ABB industrial drives

ACS800, regenerative drives, 5.5 to 5200 kW

Complete regenerative drives

The ACS800 regenerative drives
are equipped with an active supply
unit. It allows full power flow both in
motoring and generating modes at
a voltage range from 208 to 690 V
(ACS800-17LC: 380 - 690 V). This
complete regenerative solution includes
everything that is needed, including the
line filter, in one compact package.

Wall-mounted regenerative drive
ACS800-11, 5.5 to 110 kW

With the wall-mounted ACS800-11 the
user gets everything in a single and
complete IP21 package. All important
features and options such as LCL filter
and EMC filter are built inside the drive.

Cabinet-built regenerative drive
ACS800-17, 45 to 2500 kW

The ACS800-17 is a cabinet-built
solution for drive applications where
regenerative operation is required. It
covers a wide power range and, like
other cabinet-built drives, it has a wide
range of built-in features and options. It
is available with IP21, IP22, IP42, IP54,
IP54R protection classes and module
package.

Liquid-cooled regenerative drive
ACS800-17LC, 75 to 5200 kW

The ACS800-17LC is a cabinet-built
drive that is equipped with both liquid
cooling and regenerative capabilities.
Liquid cooling eliminates the need for
air cooling in equipment rooms and
delivers effective heat transfer for high
overall efficiency. Direct liquid cooling
also allows to make the drive extremely
compact and silent. This drive can be
provided with DNV, LR and ABS marine
certifications and comes in IP42 as
standard, with optional IP54.

High performance

The ACS800 regenerative drives are
especially suitable for demanding
applications. Transition between
motoring and generating is fast due to
the DTC control method.

The active supply unit is able to boost
output voltage, which guarantees full
motor voltage even when the supply
voltage is below nominal. The active
supply unit combined with DTC control
can even compensate for fast variations
in line voltage. There is no risk of fuse
blow or component damage due to
voltage drops in the network.

Energy savings

The regenerative drive offers significant
energy savings compared with other
braking methods such as mechanical
and resistor braking, as energy is
fed back to the supply network. No
external brake resistor is needed, which
translates into simplified installation and
no wasted heat.
