ACS550-01-180A-4 ABB Frequency Converter 180A 380V IP21 3P

1.Overview of the ACS550-01-180A-4 ABB

ABB's ACS550-01-180A-4 low-voltage AC drive is an all-rounder, wall-mounted drive for constant and variable torque loads. Suitable for equipment such as pumps, fans, conveyors, and mixers, it delivers 90 kW (light duty)/75 kW (heavy duty) continuous output power, a rated output current of 180 A (light duty)/156 A (heavy duty) from a 380–480 V three-phase power supply, and operates at both 50 and 60 Hz. It also features IP21 protection.

The ABB ACS550-01-180A-4 is a feature-rich, three-phase low-voltage drive within ABB's 550 series standard drives. Utilizing sensorless vector control technology, it delivers excellent motor control performance, making it particularly well-suited for industrial applications such as fans, pumps, and constant torque applications such as conveyors.

The rated power of this inverter is 90kW, the rated output current is 180A, and the design power supply voltage is three-phase AC380-480V. With its fast installation and easy commissioning, it is an ideal choice for applications that do not require special engineering requirements.
