Product details

The ABB 3AXD50000158072 is an ACS880-37-0169A-3 low-harmonic drive rated for 90 kW normal use (Pn) and 169 A continuous output (In). For heavy-duty cycles it delivers 75 kW (PhD) at 145 A (IhD); a light-overload rating of 90 kW (PlD) at 161 A (IlD) sits between the two. The drive runs on 380–415 V three-phase, 48–63 Hz input.

Sizing and duty-cycle fit

The 169 A normal-use rating matches a 90 kW motor on a constant-torque load. If your application cycles hard — conveyor starts, extruder overloads — the heavy-duty curve at 145 A (75 kW) is the number that holds takt time. The light-overload figure (161 A, 90 kW) covers occasional peaks without derating the drive.

Physical and environmental constraints

Frame size R8 with IP22 protection and a NEMA Type 1 enclosure. Rated for 1000 m altitude without derating; above that, consult the thermal curve. Maximum ambient 40 °C — plan panel ventilation if your cabinet runs hotter. The 70 dB(A) sound level is typical for an R8 drive under load; factor it into your noise budget if the drive sits near operator stations.

Lifecycle status is active. The drive carries SCIP number 9ECED1FE-316A-4BF4-991E-2606BB5FE13A (Finland) and is classified under WEEE Category 4 (Large Equipment).

Sourcing posture

This is a current-production drive. No direct pin-compatible alternative exists at the same R8 frame and 169 A rating.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest pin-compatible alternative to 3AXD50000158072 in this component family?

There is no direct pin-compatible alternative within the ACS880-37 family at the same R8 frame and 169 A rating. A different frame size or output current would change the physical footprint and electrical ratings.

What is 3AXD50000158072's listed SCIP number?

The SCIP number is 9ECED1FE-316A-4BF4-991E-2606BB5FE13A, with the country code for Finland.

What is the maximum altitude rating for this drive?

The drive is rated for operation up to 1000 m altitude without derating.

What compliance documentation does ABB provide for 3AXD50000158072?

The drive carries a SCIP number and is classified under WEEE Category 4. Low-harmonic variants are exempt from EU ecodesign requirements (Regulation EU/2019/1781, §2.3.d). For RoHS, REACH, and UL documentation, contact your ABB channel partner or request via an RFQ.
