The ABB 3AXD50000158041 is an ACS880-17-0180A-5 regenerative drive rated for 110 kW normal-use output (180 A) on a 380–500 V three-phase supply. It carries a heavy-duty rating of 90 kW (156 A) and a light-overload rating of 110 kW (171 A), giving you a clear duty-cycle choice for motor loads up to 180 A continuous. The R8 frame houses the control unit and includes 2 analog inputs, 2 analog outputs, 7 digital inputs, and 5 digital outputs. Communication is via CAN; no onboard Industrial Ethernet port is fitted. The enclosure is IP22 / NEMA Type 1, rated for a maximum ambient of 40 °C and an altitude of 1000 m without derating.
The three output ratings let you match the drive to the application without oversizing. The UL listing mirrors the heavy-duty and light-overload currents: 156 A (125 Hp) for heavy-duty, 180 A (150 Hp) for light-overload. Normal-use UL figures are not declared, which is typical for regenerative drives that are often applied outside standard UL motor-duty profiles.
Sourcing and lifecycle — active, quoted to order
The regenerative design is exempt from EU ecodesign requirements under Regulation EU/2019/1781 §2.3.c, so energy-efficiency data is not provided. The SCIP number (82D82DAE-9725-4373-865D-AA949B97DE50 Finland) is on file for substance compliance reporting. WEEE category is 4 (Large Equipment, any external dimension more than 50 cm).
Mounting and environmental notes
R8 frame means the drive is a floor-standing cabinet unit — not a panel-mount module. Plan for a footprint that accommodates the IP22 enclosure with top and bottom cable entry. The sound level is 70 dB(A), so it is audible in a control room but not deafening. Operating humidity is 5–95% RH non-condensing. The drive includes two CR2032 lithium coin cells (3 V, 220 mAh each) for backup. These are field-replaceable; factor them into your spares plan if the drive is in a remote or hard-to-access location.
