Installing drive systems often requires separate fusing and a local disconnect, increasing cost and installation time. This extension box is UL-listed for safety, supports optional fieldbus and I/O adapters, and enables a compact, compliant installation. By consolidating input protection and control options in a single enclosure, engineers can speed commissioning and reduce wiring errors. In addition to compatibility with the ACS880-01 drive, it supports a 120V digital signaling interface for straightforward motor control in diverse industrial environments.
Product Information
Extended Description
3AUA0000201059 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.
The Extension Box integrates input fusing and a local disconnect switch, which directly reduces installation cost and safeguards the ACS880-01 drive, delivering safer startup and simpler maintenance. This single enclosure simplifies wiring diagrams and saves panel space, enabling faster project progression and lower total installed cost. Its wall-mountable design and back-panel box keep critical protection devices close to the drive, improving fault diagnosis and serviceability in demanding environments such as oil & gas, chemical processing, and mining. The box supports ACS880-01 fieldbus options and I/O adapters, enabling scalable control and seamless integration with existing automation networks. With a 120V digital signaling interface for stop/start control, technicians gain reliable, low-risk remote control while meeting industry standards for safety and reliability. The unit is designed to accommodate drives up to 150 HP, giving installers flexibility for a broad range of applications while maintaining a compact footprint and straightforward installation.
