ABB 3AXD50001114770 LV AC Servo Drive - EtherCAT Protocol
Part Number: 3AXD50001114770
Quick Summary
ABB 3AXD50001114770 LV AC servo drive delivers precise motor control for automated machinery. Engineers often face integration headaches when combining legacy pulse-train systems with modern Ethernet-based controllers; this drive addresses that by offering two variants: E530-PT with pulse train input and Modbus TCP/IP, and E530-EC with EtherCAT. Designed for CE safety compliance and robust protection in industrial environments, it also supports IP-rated operation and SIL-ready safety integration pathways. With flexible connectivity and compact installation, it accelerates commissioning and reduces total cost of ownership for motion-control projects in manufacturing, packaging, and automation environments.

FAQs
Both variants are designed for straightforward integration with ABB and third-party controllers. For the E530-PT, connect the pulse train input, analog input, and Modbus TCP/IP according to the wiring diagram and configure the drive via ABB’s commissioning software. For the E530-EC, establish EtherCAT with a compatible master. Verify cabling, shielding, and termination, then align motor parameters and safety settings. Real-world installations emphasize consistent signal integrity and secure network topology to avoid runtime faults.
The device is rated at 1.5 kW, with two variants offering different communication paths: pulse train (E530-PT) plus Modbus TCP/IP, and EtherCAT (E530-EC). Performance aspects include precise speed and torque control, modular input options, and robust controller-to-drive communication. In practice, users experience smooth velocity profiles, reliable torque delivery, and predictable responses in mid-duty automation tasks such as packaging, conveying, and machine loading/unloading sequences.
Yes. The E530 family supports general-purpose servo tasks commonly found in packaging lines and conveyor systems. The E530-PT variant enables compatibility with legacy PLCs via pulse train input, while the E530-EC variant provides high-speed EtherCAT synchronization for multi-axis conveyor networks. This combination allows efficient line integration, reduced wiring, and consistent throughput across various packaging and material-handling applications.
The ABB 3AXD50001114770 is designed with CE safety compliance to meet EU market requirements and typical industrial IP-protection expectations for harsh environments. The product supports SIL-ready safety integration pathways, facilitating safe interaction with safety-rated networks. For project-specific certification needs, confirm with ABB documentation and regional compliance teams, as additional marks may be required based on the installation venue.
Maintenance centers on regular parameter backups, firmware updates, and connector integrity checks, all aided by ABB’s diagnostic tools. The flexible PT and EC variants reduce integration risk and retrofit costs, enabling faster commissioning and lower downtime. The result is improved equipment availability, longer machine life, and a favorable total cost of ownership for automation projects that require scalable, future-proof motion control.
