Product details

Drive module for machinery duty

The ABB 3ABD00059696 is an ACS380-series LV AC machinery drive module rated for 18.5 kW normal-use output at 38.0 A, with a heavy-duty rating of 15.0 kW at 32.0 A. It runs on a 380–480 V three-phase supply, 47.5–63 Hz, and carries an IE2 efficiency level. The frame size is R4, enclosure is IP20 open type, and the module mounts directly into a panel.

The heavy-duty rating of 32.0 A (15.0 kW) covers constant-torque applications such as conveyors or positive-displacement pumps where the motor pulls rated torque across the speed range. The light-overload rating of 36.0 A (18.5 kW) sits between the two — useful for applications with occasional overloads but not sustained heavy duty. Match the duty cycle of your load to these curves; the heavy-duty number is the one that governs if you have a high starting torque or frequent stops.
