Product details

The ABB 3AXD50000956753 is a frame-size R4 LV AC micro drive for HVAC fan and pump duty. It delivers 11 kW normal-use output (48.0 A) on a 200–240 V three-phase supply, with a heavy-duty rating of 7.5 kW (30.8 A) for constant-torque loads. Light-overload use holds at 11 kW (46.2 A). UL ratings match: 15 Hp normal-use (46.2 A), 10 Hp heavy-duty (32.0 A), and 15 Hp light-overload (46.2 A). The drive includes a control unit, runs on BACnet communication, and is rated IP20 with a NEMA Open Type enclosure.

Heavy-duty current (30.8 A) governs constant-torque applications like screw compressors or positive-displacement pumps. The 200–240 V input range covers common North American 208 V and 240 V supplies; frequency acceptance spans 47.5 to 63 Hz, so it handles 50 Hz and 60 Hz grids without reconfiguration. Standby loss sits at 35 W — relevant for continuously powered installations where idle heat adds up.

Integration notes

Mounts as a module — no separate control unit to order. The drive offers 2 analog inputs and 1 analog output for transducer feedback; digital I/O counts 4 inputs and 2 outputs. BACnet is the onboard fieldbus; no industrial Ethernet interface is fitted. Efficiency class IE2, power factor 0.98. Ambient temperature ceiling is 60 °C. Sound pressure level measures 69 dB(A) — typical for a ventilated drive of this power class.

Frequently asked questions

What compliance documentation is available for this drive?

RoHS compliance follows EU Directive 2011/65/EU (RoHS date 20240110); REACH declaration confirms substances above 0.1 mass percentage (REACH date 20250905). The SCIP number is 2fa266a4-ca31-4604-a9f6-9646f8174b5e Finland. UL ratings are provided for normal, heavy-duty, and light-overload use.

What is the altitude rating for this drive?

The drive is rated for installation at altitudes up to 2000 m without derating.

What is the closest alternative in the ACH180 family?

Within the ACH180 series, the closest sibling is the next-lower current variant (R3 frame, lower output current). The R4 frame here is the 48 A normal-use version; stepping down reduces both frame size and current rating. No pin-compatible drop-in exists — frame and power level differ.
