ABB ACS150 Micro Drives

ABB micro drives are designed to be incorporated into a wide variety of machines such as mixers, conveyors, fans or pumps or anywhere where a fixed speed motor needs to go variable speed motor. The ABB micro drives meet the requirements of OEMs, machinery builders and panel builders. These drives are widely available through the ABB distribution network. The drives are easy to select and provide a range of built-in features as standard including PID control, brake chopper, fixed keypad and speed control potentiometer.

Highlights

• – Worldwide availability through logistical distributors
• – User-friendly LCD control panel and integrated potentiometer
• – Flexible mounting alternatives
• – PID control
• – Integrated EMC filter
• – Built-in brake chopper
• – FlashDrop tool for fast drive commissioning

How to Configure ABB ACS150 Micro Drives

1 - Choose a Construction

The second portion of the type designation – “01U” or “03U” – describes the input voltage and status of the built-in EMC filter: 01 = Single phase input 03 = Three phase input. 

U = EMC filter installed but disconnected. This is the standard configuration for drives stocked in the U.S. The “U” indicates that a plastic screw has been inserted in the “EMC” location on the side of the drive. (To ground the EMC filter and make it active, remove the plastic screw and replace it with the metal screw provided in the parts bag.)

2 - Choose a Voltage

ACS150 is available in two voltage ranges: 2 = 200 to 240 V 4 = 380 to 480 V.  

3 - Determine Type Designation

In column 4 on this table is the unique reference number that clearly identifies your drive by power rating and frame size. Once you have selected the type designation, the frame size (column 5) can be used to determine the drives dimensions, shown here. Note that NEMA 1 is optional for this drive and may be purchased here.
