ABB ACS880-37 Ultra-Low Harmonic Drive - IEEE 519
Part Number: 3AXD50001057503
Quick Summary
The ACS880-37 ultra-low harmonic drive optimizes motor control for demanding industrial drives across manufacturing and processing applications. Harmonics can distort power networks, stressing sensitive equipment and increasing energy losses; this drives higher operating costs and reduced uptime. It meets IEEE 519 and IEC61000-3-2/3-12/3-4 standards, with an IP54 enclosure suitable for harsh production floors. By enabling network power factor correction and maintaining full motor voltage, it delivers improved efficiency and reduced losses on mixed-use facilities. Designed for straightforward integration with ABB configurations, it supports scalable automation strategies while delivering reliable performance in challenging environments.
Product Information
Extended Description
3AXD50001057503 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.
