ABB Low Voltage Drives Capabilities
ABB Low Voltage Drives
Capabilities 2
ABB Drives
ABB is one of the largest technology companies in the world with broad industry knowledge and geographic scope.
It has approximately 135,000 employees in over 100 countries and occupies a leading position (1st, 2nd or 3rd) in
each industry and product area it serves.
ABB offers complete industry and process-specic solutions, from products to turnkey projects in utilities, oil, gas
and petrochemicals, manufacturing and consumer industries, and process industries. ABB also offers world-class
collaborative business platforms and solutions based on open architecture software.
AC Drives
AC drives are used to control the speed and torque of a standard induction motor, the workhorse of industry. ABB
is the market leader in both motors and drives worldwide.
AC drive technology provides complete control of motor speed, increasing the productivity and efciency of the
drive process. When low capacity is required, the drive reduces the machine speed and saves energy. Accurate speed
control of the manufacturing process optimizes the quality of the end product. The Direct Torque Control (DTC)
developed by ABB, and used in the ACS800, has improved control accuracy by making speed encoders unnecessary.
DC Drives
ABB is an industry leader in variable speed as well as DC Drives. Having been the preferred drives technology over
many decades, DC drives products from ABB offer state-of-the-art digital control technology. ABB offers the most
complete portfolio of three-phase DC drives - from 9 kW (12 Hp) up to 18 MW (24 000 Hp). ABB DC drives are
available directly from ABB or through valued ABB Drives partners.
ABB provides best-in-class engineered product solutions and services that improve productivity. This includes the
capability to modify and customize products that meet customer and project needs. Specically, ABB has developed
a tailored business model that focuses on eliminating non-value added activities, maintaining a high level of product
quality, and providing a reliable delivery model with lead times that meet customer dened requirements. ABBs
customer-centric philosophy and commitment to collaborative efforts enhances and fosters business growth for both
customers and the company.

ABB Drive Categories
ABB component drives

ABB component drives meet the
requirements of OEMs, installation
companies and panel builders.
The drive is simple to buy, install,
congure and use, saving considerable
time. It is also stocked, and the
number of options and variants
has been optimized for logistical
distribution.
ABB general purpose drives

ABB machinery drives meet the requirements of
machine building OEMs by supporting a wide range of
machinery applications that demand high repeatability.
The drives have features that make them easy to install
and integrate.
ABB machinery drives

ABB general purpose drives are simple to buy, install, congure and use. The drives have common
user and process interface with eld bus, common software tools for sizing, commissioning,
maintenance and common spare parts. All this is accomplished while still maintaining a high
performance level for simple to sophisticated applications.
ABB drives for specic

industries or applications
ABB offers drives that are designed to meet the requirements of
specic industries or applications. This offering includes drives that
have been type approved by ABS, DNV and Lloyds. Drives for HVAC,
drives for crane applications, drives for extruder applications, and more
are offered. Please contact ABB or one of ABBs channel partners for
more information.
ABB high performance drives
ABB industrial drives are designed for industrial applications, and especially for applications in process industries
such as the pulp & paper, metals, mining, cement, power, chemical, and oil and gas industries. ABB high performance
drives are highly exible AC drives that can be congured to meet the precise needs of industrial applications, and
hence order-based conguration is an integral part of the offering. These drives cover a wide range of ratings and
voltages, including industrial voltages up to 690V. ABB industrial drives come with a wide range of built-in options. A
key feature of these drives is programmability, which makes adaptation to different applications easy. 4
