Product Name
DCS880 DC Converter Cabinet
Feature → Business Impact → Application: High-current capability of 3000 A at 525 VAC enables a single cabinet to serve large DC bus demands, reducing the need for parallel assemblies and simplifying your wiring topology. This translates to shorter wiring diagrams, lower installation risk, and measurable reductions in commissioning time for heavy machinery and electric drives. Application: large-scale motor control centers, traction systems, and regenerative braking applications where fast, reliable power delivery is critical. Feature → Business Impact → Application: 4Q converter architecture (DCS880-A02-3000-05L1) supports bidirectional power flow, improving energy efficiency and allowing regenerative energy to be returned to the DC bus or grid. Benefit: improved overall system efficiency and lower energy costs in metals processing, steel, and heavy manufacturing. Feature → Business Impact → Application: 644 mm depth, 2120 mm height, and 2430 mm width with a 1250 kg weight provide a robust, mountable cabinet footprint that fits constrained plant rooms while delivering substantial DC capacity. Benefit: streamlined site layout, easier crane/lift planning, and safer installation in tight spaces. Feature → Business Impact → Application: ABB DCS880 platform offers proven reliability and predictable performance, minimizing unplanned downtime and maintenance windows. Application: upgrade projects, retrofits, and new lines in packaging, robotics, and process plants seeking dependable, scalable power control. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Stocked at regional warehouses with a 35-day lead time (DEAPR) and immediate availability variants (SGIND002), enabling faster project procurement and tighter schedule adherence. Benefit: reduced capital lock-in, faster time-to-value, and improved procurement discipline for capital expenditure cycles. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Warranty and service policy requiring warranty return of defective units ensures long-term reliability and a clear pathway for repairs, increasing total cost of ownership confidence. Application: critical applications where uptime is non-negotiable, such as mining equipment and critical infrastructure manufacturing. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Comprehensive product data including HS code and tariff information streamlines import and compliance processes, supporting smoother cross-border deployments and risk mitigation in global projects.

FAQs
Yes. The cabinet is based on the DCS880 platform and uses a 525 VAC input, designed to integrate with standard ABB power control architectures. When planning installation, verify bus ratings, cabinet mounting clearances, and existing control interfaces. ABB documentation and regional support resources provide detailed wiring diagrams and commissioning steps to ensure seamless compatibility with your current DCS880 configurations.
Key specs include a 525 VAC input, 3000 A continuous current, and a 4-quadrant converter topology enabling bidirectional power flow. The 1250 kg cabinet occupies a footprint of 644 mm (depth) x 2120 mm (height) x 2430 mm (width). These figures support high-load DC distribution, regenerative energy management, and scalable integration into large control systems.
Industries with demanding DC power needs—such as steel and metal processing, heavy manufacturing, large industrial drives, and rail/traction applications—benefit from reliable high-current DC distribution and regenerative capabilities. The cabinet’s size and weight are suitable for dedicated power rooms or skid-mounted deployments, where space planning and robust cooling are critical.
Certification specifics are not listed in the data provided. Users should verify CE conformity, EMI/EMC compliance, and applicable IEC/UL safety standards with ABB during procurement. ABB can confirm exact certifications for your region and installation, ensuring regulatory alignment before commissioning.
Plan for preventive maintenance on the DCS880-based cabinet, including periodic electrical checks, cooling system inspection, and firmware updates. The high current rating and regenerative capabilities reduce downtime and energy losses, delivering a favorable total cost of ownership over machine life cycles. Regional stock and reasonable lead times support faster project delivery and lower risk.
