ABB 3AXD50000121151 ACS880-31 Drive - Ultra-Low Harmonic
Part Number: 3AXD50000121151
Quick Summary
ABB ACS880-31 drive delivers precise speed control for industrial conveyors, pumps, and winches. Many plants struggle with harmonic distortion and energy waste from standard drives, which degrades motor performance and raises operating costs. This solution aligns with industry norms through CE marking and UL-listed configurations, with options for IP-rated enclosures to withstand harsh environments. The system integrates an active supply unit and an integrated low harmonic line filter, simplifying installation, reducing BOM complexity, and accelerating commissioning. For procurement and engineering teams, the compact footprint and scalable platform enable easier panel design, faster project timelines, and improved total cost of ownership across multiple load types such as cranes, winders, and fans.

FAQs
What you need is a compact, wall-mounted drive with available IP-rated enclosures and space for the integrated filter. Plan a duty cycle assessment, confirm compatible AC mains voltage (500 V nominal) and motor rating (Pn 4 kW). Ensure proper wire routing for the integrated supply unit and verify clearance for heat dissipation. ABB’s documentation recommends leaving room for cooling and access to diagnostics terminals for commissioning.
The drive features an integrated low harmonic line filter and active supply unit, delivering ultra-low harmonic content and improving power quality without external filters or special transformers. This simplifies installation on conveyor lines, reduces panel space, and helps meet low-harmonic recommendations in demanding material handling environments.
The system includes power factor correction and an output voltage boost option, which improves motor efficiency under varying loads and reduces line losses. This translates to measurable energy savings on pumps, fans, and cranes, while maintaining torque and performance even at partial loads.
Yes, the ACS880 family is designed to meet CE marking requirements, with UL-listed configurations available depending on regional standards and wiring schemes. For IP-rated enclosures, the drive supports variants suitable for harsh industrial environments, aiding compliance in sectors like oil & gas and mining.
Expect reduced downtime due to robust diagnostics, integrated protection, and predictive maintenance capabilities. The single-drive platform lowers parts diversity, simplifies spare parts management, and accelerates commissioning. Health monitoring and fault alerts help operators schedule maintenance before failures, delivering faster return on investment across conveyors, pumps, and processing lines.
