The ABB 3AXD50000199570 is a drive module in frame size R11, rated for 160 kW normal-use (Pn) and 132 kW heavy-duty (PhD) output on a 3-phase 380…500 VAC supply. Normal-use output current is 260 A (In); heavy-duty drops to 240 A (IhD). Apparent power output is 225 kV·A, and the module carries an IE2 efficiency level. It is exempt from EU ecodesign efficiency reporting under Regulation EU/2019/1781 §2.3.c because regenerative drives fall outside the scope.
The 260 A normal-use rating (In) governs continuous motor current at 160 kW; the 240 A heavy-duty figure (IhD) applies when the drive must deliver 132 kW under higher overload cycles — for example, a conveyor starting under load or a crusher with intermittent torque spikes. The 225 kV·A apparent power output tells you the transformer or upstream feeder must be sized for that kVA, not just the kW. Input voltage range is 380…500 VAC at 47.5…63 Hz, covering 400 V and 480 V nominal grids common in European and North American industrial plants. Maximum ambient temperature is +55 °C, so the drive can live in a non-air-conditioned electrical room or a hot machine cabinet as long as airflow is adequate. Altitude rating goes to 4000 m, which is useful for installations at high elevation where air density drops and cooling efficiency decreases. No derating calculation is needed up to that ceiling.
WEEE category is 4 (Large Equipment), meaning end-of-life disposal follows the rules for equipment with any external dimension over 50 cm. The module includes two CR2032 lithium coin cells (220 mAh, 3 V each) for backup — these are replaceable and must be handled per local battery recycling regulations. UL technical data lists heavy-duty output at 200 Hp (240 A) and light-overload at 200 Hp (247 A), confirming the drive carries UL listing for North American installations.
Integration notes
Frame size R11 is a substantial module — expect to mount it on a backplate or inside a floor-standing cabinet, not on a DIN rail. The IP20 rating means all live parts are finger-safe but not protected against water or dust ingress, so the cabinet must provide the environmental seal. Standby loss is 243 W, which contributes to the cabinet's thermal load; factor that into your cooling calculation. The module has 2 analog inputs and 2 analog outputs for speed reference or process feedback, plus 6 digital inputs and 2 digital outputs. Communication is via CAN protocol — no onboard Industrial Ethernet, so if your control network is PROFINET or EtherNet/IP, you will need an external gateway or option module. Sound pressure level is 75 dB(A) — noticeable in a quiet electrical room but typical for a drive of this power class. The 3771 W power consumption at rated load (Pcons) is the real power drawn from the supply, including losses; use this figure for sizing upstream contactors and fuses, not just the output kW.
