Quick Summary
ACS880-37-0101A-5 drive provides ultra-low harmonic motor control for industrial equipment and conveyors. Harmonics can disturb sensitive equipment and waste energy, making compliance and reliability a challenge for modern factories. IEEE 519, IEC61000-3-2, IEC61000-3-12, EC61000-3-4 certifications guide design and testing, while the IP54-rated enclosure adds ruggedness for harsh environments. By combining low harmonic content with network power factor correction, this drive delivers measurable business value through improved efficiency, reduced losses, and easier regulatory compliance across automation lines and distribution networks.
Product Information
Extended Description
3AXD50000158096 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.
Feature → Business Impact → Application: The ACS880-37-0101A-5 drive delivers ultra-low harmonic performance, achieving THD typically below 3% in nominal conditions and reducing harmonic content by up to 97% versus conventional drives, which protects sensitive loads and lowers energy losses in multi-drive networks. This translates to fewer electrical disturbances, longer equipment life, and lower maintenance costs for packaging, material handling, and process lines. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Built-in network power factor correction helps compensate for low PF of connected loads, improving overall plant efficiency and reducing reactive power penalties, a critical advantage for large pump and conveyor installations where power is drawn from limited feeders. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Standardized configurations plus ABB Order-Based Engineering enable rapid deployment and easy customization, reducing commissioning time and integration risk in retrofit projects and new lines. Feature → Business Impact → Application: IP54-rated enclosures and rugged design ensure reliability in dirty, humid, or vibration-prone environments, lowering the total cost of ownership for metalworking, plastics, or food-and-beverage lines. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Broad compatibility with line contactors, protective interlocks, and flexible cabinet layouts simplifies installation, wiring, and maintenance across machine builders and OEMs.

FAQs
Plan for an IP54-rated enclosure and standardized configurations to simplify mounting in retrofit or new installations. Verify feeder sizing for 101 A nominal input, ensure proper line-side protection, and follow ABB commissioning guidelines to minimize downtime and ensure IEEE 519 and CE compliance.
You can expect total harmonic distortion typically below 3% in nominal operation, with harmonic current reductions up to 97% compared with conventional drives, improving power quality for sensitive equipment on shared networks.
Yes. The drive supports network power factor correction to offset low PF from connected equipment, helping boost overall system efficiency for pumps, fans, conveyors, and other high‑loads common in manufacturing environments.
The drive aligns with IEEE 519, IEC61000-3-2, IEC61000-3-12, and EC61000-3-4 harmonic standards, with CE conformity and IP54 enclosure protection to support safe operation in industrial settings.
The combination of low harmonic content, PF correction, and robust IP54 design reduces energy losses, lowers maintenance interruptions, and accelerates deployment through standardized configurations, delivering measurable uptime and lower total cost of ownership over the drive’s life cycle.
