ABB 3AXD50000157990 ACS880-17-0169A-3 ACS880 ABB Drive

Description

Bridging the gap between light and heavy industry, the ACS880-17-0169A-3 packages 169 A of regenerative muscle into a footprint no deeper than a standard IT rack. Its four-quadrant operation means the motor can accelerate and decelerate at identical rates without external resistors, perfect for cyclic loads such as automated storage cranes or roll-forming mills. ABB’s low-noise switching pattern keeps audible noise below 62 dB(A), allowing the drive to sit directly beside operator desks. Dual-channel encoder interfaces support both incremental HTL and high-resolution sin-cos feedback, ensuring sub-degree positioning repeatability even when gear backlash changes with temperature.

Features

169 A continuous, 220 A overload for 1 min, 260 A for 5 s in torque mode.

Integrated EMC filter for C2 environment; no need for additional line reactors.

Real-time power analyzer built-in: kWh, kVAR, power factor and THD trended to the millisecond.

Safe Limited Speed (SLS) and Safe Direction (SDI) up to SIL2/PL d via optional safety module.

USB-C front port for firmware updates without removing the front cover.

Predictive cooling-fan algorithm doubles bearing life by varying speed based on dust load estimations.

Applications

Frequent in baggage handling systems at mid-size airports, automated parcel sorters and steel-service-centre cut-to-length lines where rapid deceleration of heavy coils is common. The built-in energy meter also simplifies sub-metering for ISO 50001 energy-management audits.
