ABB 3AXD50000047395 Regenerative LV AC Drive - UL Pld 75 Hp
Part Number: 3AXD50000047395
Quick Summary
ACS880-11 regenerative drive is a LV AC wall-mounted solution for regenerative braking in industrial systems. Operators often wrestle with wasted braking energy, overheating, and cooling penalties on conveyors, cranes, pumps, and mixers, hindering throughput. UL-listed safety and rugged industrial ratings support reliable operation in harsh environments, while unity power factor and integrated low-harmonic filtering improve power quality and electrical efficiency. The compact, wall-mounted design simplifies retrofits and new installations, enabling energy recovery that reduces energy costs, cooling load, and maintenance complexity across multiple process lines.
Product Information
Extended Description
3AXD50000047395 ABB: The ACS880-11 drives are customized to meet the particular needs of specific industries, such as oil and gas, mining, metals, chemicals, cement, power plants, material handling, pulp and paper, sawmills, marine, water and wastewater, food and beverage, and automotive. They can control a wide range of applications, including cranes, extruders, winches, winders, conveyors, mixers, compressors, centrifuges, test benches, elevators, extruders, pumps and fans. The ACS880-11 is a compact and complete regenerative drive solution with everything you need for regenerative operation in cyclic or continuous braking applications.
With regenerative functionality, the braking energy of the motor is returned to the drive and distributed to the supply network so that it can be utilized by other equipment. With mechanical or resistor braking energy is wasted as heat and additional cooling is often required, whereas regenerative drive operation offers significant savings in energy consumption and cooling. The drive reaches a unity power factor, meaning that electrical energy is used to its full potential. Equipped with an active supply unit and integrated low harmonic line filter, the regenerative drive produces exceptionally low harmonic content.
Feature: Regenerative energy recovery redirects braking energy back to the supply network, reducing energy consumption and cooling needs. Business Impact: Lower utility costs, reduced chiller/cooling load, and improved overall equipment efficiency. Application: Suitable for conveyors, cranes, winches, and material-handling systems where frequent braking occurs. This translates to measurable ROI in long-running operations. Feature: Unity power factor with integrated low harmonic filter improves grid compatibility and reduces electrical stress on motors and switchgear. Application: Heavy machinery and high-energy systems in metals, mining, and cement plants. Benefit: Enhanced power quality, lower downstream losses, and simplified compliance reporting. Feature: Compact wall-mounted form with an integrated supply unit simplifies installation and reduces enclosure footprint. Application: OEM machines, retrofits, and retrofit projects in modernization campaigns. Benefit: Faster commissioning, reduced engineering effort, and space savings on crowded plant floors. Feature: Wide application control for pumps, fans, mixers, compressors, and extrusion lines ensures versatile deployment. Benefit: Single drive covers multiple processes, delivering consistent performance and reduced spare-part needs. Feature: Safety and reliability via UL-listed design and robust enclosure ratings support continuous operation in harsh environments. Benefit: Lower maintenance costs, reduced downtime, and extended asset life.

FAQs
Wall-mounted installation requires a sturdy enclosure, adequate clearance for heat dissipation and cable entry, and proper mounting hardware. Ensure a dedicated 480 V (UL-rated) supply, appropriate protective devices, and space for service access. Compatibility with existing conduit layouts and DIN rail options can simplify integration and minimize installation time.
The drive delivers 55 kW (Pn) with 101 A input current, designed for 500 V input and a UL-rated 480 V output configuration. It supports regenerative braking with unity power factor and includes an integrated low harmonic filter to improve power quality and reduce harmonics in the plant electrical system.
Yes. The ACS880-11 regenerative drive is engineered for cyclic or continuous braking in cranes, winches, conveyors, and material-handling equipment. Its energy recovery capability, compact wall-mount design, and integrated protection features help reduce energy costs, improve reliability, and simplify control of heavy-load applications in mining and processing plants.
The device is UL-listed for industrial safety and reliability, supporting compliance with rigorous electrical codes in North American facilities. Its design also emphasizes power quality (unity power factor and low harmonic content), aiding regulatory adherence for utilities and site-level standards in demanding industrial environments.
Regenerative braking reduces energy consumption and cooling demands, lowering operating costs over the drive’s life. Maintenance is typically lower than traditional braking systems due to fewer brake resistors and simplified cooling requirements. ROI improves with high-duty cycles (cranes, conveyors) and applications where frequent braking and energy recovery are present.
