FAQs
For integration into an existing ABB control cabinet, verify that the cabinet supports a drive rated up to 15 kW (Pcont.max) and 59 A (Icont.max). Ensure adequate space for mounting, proper cooling, and appropriate cable routing to minimize EMI. Use standard fieldbus connections and follow ABB installation guidelines to simplify commissioning and ensure safe, reliable operation.
Pcont.max of 15 kW indicates the drive can continuously supply power to motors up to 15 kilowatts. This informs motor sizing for conveyors, pumps, or fans, ensuring the drive can meet steady-state torque requirements without overheating. In practice, selecting a motor within this limit provides consistent speed control, better energy use, and longer motor life under typical load profiles.
ACS800-11-0020-2 is designed for industrial motor control and supports standard safety and control features common in food processing applications. While it can drive conveyors in such environments, confirm enclosure IP protection, washdown compatibility, and regulatory compliance with your specific facility requirements. ABB’s ecosystem and site guidelines help ensure proper installation and reliability in hygienic settings.
The ACS800-11-0020-2 aligns with CE compliance for European regulatory requirements and is designed to work within safety architectures that may include SIL-rated configurations. It also supports typical industrial protection standards and integration with robust safety and diagnostic features to support compliant, reliable operation in production environments.
Upgrading to the ACS800-11-0020-2 can reduce total cost of ownership by lowering energy consumption through precise speed control and smoother starts, reducing motor wear, and enabling better process stability. Maintenance impact is typically lower due to built-in diagnostics and fault reporting, which shorten downtime and simplify troubleshooting for mid-range motor applications.
