ABB ACS580-01-033A-4 general purpose drive, a 15 kW three phase AC variable frequency drive designed for pumps, fans, compressors, conveyors and industrial motor control applications.
The ABB ACS880-11-017A-3 is a high-performance regenerative AC variable frequency drive (VFD) designed for precise speed and torque control in demanding industrial applications where efficient braking and energy recovery are required. As part of the advanced ABB ACS880 industrial drive series, it combines regenerative technology, accurate motor control and flexible automation connectivity in a compact wall-mounted drive.
Unlike conventional drives that typically dissipate braking energy as heat through braking resistors, the ACS880-11 can return regenerative energy to the electrical supply network. Its active supply technology also provides low harmonic distortion and a power factor close to unity, helping improve electrical efficiency while reducing the need for additional harmonic mitigation equipment.
With a rated output power of 7.5 kW, a nominal output current of 17 A and a three-phase 380–415 V AC supply, the ACS880-11-017A-3 is ideal for cranes, hoists, conveyors, winches, extruders and other machinery involving frequent acceleration and deceleration. Its wall-mounted IP21 construction provides a compact regenerative solution for industrial motor control installations.
Regenerative variable frequency drives such as the ABB ACS880-11 control motor speed and torque while allowing electrical energy generated during motor braking to be returned to the supply network. This can significantly reduce wasted braking energy and cooling requirements in machinery with frequent deceleration, lowering operating costs while improving overall system efficiency.
The ACS880-11 series combines regenerative operation with ABB Direct Torque Control, integrated safety functionality and flexible industrial communications. This makes it particularly well suited to dynamic machinery and process applications where precise motor performance, controlled braking and efficient energy recovery are important.
