Product Information
Extended Description
3ABD00050546 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.
PROFIsafe over PROFINET integration enables functional safety within the drive: it can be part of the machine safety system and safely stop the motor when required. This reduces external safety circuitry and simplifies compliance in high-risk lines like conveyors and EOT cranes. This also supports compliance audits by providing traceable safety events. Adaptive programming lets engineers tailor logic and motion profiles to match the exact process, cutting commissioning time and enabling quick changeovers in textile machinery or mixers. It also supports adaptive profiles for different product runs, boosting efficiency. Rated at 3 kW with a 7.2 A input current, the ACS380 variant fits mid-size motors and compact spaces, enabling efficient control of extruders and packaging lines. In practice, this translates to lower energy consumption and smoother startup. The module's compatibility with LV AC networks and standard PROFINET communication streamlines integration with existing PLCs and HMI systems, reducing wiring complexity and installation costs. Installation benefits include lighter panel space and plug-and-play options within ABB’s ecosystem. Industry-focused benefits include predictable performance in food & beverage lines and robust reliability in material handling, supported by safe stop features and easy software updates. Maintenance teams appreciate remote diagnostics and firmware update capabilities.
