FAQs
For installation, mount the ACS800-31-0016-3 in a suitable panel or cabinet; ensure adequate ventilation and accessibility for wiring and parameter tuning. Connect three-phase supply within the drive’s current rating, and wire the motor per the manual. Use appropriate shielded cables and reference joints to minimize EMI; consider DIN rail or panel mounting depending on enclosure standards.
Key specs include Pcont.max of 15 kW and Icont.max of 34 A, which define the drive’s continuous power and maximum motor current. Operating within these limits enables efficient V/Hz control, precise speed ramping, and reduced energy waste during variable loads. This translates to lower energy bills and improved process consistency in everyday operation.
Yes. The ACS800-31-0016-3 is designed for mid-range motor drives used in pumps and conveyors, offering smooth acceleration, torque control, and reliable protection. Its compact footprint and integration capabilities help retrofit projects and new installations, delivering steady performance in HVAC systems and material handling lines.
The drive adheres to CE safety and EMC standards, supporting compliant operation within European installations. When deploying in other regions, verify local regulatory requirements and any additional certifications your site may mandate. The device’s built-in protection features also help address safety and compliance concerns during commissioning and operation.
ROI is driven by energy savings from optimized motor speed, reduced downtime due to smoother starts, and lower maintenance costs from protective features. Coupled with faster commissioning and easier integration with existing ABB components, plant-wide efficiency gains and reduced spare-part inventories typically shorten payback periods for mid-range drive upgrades.
