The ABB 3ABD00058708-D is an ACH531-01 series wall-mounted drive for HVAC applications, rated for 3-phase 380-500 V input. It delivers 160 kW output power at 293 A in normal use, with a light-overload rating of 278 A. Frame size R8, IP20 enclosure, open type. Lifecycle is active — this is current production, no phase-out.
Sizing and overload
Normal-use rating is 293 A; light-overload drops to 278 A. That 15 A difference means the drive handles a 5% overload margin without derating — typical for constant-torque HVAC loads like fans and pumps where peak demand stays under the continuous curve. If your motor nameplate sits above 278 A, you're into the normal-use band; below that, the light-overload headroom is there.
Wall-mounted, IP20, open type. That means it's for indoor panel or machine-mount — no washdown, no outdoor exposure. Frame size R8 suggests a larger footprint; plan for adequate clearance around the heatsink fins and a gland plate sized for the incoming cable (likely M25 or larger, depending on local code).
