Product details

Integrator's note on this drive module

The ABB 3AXD50000162130 is a 3-phase drive module in frame size R2, rated for a 200–240 V input bus and delivering 3 kW / 12.2 A in normal-duty use. Heavy-duty output drops to 2.2 kW / 9.8 A, light-overload holds at 3.0 kW / 11.6 A. The module includes the control unit and communicates over CAN — there is no onboard industrial Ethernet, so plan for a gateway if your network is PROFINET or EtherNet/IP. Digital I/O is 2 inputs / 1 output; analog channels are absent. Efficiency lands at IE2, standby loss is 15 W. Ambient limit is 50 °C, enclosure is IP20 open type.

Heavy-duty (PhD) at 2.2 kW / 9.8 A covers constant-torque applications — conveyors, extruders — where the drive sees sustained peak current. Light-overload (PlD) at 3.0 kW / 11.6 A is a short-time rating for occasional overloads; the drive can deliver this for a defined period before folding back. Match your motor's full-load amps to the heavy-duty current curve for reliable starting and thermal protection.

Module mounting — frame R2 — fits a standard backplate or DIN-rail adapter (not included). Ambient temperature max 50 °C. Altitude limit is 1000 m without derating. Humidity range 5–95% non-condensing. Sound level is 58.80 dB(A). Standby loss of 15 W adds to panel heat load.

Frequently asked questions

What are the key output ratings for this drive?

Normal-use output is 3 kW / 12.2 A; heavy-duty output is 2.2 kW / 9.8 A; light-overload output is 3.0 kW / 11.6 A. UL ratings are 3 Hp at 9.3 A (heavy-duty) and 11.6 A (light-overload).

What communication protocol does this module support?

It uses CAN as the onboard fieldbus. There are no industrial Ethernet interfaces — a gateway is needed for PROFINET or EtherNet/IP networks.

What compliance documentation is available?

RoHS compliance per EU Directive 2011/65/EU (declaration date 20230303) and REACH declaration (date 20250905) stating substances above 0.1% mass. UL listing covers heavy-duty and light-overload use.
