FAQs

The ACS800-31-0020-2 is designed for three-phase motors and is compatible with typical industrial three-phase power systems. It supports standard motor control interfaces and common control wiring found in plant PLCs. When installing, verify motor nameplate current, ensure proper enclosure rating for the environment, and follow ABB’s wiring diagrams to minimize commissioning time and errors.
Key specs include a Pcont.max of 15 kW and Icont.max of 59 A, which define the maximum continuous motor power and current. This enables consistent torque for moderate to high-load applications like conveyors and pumps. Performance is enhanced by controlled ramping, reduced startup inrush, and protective features that limit motor stress, contributing to longer motor life and steadier process control.
Yes. The model’s 15 kW/59 A capability supports typical packaging line motors, delivering smooth acceleration and precise speed control. Its integration with standard automation networks makes it easy to coordinate with other line equipment, while energy-efficient operation reduces operating costs over the line’s life, improving overall throughput and ROI.
The ACS800 family commonly carries CE conformity for European markets and safety-related protections inherent to modern industrial drives. In regulated environments, verify the specific unit’s certification documentation for your region and confirm enclosure ratings and safety features align with site requirements. ABB’s drives are designed to support compliant operations and standard industrial safety practices.
Expect lower maintenance due to controlled motor protection, smoother starts, and reduced mechanical wear. Energy efficiency from optimized speed control contributes to noticeable operating-cost savings.
