By aligning with standard control architectures and offering scalable capacity, it reduces procurement complexity and lowers operating costs while improving process reliability and energy efficiency.
Product Information
Compact power rating and current limits (Pcont.max: 11 kW; Icont.max: 25 A) enable precise motor control for medium-duty drives. This translates to predictable torque, reduced surge currents, and safer startup sequences, lowering mechanical stress and extending equipment life. Ideal for conveyors, pumps, and small machine tools in packaging, material handling, and process lines. Installation and compatibility are designed for straightforward integration in existing control cabinets with familiar ABB interfaces, minimizing downtime during replacements and simplifying procurement. This supports retrofits and new lines where a compact, scalable drive is required. Energy efficiency features and smooth speed control reduce energy consumption across varying loads, while minimizing motor wear and extending service life. Lower operating costs accompany improved process stability and reduced maintenance. Protection and reliability are built in with overload protection and fault diagnostics, helping prevent unexpected shutdowns and enabling faster fault isolation in typical factory environments. Control and integration flexibility supports common automation architectures with options for parameter tuning and remote monitoring, improving operator response times and overall system performance. Maintenance and ROI considerations emphasize reduced downtime, longer motor life, and energy savings, delivering a favorable total cost of ownership in daily industrial use.
