The ABB 3AXD50000115280 is an R11 frame drive built for 525 to 690 V three-phase supplies. It delivers 250 kW in normal-duty use (271 A) and 200 kW under heavy-duty profiles (210 A), with a light-overload rating of 250 kW at 257 A. Apparent power output sits at 324 kV·A, and standby loss is 214 W. This is a current-production unit — no end-of-life notice to plan around. It ships as a control unit module, IP20 open type, rated for ambient temperatures up to +55 °C and altitudes to 4000 m. Efficiency meets IE2 level.
Normal-duty 271 A suits variable-torque fans and pumps. The light-overload figure of 257 A gives a little headroom for occasional peak demand, but the heavy-duty line is the one that governs a reliable install in tough cycles. Input voltage range 525–690 V AC three-phase. Power draw at rated load is 4854 W. Sound level is 75 dB(A). Communication is CAN only — no onboard industrial Ethernet. If the line uses Profinet or EtherNet/IP, you'll need an external gateway or a different drive variant. The control unit has 2 analog inputs, 2 analog outputs, and 6 digital inputs with 2 digital outputs.
Installation notes
R11 frame mounts as a module. IP20 open type requires a clean, dry enclosure. Operating humidity range is 5 to 95% RH. Frequency range is 47.5 to 63 Hz. The control unit includes a lithium coin cell (CR2032, 220 mAh, 3 V, two pieces) for backup memory. Make sure the battery is accessible for replacement during routine maintenance — it's a field-serviceable item, not a sealed assembly. WEEE category 4 (Large Equipment, any external dimension >50 cm) applies for end-of-life disposal in EU markets.
