Differences Between ABB ACS Drives ACS-xxx-01E/03E/01 And ACS-xxx-01U/03U/U1

What are the drive differences between an ABB ACS Drives, model: ACSxxx-01E/03E/01 and ACSxxx-01U/03U/U1

Answer: The ABB ACSxxx-01E/03E/01 drives motor information parameters default to the following MOTOR NOM FREQ to 50Hz, MOTOR NOM POWER is in Kw, REF1 MAX to 50Hz, MAXIMUM SPEED to 1500RPM and MAXIMUM FREQ to 50Hz. The EMC metal screw is installed activating the EMC filter. 50 Hertz default output and power ratings in Kilowatt are standard for drives and other industrial electrical equipment in Western Europe, the United Kingdom and most countries located outside the United States of America. This is because electric motors are sized in Kilowatt ratings outside the USA; and, electric motors manufactured outside the USA run at full load speed when operating at 50 hertz.

The ACSxxx-01U/03U/U1 drives motor information parameters default to the following MOTOR NOM FREQ to 60Hz, MOTOR NOM POWER is in Hp, REF1 MAX to 60Hz, MAXIMUM SPEED to 1800RPM and MAXIMUM FREQ to 60Hz. The EMC plastic screw is installed deactivating the EMC filter, but the drive ships with the metal screw to activate the EMC filter. 60 Hertz default output and power ratings in Horsepower are standard for drives and other industrial electrical equipment in the United States of America. This is because electric motors are sized in horsepower ratings in the USA; and, electric motors manufactured in the USA run at full load speed when operating at 60 hertz.
