UL listings provide equivalent horsepower ratings: 3 Hp heavy-duty (11.6 A) and 5 Hp light-overload (16.7 A). For a North American panel build, the 5 Hp light-overload line is the practical selection for a 5 Hp motor on a variable-torque load. Input voltage range of 200-240 V AC three-phase with frequency tolerance of 47.5-63 Hz. Power factor is 0.98 at rated load. MODBUS is the onboard protocol — no fieldbus option module required for basic RTU or TCP communication. Two analog inputs and one analog output handle speed reference and actual-value feedback. Five digital inputs and two digital outputs cover start/stop, fault reset, and status indication. No industrial Ethernet interface (0 hardware interfaces for Ethernet), so if you need PROFINET or EtherNet/IP, this is not the variant. Rated for a maximum ambient temperature of 50 °C and altitude up to 1000 m without derating. Operating humidity range 5-95% RH (non-condensing). Standby loss of 23 W and total power consumption of 265 W at rated output — factor these into panel cooling calculations. Sound level is 65.8 dB(A) — audible in a quiet control room but typical for an R3 frame drive. No battery included, so no periodic battery replacement on the BOM.","metaTitle":"ABB 3AXD50000162024 Drive Control Unit, 4 kW, R3 Frame, MODB","metaDescription":"ABB 3AXD50000162024 drive control unit, R3 frame, 4 kW normal use (17.5 A), 3.0 kW heavy-duty.
