage, material handling and textile. Typical applications include mixers, conveyors, EOT and tower cranes, extruders, and textile machinery. With the integrated functional safety features, the ACS380 drive can be also part of the machine=E2=80=99s safety system via PROFIsafe over PROFINET, ensuring the motor is safely stopped when required. In addition, the drive=E2=80=99s software can be easily customized with adaptive programming to match any specific application requirements.
Integrated functional safety and PROFIsafe over PROFINET is a standout feature that enables safe motor stopping and protective interlocks directly within the drive’s control flow. The business impact is lower risk, easier compliance, and less external safety hardware, which translates to faster commissioning and reduced downtime on conveyors, mixers, or cranes. Suitable for diverse lines, it supports safe, compliant operation across high-uptime industries such as food & beverage, material handling, and textile. Adaptive programming lets you tailor the drive’s logic to match niche processes, reducing development time and maintenance costs while increasing process consistency on extrusion lines or packaging. Easy plug-and-run installation and interfaces to common automation networks minimize engineering effort and errors during commissioning. Compatibility with ABB interfaces and standard networks accelerates OEM line integration, delivering faster time-to-value. The drive’s compact footprint and scalable options support upgrades without rework, substantially lowering total cost of ownership. Real-world insights show that integrated safety features reduce external hardware, while adaptive logic shortens changeovers in multi-product lines.

FAQs
The ACS380 drive is designed for straightforward installation with integrated terminal blocks and pre-configured parameters. During wiring, connect to the main power source, AC motors, and the PROFINET/PROFIsafe network as required. Use the included commissioning software to load the application profile, set motor parameters, and enable safety interlocks. This reduces setup time and minimizes wiring errors, accelerating line startup.
PROFIsafe over PROFINET enables safe stop, safe torque off, and protective interlocks directly within the drive control. This allows the ACS380 to participate in the machine safety system without external safety relays, enhancing overall risk management, simplifying certification processes, and shortening safety-related commissioning timelines while maintaining high production uptime.
Yes. The ACS380 is designed to accommodate applications such as conveyors, mixers, EOT cranes, and textile machinery. Its adaptive programming supports process-specific control strategies, while the safety integration ensures compliant operation in mixed-product environments. The drive’s flexible I/O and easy network connectivity simplify integration into existing automation architectures.
The ACS380 drive emphasizes CE compliance for European markets and features built-in safety functionality suitable for integration into machine safety systems. While the product highlights safety features and PROFIsafe compatibility, confirm specific regional certifications with your ABB representative based on your installation site and regulatory requirements.
Implementing the ACS380 typically reduces commissioning time, minimizes external safety hardware needs, and lowers downtime due to integrated safety features. Adaptive programming reduces custom engineering, while easier maintenance and standardized interfaces improve uptime and predictable performance. These factors collectively contribute to a faster payback period and lower total cost of ownership across multi-product lines.
