160 kW normal duty, 132 kW heavy-duty — the rating that decides the load
The ABB 3ABD00045685-D is an ACS580-01 series wall-mounted drive rated 160 kW normal use (293 A) and 132 kW heavy-duty use (246 A) at 380-500 V 3-phase input. For a pump or fan with a quadratic torque curve, the normal-duty figure governs the continuous rating; for a conveyor or crusher requiring 150% overload for 60 seconds, the heavy-duty 132 kW / 246 A line is the one to spec against.
IE2 efficiency — the baseline for the class
Rated IE2 efficiency. For EU Ecodesign compliance, IE2 is the minimum for this power bracket; if the project requires IE3 or IE4, the drive itself does not set the motor efficiency — the motor does — but the drive's internal losses and control algorithm affect the system-level efficiency. The ACS580-01 series uses direct torque control (DTC) as standard, which typically improves motor efficiency by 1-3% over scalar V/Hz control at partial loads.
