Product Information
Extended Description
3AXD50000662562 ABB: The ACS180 is a compact, robust, and adaptable variable speed drive (VSD) for applications such as pumps, fans, compressors, conveyors, winders and mixers.This easy-to-use compact VSD offers excellent performance and quality at superior value with all essential machinery application features embedded. And as a member of ABB=E2=80=99s all-compatible drives portfolio, it shares the same architecture and user interfaces for ease of use.
Compact form factor and robust construction enable installation in tight panels and retrofit projects, reducing enclosure footprint and wiring complexity. The ACS180 module minimizes cabinet space, enabling higher packing density on automation lines and simplifying field integrations. Its rugged design supports operation in demanding industrial environments while maintaining serviceability and ease of access to connectors. This combination translates into faster installations, lower cabinet costs, and easier future upgrades without replacing core controllers. Engineers appreciate the predictable, plug-and-play feel that shortens commissioning time and minimizes risk during migration from legacy drives. Power range and voltages include 0.55 kW (Pn) with 400 V input at 1.8 A, and UL-rated 0.75 Hp at 460 V. This dual rating supports global operation and regional supply variability, reducing the need for multiple variants. The device maintains consistent torque across load steps and provides built-in motor protection, improving reliability for critical loads such as pumps and conveyors. The compact VSD also delivers smooth starting and ramping profiles that protect mechanical systems from peak stresses. This contributes to longer motor life and reduced maintenance costs. Ease of use is enhanced by ABB's all-compatible drives portfolio, which shares the same architecture and user interfaces across models. This consistency minimizes training requirements for maintenance staff and accelerates commissioning time. The ACS180 provides essential machinery features embedded, including fault handling, safe stop, and basic motor protection tuned to common customers' needs. The universal interface supports easy scalability, so adding a second drive for a second axis is straightforward without retraining staff. This consistency accelerates project delivery and reduces the risk of operator error. Efficiency and protection drive measurable value: variable speed reduces energy consumption during part-load operation and mitigates electrical peaks on the mains. Built-in protection features safeguard motors against overloads, short circuits, and faults, supporting safer operation in harsh environments. The device's compact integration with ABB’s portfolio enables seamless replacements and upgrades without re-engineering control logic. Easy programming, diagnostics, and factory presets for pumps, fans, and conveyors shorten time-to-value and cut downtime. Overall, the ACS180 contributes to lower lifecycle costs, improved energy efficiency, and a faster return on automation investments. Installation and maintenance are simplified through pre-configured parameters for common applications and straightforward diagnostics. The drive's robust design supports long service intervals and reduces unscheduled downtime. Access to ABB support resources and documentation further accelerates problem resolution and system optimization.
