Product Information
Extended Description
3ABD00046616 ABB: The ACS355 drives are designed to meet the requirements of an extensive range of machinery applications in food and beverage, material handling, lifting, textile, printing, rubber and plastics, and woodworking applications. The drive are user-friendly, yet provide a wide range of built-in technology, such as the safe torque off functionality and sequence programming, reducing the need for additional control electronics. The product offers options and diverse functionality to cater to the needs set for speed and torque control of AC induction and permanent magnet motors.
Safe Torque Off (STO) is built-in, reducing reliance on external safety circuits and integration time. This directly lowers wiring complexity and safety risk on conveyors and lifting equipment, enabling faster commissioning with compliance-grade safety. In practice, facilities implementing ACS355-based drives can shorten the path from install to production in food processing lines and packaging systems.Sequence programming and configurable logic are embedded in the drive, cutting the need for supplementary PLCs. This reduces panel space and wiring, which shortens project timelines and lowers installation costs. Engineers can implement sequences for material handling, sorting, and line changeovers without bespoke hardware.Compatibility with both AC induction and permanent magnet motors gives flexibility when upgrading fleets or consolidating spares. It supports mixed motor inventories, enabling retrofit projects without replacing existing assets. This reduces capital expenditure and accelerates time-to-value.4 kW, 8.8 A rating fits mid-size machines and standard control panels, providing robust performance without oversizing. The drive's efficiency and torque control reduce energy consumption and motor wear, contributing to lower operating costs over the machine life. It also helps meet demand for precise speed control in textiles, plastics, and woodworking lines.Ease of installation and maintenance is aided by built-in safety features and a familiar ACS355 software ecosystem. Industry-ready documentation and compatibility with common networks streamline commissioning and diagnostics, while built-in protection and fault reporting improve uptime. Overall, the module supports faster ROI through reduced hardware footprint and simpler lifecycle management.
