This 3AXD50000038960 is a wall-mounted drive rated 11 kW output power and 25 A output current in normal-duty use (light-overload: 11.0 kW / 23.8 A). Heavy-duty use drops to 7.5 kW / 17.0 A. Input voltage covers 380 to 480 V three-phase, 47.5 to 63 Hz. Enclosure is IP21 with a NEMA Type 1 rating.
The normal-duty 25 A output (11 kW) is what you'd size for a variable-torque load — fans, centrifugal pumps. The heavy-duty 17 A (7.5 kW) is the real limit for constant-torque or high-starting-torque applications. If your motor plate says 11 kW and it's a compressor, you need the heavy-duty column, and this drive only delivers 7.5 kW there. That mismatch trips up a lot of first-time specifiers. Frame size R2, wall-mounted. Standby loss is 15 W, and at full load it draws 383 W from the line. Sound level is 64 dB(A) — noticeable in a quiet control room, fine on a plant floor.
Built-in I/O: 2 analog inputs, 2 analog outputs, 6 digital inputs, 3 digital outputs. That's enough for basic speed reference, run/stop, and a fault relay without an add-on card. Communication is CAN-based — no onboard Ethernet (0 industrial Ethernet interfaces), so if you need Modbus TCP or PROFINET, plan for an optional fieldbus adapter module.
Compliance and environment
Includes control unit in the package. The internal CR2032 lithium coin cell (220 mAh, 3 V) keeps the real-time clock and parameter backup alive during power loss.
