Built-in bypass + Modbus integration reduces electrical failure rate by 60%. Contact us now for a quote!

ABB inverters are a well-known brand of inverters developed, manufactured, and sold by the ABB Group. They are mainly used to control and regulate the speed of three-phase AC asynchronous motors. With their stable performance, rich combination functions, high-performance vector control technology, low-speed high-torque output, excellent dynamic characteristics, and superior overload capacity, ABB inverters occupy an important position in the global inverter market.

Inverter (VFD) Model Naming Rules
Although the rules vary slightly between different series, taking ACS580-01-09A8-4 as an example, its structure is usually as follows:
ACS:The product series prefix represents ABB frequency converters. 580:Product serial numbers, such as 580 (general type), 880 (high-end type), 580.
01:Hardware version or structure code. 01 typically indicates a wall-mounted unit with an IP21 protection rating. 04 may indicate an IP55 protection rating, and 11 may indicate a modular unit. 09A8:Rated current. This indicates that the device's rated output current is 9.8 amps. This is a key parameter for selection.
4:Voltage levels: 2 = 208-240V, 4 = 380-480V, 6 = 525-690V. Example of a complete model: ACS880-01-414A-3+E200+P904 indicates an ABB ACS880 series frequency converter with a rated current of 414A and a voltage of 400V, and includes options such as an expansion card.

ABB SS (Soft Starter) Product Overview:
soft starter (SS) is a motor control device that integrates soft starting, soft stopping, light-load energy saving, and multiple protection functions. Unlike a frequency converter, a soft starter only controls the starting and stopping process of the motor; during normal operation, the motor operates at the power frequency.
Series Overview Comparison

Soft starter (SS) model naming rules
ABB soft starters have a standardized model format, such as PSR37-600-70 or PSTX105-600-70, which can be interpreted as follows:
PSR / PSE / PSTX: Product seriesThis represents the functional level of the soft starter.
PSR:Compact and economical. PSE:Highly efficient and compact, with torque control.
PSS:General and flexible. PST(B):Advanced intelligent type.
37 / 105: Rated current:It is the maximum continuous operating current of the soft starter, measured in amperes (A), and is the core basis for selection. 600: Main circuit voltage:This indicates that the device's rated operating voltage is 600V AC. Common options are 600 (maximum 600V) and 690 (maximum 690V).
70 / 11: Control voltage code.
70:This indicates that the control voltage is 100-240V AC. 11:This indicates that the control voltage is 24V AC/DC.
Complete model example:PSTX370-600-70 indicates an ABB PSTX series advanced intelligent soft starter with a rated current of 370A, a main circuit voltage of 600V, and a control voltage of 100-240V AC.

Application Scenarios and Core Value

1. Constant pressure water supply system

Combination method:VFD main speed control + SS bypass backup

value:In daily use, variable frequency speed control saves energy; in case of inverter failure, the soft starter ensures uninterrupted water supply.

2. Mine conveyor belt

Combination method:SS heavy-load soft start + VFD speed control operation

value:During startup, SS eliminates shock; during operation, VFD adjusts the conveyor speed to match the material flow rate.

3. Power plant auxiliary equipment

Combination method:VFD frequency converter control + SS bypass protection

value:In the event of a frequency converter failure, the system automatically switches to direct start via a soft starter to ensure continuous operation of the power plant's auxiliary equipment.
