ABB 3AUA0000049479 Motors & Drives - ACS310-03U-50A8-2
Part Number: 3AUA0000049479
Quick Summary
ABB ACS310 drive is a compact, variable-speed drive for pumps and fans in HVAC and industrial systems. It addresses energy waste, noisy operation, and unstable process responses by delivering precise speed control and responsive adjustment. While certification specifics vary by enclosure, ABB drives typically support CE marking and IP-rated protection, with SIL options available on select configurations; verify the exact rating for your installation. The built-in PID controllers and pump and fan control (PFC) enable automatic modulation in response to pressure, flow, or external signals, reducing energy consumption and extending equipment life. This combination delivers measurable business value through lower energy costs, easier integration with control architectures, and improved plant reliability.

FAQs
Begin with confirming motor compatibility (5 HP, 16.5 A nominal) and supply voltage, then connect the drive to the motor windings and control signals. Use the built-in PID and PFC features to configure closed-loop regulation for pressure or flow, and set basic protection parameters (overload, fault diagnostics). Commission by following ABB’s wiring diagrams and parameter templates to minimize commissioning time and ensure reliable operation in booster pump or HVAC fan applications.
With a 5 HP rating and 16.5 A nominal current, the ACS310 module provides smooth speed control and rapid response to demand changes. Built-in PID and pump/fan control optimize pressure and flow, yielding energy savings, reduced vibration, and longer pump life. This translates to steadier process variables and lower lifecycle costs in variable-torque loads common to booster pumps.
Yes. The drive is designed for variable torque loads typical of fans and air handling systems. Its built-in PID, PFC, and compact footprint enable precise speed modulation to match air-flow demand, improving energy efficiency and reducing mechanical wear. Easy integration with standard HVAC controls and diagnostics supports reliable, quieter operation across multiple fans.
Certifications for ABB drives depend on the enclosure and regional requirements. Look for CE marking for conformity with European directives and verify IP-rated protection for your installation environment. For safety-integrated requirements like SIL, consult the product sheet or ABB support to confirm available ratings for your specific configuration and installation. Always follow local electrical codes during installation.
The ACS310 reduces energy consumption through precision speed control and reduced throttling losses, while smoother operation lowers wear and maintenance intervals. The added diagnostics and protection minimize unplanned downtime, and the streamlined commissioning shortens project timelines. In typical variable-torque applications such as boosters and HVAC fans, these factors combine to faster payback and lower total-cost-of-ownership.
