Part Number: 3AUA0000234231
Quick Summary
ABB ACS255-03U-14A0-4+B068+F278 LV AC micro drive is a compact solution for precise motor control in automation. Engineers often face commissioning delays due to difficult parameterization and inconsistent motor protection settings. In practice, look for CE conformity for Europe, UL/CSA for North America, and robust IP protection for harsh environments. This drive's scalable performance and compact footprint help reduce energy use while increasing line throughput. It also simplifies panel space planning and installation when upgrading legacy equipment. The ACS255 platform supports simple parameterization, robust fault reporting, and seamless integration with ABB's control ecosystem. By standardizing motor control across lines, maintenance teams can consolidate spares and reduce total cost of ownership.

FAQs
Yes. The ACS255 is a low‑voltage, three‑phase drive designed for common industrial motors. Ensure the panel has adequate space, appropriate over‑current protection, and compatible wiring to motor terminals. Follow ABB installation guidelines and use the suggested parameter templates to minimize commissioning time.
Expect smoother acceleration profiles, tighter speed regulation, and reduced mechanical stress on conveyors and feeders. The drive optimizes energy use, lowers vibration, and improves line throughput, especially during start/stop cycles and high‑load transitions.
Environment suitability depends on the product’s IP rating and enclosure. Verify the specific unit’s ingress protection and regional certifications. For highly contaminated or explosive atmospheres, select regionally approved variants or alternative ABB solutions.
ABB drives commonly carry CE conformity for Europe and regional safety certifications such as UL/CSA for North America. Check the exact unit’s certificate label and regional approvals to ensure compliance with your site requirements.
Calculate ROI by comparing energy savings from optimized drive curves, reduced downtime due to diagnostics, and lower maintenance costs from extended motor life. Factor installation time, spare parts, and common ABB integration benefits to generate a project‑level ROI scenario.
