FAQs
Begin with confirming field wiring compatibility and enclosure requirements for your installation. Ensure proper cooling, shielded cabling, and a suitable control interface. Configure the drive parameters for the motor’s power rating, then integrate with the existing PLC or SCADA using the supported fieldbus protocols. After wiring, perform a controlled ramp test to verify torque profiles and protective relays, validating safe startup under load.
Expect up to 900 kW output with an input current rating of 950 A, enabling direct drive of large motors. The ACS880-17 platform provides precise torque control, smooth acceleration/deceleration, and energy-efficient operation. It supports multi-axis coordination and safe torque-off features, making it suitable for demanding industrial processes.
Yes. The drive’s high power, precise speed control, and robust protection are well-suited for packaging lines requiring consistent line speed, and for metal processing where torque ramping and motor protection are critical. Its integration capabilities with ABB control systems and industrial Ethernet protocols simplify retrofit projects and new line deployments alike.
The ACS880 family is designed for CE compliance and offers robust safety features. Depending on configuration, options for SIL readiness and various enclosure protections are available to meet plant safety and regulatory requirements. Always verify the specific certification set with the vendor configuration for your installation and regional compliance needs.
Customers typically see energy savings from efficient motor control, reduced mechanical wear due to smooth ramping, and lower downtime from reliable protection features. Maintenance benefits include modular design for easier servicing, standardized spare parts, and streamlined diagnostics, all contributing to a favorable total cost of ownership over the asset lifecycle.
