ACS880-31-017A-3 ABB 7.5kW Three Phase ABB ACS880 Variable Speed Drive
ABB ACS580-01-062A-4 general purpose drive, a 30 kW three phase AC variable frequency drive designed for industrial motor control applications including pumps, fans, compressors and conveyors.
Why Choose the ABB ACS880-31-017A-3 Ultra-Low Harmonic Industrial Drive?
The ABB 3AXD50000121021, type designation ACS880-31-017A-3, is a high-performance ultra-low harmonic industrial variable frequency drive (VFD) designed for precise control of three-phase motors while minimising harmonic distortion on the electrical network. Part of ABB's ACS880 industrial drive family, it combines advanced motor control with an integrated active supply unit and low-harmonic line filtering in a compact wall-mounted package.
With a nominal motor power rating of 7.5 kW and nominal output current of 17 A at 400 V, the ACS880-31-017A-3 is suitable for industrial applications where both accurate motor control and improved power quality are important. The drive operates within the 380–415 V AC three-phase voltage class and uses ABB's Direct Torque Control (DTC) technology for responsive speed and torque regulation.
Unlike conventional diode-front-end drives, the ACS880-31 incorporates an active supply unit and integrated low-harmonic filter. This architecture typically achieves total harmonic current distortion below 3% under nominal conditions with an undistorted supply network, reducing the need for external harmonic filters, multi-pulse arrangements or specialised transformers.

Ultra-Low Harmonic Motor Control for Industrial Automation
Variable frequency drives can introduce harmonic currents into an electrical network as they convert incoming AC power for variable-speed motor operation. The ABB ACS880-31 addresses this challenge with an integrated active supply unit and low-harmonic filtering, providing substantially lower harmonic distortion than conventional drive architectures without requiring separate external harmonic-filter equipment.
Alongside its power-quality benefits, the ACS880-31 uses ABB's Direct Torque Control technology for accurate motor control and incorporates the safety and automation capabilities of the wider ACS880 platform. The ACS880-31-017A-3 therefore provides a compact solution for 7.5 kW applications where precise motor operation, low harmonics and straightforward system integration are required.
