ABB Drives

ABB is one of the World’ leading electrical equipment engineering and manufacturing companies. The low voltage AC drives are among the many great ABB products. It’s one of the main company's hits and achievements, in terms of quality, advanced technology, and compliance to requirements of a wide array of industries.

What is an ABB drive?

Frequency converters are devices that adjust an electric engine rotation speed when necessary. It may apply for example in downtime hours when there’s no need to run an engine in full gear or power. This allows reducing overall electricity consumption.

ABB drives are engineered, designed, and manufactured based on the latest cutting-edge technological achievements in the field of converting equipment. The newest technical ideas and developments were taken into account.

Besides reducing energy consumption issues, ABB frequency converters give the opportunity to address and solve significant cases in industrial automation and technical process control.

Due to remarkable amounts of power saved as well as major cuts in production waste, the payback period for these devices is sparkly short. These reliable ABB products will help you to minimize downtime and increase production volumes. The processing speed is ensured by complying with even the most strict and demanding technological specs. It was made possible given the wide diversity of software applications available to use in ABB drive operation and management. Advanced controlling features embedded in devices’ design provide accuracy of operation and agile performance facing even the most abrupt changes in the operating environment. ABB drives are supplied in a standard kit or maybe special order manufactured to specific requirements.

There are two groups of low voltage ABB drives - standard and ACS/ACQ industrial drives.

Standard drives are widely used in utilities and other general industrial applications. These models have power capacities from 0.18 to 355kV and voltage from 208 to 480 V
ACS and ACQ drives are used in special industrial applications, for example, pumps, conveyors, water treatment where asynchronous engines are involved.

ABB frequency converters product line offer you impeccable advantages such as

extensive constellations of drives
cutting edge technology user-friendly interfaces
adaptive programming features
state of the art operation software.

What does ABB VFD stand for?

ABB VFD stands for Variable Frequency Drive. This is an electric engine controller which has the ability to modify the frequency and voltage supplied to the electric motor.

AC Frequency (measured in Hz) directly influences the engine’s speed (measured in RPMs). Here, the higher the frequency, the faster the motor may go, increasing the RPM value.

If operating conditions change to the way an electric engine does not need to be run at full capacity during a certain period of time, the VFD is used to ramp down the frequency and voltage during that time period to ease the load. As the motor operating speed and load requirements change during industrial application use, the VFD can easily turn up or down the motor speed accordingly.

How do I choose an ABB drive?

First of all, select your industry. ABB provides outstanding drive solutions to use in Buildings and Infrastructure, Cement, Chemical, Oil, and Gas industries; in Food and Beverages, Marine, Metals, Mining, Power Generation, Pulp and Paper, Rubber and Plastics, Water and Wastewater industries.
Second, consider the operating conditions - regular or heavy-duty, normal or aggressive harsh environments.

Buildings and infrastructure

Fans, pumps, heating and cooling equipment are widely used in building and grounds, infrastructure maintenance. The use of ABB drives can help to reduce energy bills and prevent your equipment from excessive tear and wear.
