The 170.0 kV·A apparent power rating tells you the transformer or upstream feeder needs to support that full-load kVA, not just the 132 kW real power — a common miss on motor-drive sizing. Light-overload duty (234 A, 132 kW) matches the normal-use power, so this frame is sized for continuous rated load rather than short-duration overload headroom. Standby loss sits at 47 W — relevant for panel heat-budget calculations in a sealed enclosure. The drive is rated IE2 efficiency and accepts 47.5-63 Hz input, covering 50/60 Hz grids globally. Maximum ambient is 40 °C; the Open Type NEMA rating means it expects installation inside a clean, ventilated enclosure — not a standalone outdoor location. ## Integration notes Frame R8 is a module-style mounting — expect a floor-mount or back-panel footprint with bus-bar and cable entry points sized for the 246 A output. The 47 W standby loss is continuous whenever the DC bus is precharged, so factor it into the enclosure cooling calculation even when the motor is stopped.","metaTitle":"ABB 3ABD00046393 ACQ531-01 Drive, 132 kW, 246 A, Frame R8","metaDescription":"ABB ACQ531-01-246A-4 drive, 132 kW normal use, 246 A output, 380-480 V 3-phase, Frame R8, IP20, IE2.
