FAQs
This drive is designed for straightforward integration into standard control panels and can mount on DIN rails where applicable. Ensure proper cable routing for 44 A nominal current, verify compatible fieldbus connections with your PLC, and allocate space for heat dissipation given the IP54 enclosure. Final checks should confirm ambient conditions meet the device’s protection requirements and that all safety interlocks are wired per your plant’s standards.
Key specs include a nominal output power of 22 kW (Pn) and a nominal current of 44 A (I2n), packaged in the ACS550-01-044A-4+B055 variant. The enclosure rating is IP54, providing dust and splash protection suitable for many harsh industrial environments. These figures inform motor sizing, drive selection, and energy-management strategies.
Yes. The 22 kW ACS550 with IP54 protection is well-suited for conveyors and pumps operating in dusty, humid, or wash-down environments. The IP54 rating minimizes additional enclosure costs and simplifies installation in challenging plant areas, while built-in protection features help maintain uptime during demanding cycles.
The device is designed to meet common industrial standards for motor drives, including IP54 protection and CE-type compliance for European markets. Always verify local regulatory requirements for your facility and confirm any regional certifications your end-use may require.
Expect reduced energy consumption through efficient motor control and smoother start/stop sequences, which lowers peak demand and extends motor life. The drive’s robust protections lessen unplanned maintenance, while compatibility with existing automation reduces commissioning time and training costs, delivering a favorable total cost of ownership over time.
