ABB ACS880-37-0442A-3 Drive - Ultra-Low Harmonics IP54
Part Number: 3AXD50000146024
Quick Summary
ABB ACS880-37-0442A-3 is a high-performance drive that delivers precise motor control for conveyors, pumps, and processing lines. In many plants, harmonic distortions from drives disturb sensitive equipment, cause energy waste, and complicate maintenance. This solution complies with key industry standards such as IEEE 519 and IEC61000-3-2/3-12, and it offers an IP54-rated enclosure for harsh environments. By reducing harmonic content by up to 97% compared with conventional drives, it also enables power factor correction and lower system losses. The combination of robust configuration options and ABB’s Order-Based Engineering helps ensure quick deployment, scalable control, and predictable total cost of ownership across automation projects.
Product Information
Extended Description
3AXD50000146024 ABB: Harmonic distortions can disturb or even damage sensitive equipment connected in the same environment. Harmonics also cause additional losses in the network. =20
The ACS880-37 ultra-low harmonic drive produces exceptionally low harmonic content and exceeds the requirements of harmonic guidance/standards such as IEEE 519, IEC61000-3-2, IEC61000-3-12, EC61000-3-4 and G5/4. Compared to a conventional drive, the harmonic content is reduced by up to 97%. The total harmonic current distortion is typically <3% in a nominal situation and an undistorted network.
The drive offers the possibility for network power factor correction to compensate for the low power factors of equipment connected to the same network. Lower harmonics and full motor voltage at all times mean reduced system losses and better overall system efficiency.
The ACS880-37 comes with wide variety of standardized configurations for different application requirements, from line contactors, to preventing unexpected motor starts. If the application requires more, ABB=E2=80=99s Order-Based Engineering services can add special features to the standard product, such as an additional cabinet for customer-specific devices. The robust design and enclosures up to IP54 make the ACS880-37 suitable for even very harsh environments.
