ABB ACS480 compact variable speed drive

ABB’s ACS480 compact all-compatible variable speed drive has been designed to optimise pump, fan and compressor operations easily as well as take advantage of energy efficiency. The series shares the same user interface, tools and options from its previous drives to ensure seamless scalability between them.

All essential functions have been built in to optimise common variable-torque applications via numerous integrated and preprogrammed features such as PID (proportional integral derivative), pump and fan macros and timers. Its in-built EMC C2 filter secures compliance with the latest European and international standards, allowing the drive to be used in industrial and commercial environments.

The Bluetooth connectivity ensures easy configuration of the drive and monitoring of parameters with mobile devices for people on the go. To protect both people and machinery, the drive comes with key safety functions such as a TÜV-certified safe-torque-off as standard.

The product provides easy direct access to critical energy efficiency information, thanks to its built-in energy optimiser. The user has full control to reduce the amount of energy used in their processes to save on energy bills.

It is designed to provide the user with the ability to gain exact functionality to effortlessly and intuitively control many standard applications for energy-efficient control of light industries, including food and beverage, logistics and warehousing, water and wastewater.
