Product details

The 3AXD50000146161 is an ABB ACS880-37-0271A-7 low-harmonic drive in an R11 frame, rated for 250 kW normal-use output and 271 A continuous current. It's built for 525 to 690 V three-phase input and carries an IP22 enclosure — splash-resistant but not dust-tight, so it belongs in a clean indoor cabinet, not out here in the grease near a bearing housing.

The heavy-duty rating of 200 kW and 210 A tells you this drive handles a constant-torque load like a conveyor or positive-displacement pump without derating. The light-overload rating of 250 kW and 257 A covers variable-torque loads such as fans and centrifugal pumps. The 324 kV·A apparent power output gives you the sizing number for transformer or generator sizing upstream. Input voltage spans 525 to 690 V at 48 to 63 Hz. Altitude rating is 1000 m.

Integration notes

The R11 frame is a substantial cabinet-mount unit. It includes the control unit and communicates via CAN as standard — no onboard Ethernet, so plan for a gateway or fieldbus adapter if you need PROFINET or EtherNet/IP. Two analog inputs and two analog outputs are onboard; digital I/O counts seven inputs and five outputs. The 77 dB(A) sound level means ear protection is needed in the enclosure vicinity during full-load operation. Maximum ambient temperature is 40 °C; operating humidity 5 to 95% non-condensing. The NEMA Type 1 enclosure suits indoor use. The drive holds two CR2032 lithium coin cells for backup — factor those into your PM schedule. This drive is exempt from EU ecodesign efficiency requirements under Regulation EU/2019/1781 §2.3.d because it's a low-harmonic type — the line-side filtering takes priority over absolute efficiency. The SCIP number is 9ECED1FE-316A-4BF4-991E-2606BB5FE13A Finland for REACH compliance documentation.

Frequently asked questions

What is the SCIP number for this drive?

The SCIP number is 9ECED1FE-316A-4BF4-991E-2606BB5FE13A Finland, covering REACH compliance documentation.

What is the altitude rating?

The drive is rated for installation up to 1000 meters altitude without derating.

What is the closest alternative in the same family?

Within the ACS880-37 low-harmonic family, the closest alternative would be a different frame size or current rating — there is no pin-compatible drop-in. For a different power level, look at the frame R10 or R12 variants in the same series.
