ACS880-11-032A-3 ABB 15kW Three Phase ABB ACS880 Variable Speed Drive
ABB ACS880-11-032A-3 regenerative industrial drive, a 15 kW three phase AC variable frequency drive designed for precise motor control and braking energy recovery in demanding industrial applications.
Why Choose the ABB ACS880-11-032A-3 Regenerative Industrial Drive?
The ABB ACS880-11-032A-3 (Product ID 3AXD50000047494) is a high-performance AC variable frequency drive (VFD) designed for precise speed and torque control in demanding industrial applications. As part of the advanced ABB ACS880 industrial drive series, it provides reliable motor control with integrated regenerative functionality for applications involving frequent or continuous braking.
This wall-mounted regenerative drive is designed to return braking energy back to the supply network instead of wasting it as heat. This makes the ACS880-11 series particularly valuable in cyclic braking applications, helping improve energy efficiency, reduce cooling requirements and support more sustainable industrial operation.
With a rated output power of 15 kW, a 32 A nominal output current and a 400 V class three-phase AC supply, the ACS880-11-032A-3 is ideal for cranes, winches, conveyors, centrifuges, test benches, elevators and other applications where regenerative braking can significantly improve system efficiency.
