ABB ACS580-07-0246A-4 Cabinet Drive 132 kW 246 A
Description
What the ACS580-07-0246A-4 is
ACS580-07-0246A-4 is the finished cabinet version of the ACS580 that ABB rates at 132 kW and 400 V. Frame R8 holds the 246 A, 132 kW power stage. Engineers pick this size for mine and process fans and compressor and blower duty. STO, the panel and a mounting platform are part of the standard cabinet-built drive.

| Nominal rating | 132 kW, 246 A |
| Light-overload use | 132 kW, 234 A |
| Heavy-duty use | 110 kW, 206 A (150% overload) |
| Maximum output current | 350 A |
| Frame size | R8 |

Ratings and motor matching of the ACS580-07-0246A-4
Two duty classes apply: light overload at 234 A and 132 kW, heavy duty at 206 A and 110 kW. Maximum output current is 350 A. Overload capability: 110% in light-overload use, 150% in heavy duty, each for 1 minute per 10 minutes at 40 degrees C. For North American supplies the table shows 200 Hp at 240 A (light) and 150 Hp at 180 A (heavy). Variable-torque loads such as pumps and fans normally use the light-overload column.
The catalogue names 170M5408 400 A fuses for IEC and 170M5408 400 A for UL. The cabinet loses 3719 W and reaches 65 dBA. Cabinet-built drives are offered up to IP54 according to the application notes in the catalogue.
Floor space: 530 mm by 673 mm, 2145 mm tall, 255 kg. Because the cabinet is pre-engineered, the buyer avoids panel design and gets a tested unit for installation on a plinth.
Reading the type code
In the code ACS580-07-0246A-4 the 7 marks the cabinet-built drive, the current figure is 246 A and the final 4 is the 380 to 480 V class. Plus codes add features, for example +K454 for FPBA-01 PROFIBUS DP, +K457 for FCAN-01 CANopen, +K458 for FSCA-01 Modbus RTU. Category C2 applies to wall-mounted drives and cabinets to R9, while modules and R10 or R11 cabinet drives meet C3 without external filters. Chopper and resistor are external for frame R8.

Documentation and ordering
This page follows the linked ACS580 catalogue (3AUA0000145061, Rev G) and the ABB product page for the ACS580-07-0246A-4. Seven Star LLC quotes the ACS580-07-0246A-4 from Muscat after receiving the motor nameplate, supply voltage and option list. Before ordering, check the exact code and options, the motor rating, braking needs and site derating in the ACS580 hardware manuals. For the ACS580-07-0246A-4, tell us the application, the cable lengths, the ambient temperature and the installation altitude so derating can be checked before the offer is issued. A cabinet of this size is normally delivered on a plinth, so confirm door swing, cable entry from below or above and the lifting method with the site drawings before the order is released. Browse neighbouring ratings in AC drives; the ABB ACS580 drive page describes the range.

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.
