Product details

The ABB 3ABD00046436 is an ACS380 series LV AC machinery drive module, order code ACS380-040C-17A0-4+L538. It delivers 7.5 kW output power at 17 A in normal (light-overload) use, with a heavy-duty rating of 5.5 kW at 12.6 A — the figure that governs continuous duty on a pump or fan running at full load without a break. Input accepts 380-480 V three-phase, 47.5-63 Hz, covering 50/60 Hz mains globally.

The normal-use output current of 17 A (7.5 kW) matches a 400 V 4-pole induction motor at light overload — think conveyors or fans with moderate starting duty. The heavy-duty curve drops to 12.6 A (5.5 kW), which is the rating to specify for constant-torque loads like extruders or positive-displacement pumps where the drive must sustain full current cycle after cycle. A third light-overload figure of 16.2 A at 7.5 kW sits between the two; it reflects the same power but slightly lower current than the normal-use line, likely a different test condition or ambient.

Frame size R3 with an IP20 open-type enclosure — panel-mount only, no washdown rating. The module form factor (Mounting Type: Module) means it bolts into a cabinet backplate or sub-panel; plan for top and bottom cable entry clearance per the R3 drilling template. IE2 efficiency class meets the minimum for most industrial installations in regions that mandate motor efficiency tiers.

Frequently asked questions

What is the frame size of 3ABD00046436?

Frame R3. This determines the mounting footprint, cable entry positions, and the compatible braking resistor and line reactor kits for the ACS380 platform.

What is the difference between the normal-use and heavy-duty current ratings?

Normal use (light overload) is 17 A / 7.5 kW for variable-torque loads like fans and centrifugal pumps. Heavy duty is 12.6 A / 5.5 kW for constant-torque loads such as conveyors, extruders, or hoists where the drive must deliver rated current continuously without a service factor.
