Engineers often face energy waste and performance fluctuations when relying on fixed-speed controls in variable-torque applications. ABB ACS310 drives provide built-in PID controllers and pump-and-fan control (PFC), helping maintain steady pressure and flow while cutting energy use. This combination supports CE compliance and protective design for rugged environments, with options offering IP-rated protection. By integrating this module into your control scheme, manufacturers gain operational reliability, reduced energy costs, and a scalable path for future upgrades, even as demand cycles shift.
Product Information
Extended Description
3AUA0000049471 ABB: The ACS310 drives are designed for variable torque applications such as booster pumps and supply and return fans. The drive includes a powerful and beneficial set of features designed for pump and fan applications. These features include built-in PID controllers and pump and fan control (PFC) that varies the drive=E2=80=99s performance in response to changes in pressure, flow or other external data.
The ACS310 module is designed for variable torque applications such as booster pumps and supply and return fans. By dynamically adjusting speed to match process demand, it reduces energy consumption and minimizes electrical stress on motors. This is ideal for HVAC and water-handling systems where load variations are routine. Built-in PID controllers and pump-and-fan control (PFC) enable fast, stable responses to pressure or flow changes. The result is tighter process control, fewer trips, and longer equipment life, with lower energy bills over time. These capabilities are well-suited to industrial process cooling and ventilation duties. With a 1.5 Hp nominal rating and 7.4 A current, this LV drive fits compact control panels and retrofits alongside existing motor controllers. Its IEC-based rating and compact form factor simplify installation, reduce wiring complexity, and lower hardware costs. The ACS310 also supports straightforward parameterization for quick commissioning. The drive's energy-management features translate to measurable gains such as reduced pump wear, smoother ramping, and less mechanical stress on fans. Operators see improved system reliability and maintenance predictability, especially in systems with frequent start-stop cycles or variable loads. In practice, engineers value the ability to tune control loops without external PLC changes, and to scale the drive when plant demand grows. ABB's ACS310 provides a familiar interface with familiar safety and control logic to minimize training needs and support long-term ROI.

FAQs
Start by confirming LV supply compatibility and motor ratings (1.5 Hp, 7.4 A). Mount the ACS310 module in a suitable enclosure, connect motor leads to the drive output, and wire power input per the manual. Parameterize the device for the pump/fan load, enable built-in PID and PFC features, and perform a gradual ramp test to avoid surge. Use standard safety practices and verify control integration with your existing PLC or control system.
Key specs include a 1.5 horsepower nominal rating and a 7.4 ampere current draw, designed for variable torque applications such as boosters and supply/return fans. It features built-in PID controllers and pump-and-fan control (PFC) to adjust speed in response to process data. The drive is intended for low-voltage systems and provides energy-efficient motor control with improved process stability in HVAC and pump applications.
Yes. The ACS310 is specifically aimed at variable torque loads typical of boosters, HVAC supply/return fans, and related pump applications. Its built-in PID and PFC capabilities help maintain desired pressure and flow while reducing energy consumption. It is well-suited for retrofits and new installations where precise speed control and energy efficiency are priorities.
ABB drives commonly carry CE compliance for European markets and offer protective design features suitable for rugged environments. While the provided data highlights CE-related context, always verify the exact certifications and IP ratings on the official datasheet for your region and application, and confirm any SIL or safety certifications required by your process.
ROI arises from reduced energy consumption due to variable-speed operation, lower mechanical wear from soft-start ramping, and improved process stability with PID control. The payoff depends on load profiles, duty cycles, and the cost of electricity, but expect meaningful reductions in energy use and maintenance overhead in systems with frequent start-stop or fluctuating demand.
