The ABB 3AUD0000003513 is an ACQ580-series LV AC drive package configured for 3R irrigation duty, built on an R4 frame. It takes 440–480 V three-phase input at 50/60 Hz and delivers 40 A heavy-duty (30 Hp) or 52 A light-overload (40 Hp) output per UL. The R4 frame size tells you the physical footprint and cooling capacity — it's the mid-range mechanical platform for this series, sized for the thermal load of continuous pump operation. IP21 and NEMA 1 enclosure means it's suitable for indoor or sheltered outdoor installation where drip protection is sufficient; for direct washdown exposure you'd need a higher IP rating.

Frequently asked questions
What is 3AUD0000003513's frame size and what does R4 mean?
The frame size is R4. In the ACQ580 series, R4 is the mid-range mechanical platform — it determines the mounting footprint, bus bar spacing, and cooling duct dimensions. It's the frame you'd expect for a 30–40 Hp drive at 480 V.
What are the heavy-duty and light-overload ratings for 3AUD0000003513?
Heavy-duty use (constant torque, e.g. conveyors or positive-displacement pumps) is rated at 40 A output, 30 Hp. Light-overload use (variable torque, e.g. centrifugal pumps and fans) is rated at 52 A output, 40 Hp. Both ratings are UL-listed at 460 V.
