ACS310 Fan and Pump specialist - 3 phase Input variable speed drive (VSD)
The dive is programmed with parameters, and like all ABB drives, the parameters are organised into logical groups. The software set inside the drive id packed with features that allow multiple pumps and fans to be controlled in simple or complicated operations. The software also supports a wide range of cleaning and maintenance functions dedicated to these applications, and the timer functions (when assistant keypad fitted) can be used to control the drive at different times of the day.
To aid set-up, it is possible to select pre-defined macros which configure the specialised control features by selecting just 1 parameter from a list. Macros include some simple popular start/stop configurations, PID control, where a plant variable can be used to control any measurable variable, PFC (Pump and Fan Control), where multiple pumps can be sequenced to control a pressure or flow setpoint, SPFC (Soft Pump and Fan Control), where additional parameters can be set to control rate of change of pressure. The drives also have pre-programmed protection functions such as pipe cleaning for preventive maintenance.
The motor control is scalar control, which is ideal for this drive as its software has been developed to effectively control fans and pumps to an Expert level. The drive design includes a powerful set of features which benefit pump and fan systems and their extended applications, both from a control and protection perspective. If requiring a machinery drive, please select the ACS355.
