ACS880-14-246A-3 ABB 132kW Three Phase ABB ACS880 Variable Speed Drive
ABB ACS880-14-246A-3 regenerative industrial drive module, a 132 kW three phase AC variable frequency drive designed for energy recovery and demanding industrial motor control applications.
Why Choose the ABB ACS880-14-246A-3 Regenerative Drive Module?
The ABB ACS880-14-246A-3 is a high-performance industrial regenerative variable frequency drive module designed for demanding applications where precise motor control, energy recovery and reliable operation are essential. As part of the advanced ABB ACS880 industrial drive series, it provides powerful speed and torque control for three-phase AC motors in heavy-duty industrial environments.
The ACS880-14 series is engineered for applications that benefit from regenerative braking, allowing energy generated during deceleration or overhauling operation to be returned to the supply network. This helps reduce energy waste, heat generation and the need for separate braking resistor systems in suitable applications.
With a rated output power of 132 kW, a nominal output current of 246 A and a three-phase 380-415 V AC supply, the ACS880-14-246A-3 is ideal for industrial motors used in cranes, hoists, conveyors, centrifuges, test benches, winders and heavy process machinery. Its module format is designed for cabinet-built systems and engineered drive installations.
Key Advantages
High-performance regenerative industrial drive module for demanding motor control.
132 kW rated output power suitable for heavy-duty industrial applications.
246 A nominal output current for reliable operation with large AC motors.
Three-phase 380-415 V AC input compatible with industrial power networks.
Regenerative braking capability helps return braking energy to the supply.
Direct Torque Control technology provides accurate speed and torque regulation.
Module design supports cabinet integration and engineered drive systems.
