ABB ACS880-11-124A-5 regenerative AC variable frequency drive, 75 kW, 124 A, designed for industrial motor control applications requiring energy recovery and high-performance operation.
The ABB ACS880-11-124A-5 (Product ID: 3AXD50000047396) is a high-performance regenerative AC variable frequency drive (VFD) designed for demanding industrial applications requiring precise motor control and energy-efficient braking. As part of the advanced ABB ACS880 industrial drive series, it delivers exceptional performance for heavy-duty machinery and process automation systems.
Unlike conventional drives that dissipate braking energy as heat, the ACS880-11 regenerative drive returns excess energy back to the power network, reducing energy consumption and minimising cooling requirements. This makes it an ideal solution for applications with frequent braking cycles or continuous regenerative operation.
With a rated output power of 75 kW, a nominal output current of 124 A, and a three-phase 380–500 V AC supply, the ACS880-11-124A-5 is perfectly suited for conveyors, cranes, winches, elevators, centrifuges, compressors and other industrial machinery requiring efficient motor control and energy recovery.
The ACS880-11 series uses active front-end technology to return braking energy directly back into the electrical supply network. This significantly improves system efficiency compared with resistor braking systems, where excess energy is dissipated as heat.
By maintaining a near-unity power factor and exceptionally low harmonic distortion, the ACS880-11 helps improve overall electrical system performance while reducing operating costs. The drive is particularly valuable in applications with frequent acceleration and deceleration cycles.

This regenerative drive is used for controlling industrial motors in applications that require energy recovery during braking and deceleration.
The ACS880-11-124A-5 provides a rated output power of 75 kW with a nominal output current of 124 A.
Regenerative braking returns energy generated during motor deceleration back to the electrical supply network instead of dissipating it as heat.
The drive operates from a three-phase 380–500 V AC supply.
Applications with frequent braking cycles such as cranes, conveyors, elevators, winches and process machinery gain the greatest energy-saving benefits.
ABB ACS880 regenerative drives are widely used throughout industry to deliver precise motor control, exceptional energy efficiency and reliable operation in demanding applications requiring continuous or cyclic braking performance.
