ABB ACS880-11-021A-5 regenerative industrial AC variable frequency drive, an 11 kW three phase drive designed for precise motor control and energy recovery in demanding industrial automation applications.
The ABB ACS880-11-021A-5 (Part Number: 3AXD50000047502) is a high-performance regenerative AC variable frequency drive (VFD) designed for precise speed and torque control of three-phase motors in demanding industrial applications. As part of the advanced ABB ACS880 industrial drive series, it provides efficient motor control with regenerative capability for applications where braking energy can be returned to the supply network.
This wall-mounted regenerative drive combines ABB’s proven all-compatible drive architecture with advanced control, integrated safety and reliable industrial performance. The ACS880-11 series is designed for users who require excellent motor control, high energy efficiency and reduced braking losses in heavy-duty machinery and process systems.
With a rated output power of 11 kW, a nominal output current of 21 A and a three-phase 380–500 V AC supply, the ACS880-11-021A-5 is ideal for industrial motors used in conveyors, centrifuges, cranes, hoists, test benches, elevators and other applications with frequent braking or overhauling loads.
Regenerative variable frequency drives such as the ABB ACS880-11 control motor speed by adjusting output voltage and frequency while also allowing braking energy to be fed back into the electrical supply. This can improve energy efficiency and reduce the need for external braking resistors in suitable applications.
The ACS880 platform is designed for industrial users who require precise motor control, flexible communication and long-term operational reliability. Its regenerative design makes it especially useful for applications with rapid deceleration, continuous braking or overhauling load conditions.
