ABB 3AXD50001001766 LV AC drive - Type 4X IP66
Part Number: 3AXD50001001766
Quick Summary
LV AC drive ABB 3AXD50001001766 provides precise motor control for general-purpose applications. It is designed to operate in harsh environments where rain, heat, cold, salt spray, and dust can threaten equipment uptime. In cooling towers, outdoor pumps, and conveyors, this drive delivers reliable performance with a sealed enclosure that protects against the elements. Operators often struggle with corrosion, coating damage, and maintenance overruns in exposed locations, leading to unexpected downtime. The protection provided by IP66 / Type 4X, UV resistance, and the optional sun shield reduce susceptibility to weather and sunlight, while UL-listed specifications and a 10 HP rating at 480 V align with common industrial standards. This solution integrates smoothly into broader industrial automation strategies, supporting efficiency, reliability, and scalable motor control.
