The ABB 3ADT218567S0261 is a DCS880-S02-5200-04R DC converter — a 4-quadrant regenerative unit rated for 5200 A at 400 VAC, 50 Hz. Frame size H8, so it's a large cabinet-grade drive; expect a substantial footprint and the need for a floor-standing enclosure, not a DIN-rail mount. The 82 dB(A) sound level means hearing protection is advisable within a few meters during full-load operation — plan for a separate drive room or acoustic enclosure if noise is a concern on the production floor.
I/O and control interface
The converter carries 3 analog inputs and 2 analog outputs — enough for basic speed reference, torque limit, and feedback loops without an external I/O expansion module. The auxiliary terminals are rated IP00 per IEC 60529, IEC 60947-1, and EN 60529, so those connections are live and unprotected; they must be housed inside the panel with proper finger-safe shrouding or a separate terminal enclosure.
Environmental tolerance
Operating humidity range is 5 to 95% RH (non-condensing), which covers most industrial environments from dry control rooms to humid mill floors. No derating curve is listed here, but for a 5200 A unit, forced-air or liquid cooling is typical — verify the installation manual for airflow clearance and ambient temperature limits before panel layout.
This is a current-production part, not a last-time-buy or obsolete line. No official successor or cross-reference exists — this is the current variant.
