ABB ACS880-01-087A-3 Wall-Mounted Drive 45 kW 87 A
Description
Where the ACS880-01-087A-3 fits
The ACS880-01-087A-3 is an ABB ACS880-01 wall-mounted single drive for 380 to 415 V supplies. Nominal output is 87 A at 45 kW and the mechanical size is frame R5. Typical jobs are mills and extruders and heavy conveyors and mixers. Because the choke and Safe Torque Off are already inside, the drive can be mounted on the wall without extra filter hardware.

Ratings, mounting and cooling of the ACS880-01-087A-3
From the ratings table: nominal 87 A / 45 kW, light overload 83 A / 45 kW, heavy duty 72 A / 37 kW, IMAX 122 A. Light overload suits pumps and fans, whose torque falls with speed, while heavy duty is the choice for crushers, extruders and conveyors that need high starting torque. Match the motor current and check ambient temperature and altitude derating in the manual.
The standard IP21 body of frame R5 measures 730 mm high with the cable entry box (596 mm without it), 203 mm wide and 274 mm deep, and weighs 22.8 kg. The IP55 version for dusty and wet places is 730 x 203 x 344 mm and 23.4 kg. Heat dissipation is 1129 W at 90% frequency and full motor current, with 280 m3/h of cooling air and 64 dB(A) of noise.
Brake chopper, EMC filter and output filters
Dynamic braking: chopper a selectable internal option, order code +D150; resistor SAFUR90F575 (8 ohm, 1800 kJ, 4.5 kW continuous); minimum 8 ohm at 45 kW. Order +E202 for a C2 filter, +E200 for C3 or +E201 for IT networks; the standard drive meets C4 on grounded networks. A sine filter, type B84143V0095R229, is listed for 77 A at 37 kW and is useful with long motor cables or submersible pumps.
Control connections include 2 analog inputs, 2 analog outputs, 6 digital inputs, 2 configurable digital inputs/outputs, 3 relay outputs, Safe Torque Off and an EIA-485 link that serves as Modbus RTU or drive-to-drive link. The control unit has three slots for adapters, I/O extension, feedback and safety modules.

About brand
ABB is the Swiss-Swedish engineering group for electrification and automation: low voltage drives, motors, circuit breakers and motor control, process instruments and analysers, control systems and robots. It was formed on 5 January 1988 by the merger of two older companies. ASEA was founded in Västerås, Sweden, in 1883 by Ludvig Fredholm to make electric lighting and generators. BBC Brown Boveri was founded in Baden near Zurich in 1891 by Charles E. L. Brown and Walter Boveri. ABB Ltd is incorporated in Switzerland, headquartered in Zurich and listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange and Nasdaq Stockholm.

Choosing an ABB drive
ABB's ACS drive codes are easy to read once you know the pattern. In ACS580-01-046A-4, "ACS580" is the drive family, "01" means a wall-mounted single drive, "046A" is the rated output current (about 46 A) and "-4" means a 380–480 V supply. The family is chosen by application: ACS355 for compact machinery, ACS310 for simple pumps and fans, ACS580 as the general-purpose drive, ACQ580 for water and wastewater with pump functions such as pipe fill and dry-run protection, and ACS880 for heavy industrial duty with direct torque control. Size the drive on the motor's full-load current, not only its kW rating, and allow derating for the high ambient temperatures common in Gulf electrical rooms.
Where ABB products are used
In Oman and the GCC, ABB drives and motors run pumps, fans and compressors in water and wastewater plants, district cooling, oil and gas and industry. ABB flowmeters, level instruments and analysers are used in water utilities, power and desalination plants and refineries, and SACE breakers protect switchboards in buildings and plants.
