Product details

The ABB 3AXD50000038959 is an ACS580-01-018A-4 general-purpose wall-mounted drive. Normal-use output is 7.5 kW at 17 A; heavy-duty use knocks that down to 5.5 kW at 12.6 A. Light-overload use holds at 7.5 kW but pulls 16.2 A. That three-duty rating is what you check against your load profile — if the motor cycles hard, the heavy-duty number is the one that keeps the drive out of thermal trip. Input is three-phase 380-480 V, 47.5-63 Hz. Frame size R2, wall-mounted, IP21 with a NEMA Type 1 enclosure. Comes with the control unit included. Two analog inputs, two analog outputs, six digital inputs and three digital outputs. Communication is CAN — no onboard Ethernet, so if you need Modbus TCP or PROFINET you'll be adding an option module. Standby loss is 15 W; power consumption at rated load is 240 W.

The drive carries three output ratings: normal use (Pn 7.5 kW, In 17 A), heavy-duty use (PhD 5.5 kW, IhD 12.6 A), and light-overload use (PlD 7.5 kW, IlD 16.2 A). The normal-use rating gives you headroom for intermittent overloads. Light-overload sits between them, same power as normal but slightly lower current.

WEEE category is 5 (small equipment, no external dimension over 50 cm). The lithium coin cell (CR2032, 220 mAh, 3 V) is listed for the real-time clock backup — expect to replace it every few years if the drive sits powered off.

Wall-mounted, Frame R2. Ambient temperature max 40 °C, operating humidity 5-95% non-condensing. Sound level is 64 dB(A) — noticeable in a quiet control room but not loud for a drive this size.

Frequently asked questions

What are the key ratings for this drive?

Normal-use output is 7.5 kW at 17 A; heavy-duty output is 5.5 kW at 12.6 A. Input is 380-480 V three-phase, 47.5-63 Hz. Frame size R2, IP21, Type 1 enclosure.

What compliance documentation is available?

RoHS compliant per EU Directive 2011/65/EU and Amendment 2015/863 (date 2024-05-08). REACH declared with substances above 0.1% mass percentage (date 2025-09-05). SCIP number 4a4ed2db-43e7-4612-8e9c-3921e4acd08b (Finland).

What communication protocol does this drive use?

CAN is the onboard protocol. No industrial Ethernet port is included, so a separate option module is needed for Modbus TCP, PROFINET, or EtherNet/IP.
