ABB 3AXD50000146147 ACS880-37 UltraLow Drive - IEEE519
Part Number: 3AXD50000146147
Quick Summary
ACS880-37 ultra-low harmonic drive delivers precise motor control for demanding industrial applications. Harmonics distort sensitive equipment and reduce efficiency on shared electrical networks. It complies with IEEE 519, IEC61000-3-2, and IEC61000-3-4, while its rugged IP54 enclosure withstands dusty or damp environments. ABB's Order-Based Engineering options can add features for customer-specific needs, helping you tailor the drive to your line. The drive also offers network power factor correction to compensate for low power factors common in complex plant loads. By reducing harmonic content by up to 97% compared with conventional drives, it delivers measurable energy savings, improved reliability, and easier compliance across manufacturing facilities.
Product Information
Extended Description
3AXD50000146147 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.

FAQs
The ACS880-37 offers a wide variety of standardized configurations and is supported by ABB's Order-Based Engineering. This enables rapid adaptation to existing control schemes and cabinet layouts, reducing integration risk. It integrates with common fieldbus and PLC platforms, helping you maintain consistent automation architecture while adding advanced harmonic management.
PN 160 kW denotes the drive’s nominal power rating, suitable for high-torque applications like conveyors and machine tools. IN 174 A is the nominal input current at rated load. Together they inform cable sizing, protection settings, and cooling requirements. Use these specs to validate electrical room capacity and feed arrangements during design reviews.
Yes. The drive features an IP54-rated enclosure, providing protection against dust and splashing water, and a robust design for factory floors. This combination supports long service intervals and reliable operation in demanding environments, reducing downtime and maintenance costs in production lines and processing plants.
The device is IEEE 519 compliant and aligns with IEC61000-3-2/3-4 standards, addressing harmonic control and EMI/EMC concerns. This supports regulatory compliance during commissioning and ongoing audits, while helping you achieve safer, more stable electrical networks in mixed-load facilities.
Harmonic reduction can lower total harmonic current distortion by up to 3% in nominal conditions and markedly cut system losses. Combined with power factor correction and efficient motor control, facilities typically see energy savings, reduced wiring and cooling demands, and improved equipment life, contributing to a favorable return on investment over the drive’s life cycle.
