£2,304.80
The ABB ACS380-040C-050A-4 (Part Number 3AXD50000162260) is a compact and reliable AC variable frequency drive (VFD) module designed for precise motor control in industrial machinery and automation systems. As part of the ABB ACS380 machinery drive series, it is built for machine builders and OEMs who need flexible integration, dependable performance and efficient speed control.
This machinery drive module provides smooth control of three-phase AC motors while supporting modern automation requirements. The ACS380 range is designed to connect easily with machine control systems, helping simplify installation, commissioning and ongoing operation in production environments.
With a rated output power of 22 kW and a nominal output current of 50 A, the ACS380-040C-050A-4 is suitable for medium-sized machinery motors used in conveyors, mixers, cranes, extruders and textile equipment. The drive operates from a three-phase 380–480 V AC supply and is supplied as an IP20 module for cabinet or panel installation.
Variable frequency drives such as the ABB ACS380 regulate motor speed by adjusting the voltage and frequency supplied to the motor. This enables machinery to run more efficiently, improves process accuracy and reduces mechanical stress on motors, gearboxes and driven equipment.
The ACS380 series is developed for machine builders who require compact drives that integrate smoothly into automation systems. Its machinery-focused design makes it a strong choice for repeatable OEM applications where reliable motor control and straightforward commissioning are essential.
