Part Number: 3AUA0000201034
Quick Summary
ABB 3AUA0000201034 Extension Box is a wall-mounted extension module for ACS880 drives. It consolidates input fusing, a local disconnect, and a compact electrical box into a single enclosure, significantly reducing wiring complexity and cabinet space during installation. For engineers and procurement teams, the main challenge is achieving compliant, safe motor control without bloated wiring harnesses or multiple devices cluttering the control panel. This solution aligns with UL-listed safety expectations and supports fieldbus options for scalable automation networks. By simplifying assembly and shortening commissioning, it delivers cost savings, faster project timelines, and improved reliability for industrial automation projects.
Product Information
Extended Description
3AUA0000201034 ABB: The ACS880 Extension Box is an ACS880-01 wall-mounted drive on a back panel with an electrical box for additional devices. Within the box are line fuses to protect the drive. Optional devices includes a local disconnect switch, control power transformer, as well as ACS880-01 options for fieldbus, in-put/output adapters, special software, etc. The extension box will save cost and simplify installation because it has the input fusing and local disconnect switch that are typically required as part of the installation. It can also provide 120V digital signal interface for stop/start motor control. It is used in a variety of industries include oil and gas, chemical, mining, material handling, pulp and paper, saw mills and cement. Applications include extruders, winches, winders, conveyors, mixers, compressors, pumps and fans. The ACS880 Extension Box is available up to 150 HP in a wall-mountable package.
Feature integrated input fusing and a local disconnect → Business impact reduces installation time and wiring complexity, minimizing panel space and potential wiring errors in ACS880 drive setups. Application: suitable for oil and gas, mining, and material handling installations where compact, code-compliant protection is essential. Feature back-panel electrical box with optional devices (local disconnect, control power transformer, fieldbus adapters) → Business impact streamlines cabling and enables quick upgrade paths in evolving automation environments. Application: ideal for plants requiring scalable I/O and easy enclosure upgrades without relocating components. Feature 120V digital signal interface for stop/start motor control → Business impact simplifies control wiring and enhances interoperability with existing control systems. Application: conveyors, pumps, and mixers in tough industrial environments gain faster commissioning. Feature space-saving wall-mount design → Business impact frees cabinet real estate and reduces enclosure footprint, cutting installation and maintenance costs. Application: compact control rooms, mills, and extrusion lines benefit from easier access and serviceability. Feature compatibility up to 150 HP and optional ACS880-01 options for fieldbus and adapters → Business impact supports a broad drive range and future-proofing of automation schemes. Application: large pumps, fans, and extruders in oil, chemical, and cement industries. Objection mitigation: by integrating fusing, disconnect, and interface options in one enclosure, it reduces the number of field components to manage, lowers panel wiring errors, and accelerates commissioning while maintaining safety standards.
