Product Information
Extended Description
3AXD50000158065 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 drive supports integration with ABB motors via standardized configurations, including line contactors for safe starts and enclosure options up to IP54. It accepts common ABB drive interfaces and can be configured for motor frames up to 75 kW. For retrofit or OEM projects, ABB's Order-Based Engineering can tailor the solution to your control scheme.
In typical installations, harmonic distortion remains under 3% THD with up to 97% harmonic reduction versus conventional drives. IEEE 519, IEC61000-3-2, and IEC61000-3-4 compliance help protect sensitive equipment on shared networks and reduce EMI, enabling closer motor control, less overheating, and longer equipment life.
Yes. The ACS880-37 supports network power factor correction to compensate for low power factors common with large loads. This improves grid efficiency, reduces losses, and helps meet facility energy targets, especially when several drives operate on a single network. It also aligns with ABB's engineering services to optimize control strategies.
For reliability in harsh environments, choose IP54-rated or higher enclosures and follow ABB's installation guidance. The drive's rugged design, standardized configurations, and robust cabling options simplify commissioning, minimize protective enclosures, and reduce downtime due to contamination, vibration, or temperature extremes.
ROI benefits come from energy savings due to lower losses from harmonics, improved motor efficiency, and reduced downtime. With 75 kW motors and typical THD improvements, facilities can realize quicker payback through energy cost reductions, extended equipment life, and lower maintenance requirements, especially in processes with frequent starts and varying loads.
