ABB 3AUA0000107988 ACS880-01-07A2-3 3 kW 8.0 A 400 V R1 Variable Frequency Drive (VFD)
ABB ACS880-01-07A2-3 (3AUA0000107988), 3 kW / 8.0 A, 400 V 3-phase, R1 frame, wall-mounted VFD, IP21.
Description
About the 3AUA0000107988
About the 3AUA0000107988
At 8.0 A nominal output and 3 kW normal-duty power, the ABB 3AUA0000107988 (ACS880-01-07A2-3) is an R1-frame wall-mounted variable frequency drive for 380-415 V three-phase supplies. It integrates a harmonic-filtering choke, an RS-485 port covering Modbus, PROFIBUS, PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, DeviceNet and CAN, plus 2 analog and 8 digital I/O points onboard.
Selection Notes
The -01 and -3 suffixes on ACS880-01-07A2-3 confirm the same wall-mounted construction and 380-415 V supply class as the rest of the R1 frame, while the 8.0 A nominal output and 5.6 A heavy-duty rating are what actually size the motor this drive can run. It sits between the 2.2 kW / 5.6 A and 4 kW / 10 A models on the identical R1 chassis, so sizing should follow the motor's nameplate current rather than the kW label alone. This rating suits general-purpose pumps and fans around 3 kW; applications needing sustained heavy-duty torque are better matched to the next size up.
