ABB ACS880-07-0169A-3 Cabinet Drive 90 kW 169 A
Description
What the ACS880-07-0169A-3 is
The ACS880-07-0169A-3 is an ABB ACS880-07 cabinet-built single drive for a 380 to 415 V supply. The cabinet contains a frame R7 module delivering 169 A (90 kW typical motor power). Typical jobs are cooling-water and booster stations and large pumps and blowers. ABB supplies the drive, fuses, choke and main switch as one tested cabinet, which shortens panel design on site.

Duty classes, size and heat loss
Two duty classes apply: light duty at 161 A and 90 kW, heavy duty at 145 A and 75 kW. Light duty 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. Start from the motor nameplate current, then verify derating for temperature, altitude and switching frequency.
Floor space needed is 430 mm by 673 (698 for IP54) mm; height 2145 mm for IP22 and IP42, 2315 mm for IP54; mass 250 kg. The drive loses about 2440 W and runs at 67 dB(A) with 1750 m3/h of cooling air.
Options that change the order
The brake chopper is a selectable option (+D150). The catalogue pairs it with SAFUR125F500 (4 ohm, 3600 kJ, 9 kW continuous) for 90 kW braking power and gives a minimum resistance of 3.3 ohm. A cabinet-mounted sine filter, type B84143V0162S229, is listed for 153 A at 75 kW for long motor cables. Typical add-ons are EMC filters, du/dt filters, fieldbus adapters, I/O extensions, safety modules and encoder interfaces. Three option slots on the control unit take fieldbus adapters, I/O extensions, feedback modules and a safety functions module.

Documents and quotation
The ratings, dimensions and option data were read from ABB’s ACS880 single drives catalogue 3AUA0000098111 (linked here) and ABB’s page for the ACS880-07-0169A-3. Seven Star LLC supplies the ACS880-07-0169A-3 on request from Muscat; availability and lead time are stated in the quotation. Confirm before ordering: plus codes, motor current, enclosure class, filters, brake resistor and derating for temperature and altitude. A quotation request is quickest when it names the motor kW and nameplate current, the supply voltage and frequency and the fieldbus the ACS880-07-0169A-3 must talk to. Other sizes are listed in AC drives, and a smaller general purpose family is on the ABB ACS580 page. A cabinet at this rating is normally lifted onto a plinth or cable trench, so confirm door swing, cable entry from below or above and the lifting method against the site drawings before the order is released.

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.
