ABB

Rabwellplc stocks ABB low-voltage AC drives, AC500 PLC modules, soft starters, and IRC5 robotics spares for North American buyers replacing failed drives in HVAC, water/wastewater, pumps and fans, machinery, and industrial process applications. ABB's installed base in the US is heavy on ACS550 general purpose, ACH550 HVAC, ACS800 industrial, and the modern ACS880 multi-drive platform — and we keep parts depth on ACS550 and ACS800 in particular because those drives populate plants where same-day or next-day replacement matters more than buying current-generation hardware. The collection also includes AC500 PLC controllers (PM573, PM564, PM866) and S800 I/O modules, plus IRC5 robot drive modules and teach pendants.

How to Choose

For drives, the first decision is application class. Variable-torque pump and fan and HVAC duty match ACS310, ACH550, or current ACS580/ACQ580 (sourced to order). Constant-torque general machinery and conveyors match ACS150, ACS180, ACS350, or ACS550. Heavy industrial — high overload, regenerative, multi-drive lineups, integrated safety — has been ACS800's role and is now ACS880's. Replacement-in-kind buyers stay on the legacy family; greenfield buyers should specify ACS580 / ACQ580 / ACS880 if there is no installed-base lock-in.

For frame size and rating, match three numbers: voltage class (208–240 V single or three-phase, or 380–500 V three-phase), output current at the duty cycle (heavy duty for high overload, normal duty for variable torque), and enclosure (IP20/IP21 for in-cabinet, IP54 for outdoor or wash-down). ABB type-code reads as ACS{series}-{control}{type}{voltage}-{current}-{voltage class}; the current digits are the heavy-duty amp rating, not the kW.

For AC500 PLC, the active path is PM573-ETH or higher with EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, or EtherCAT communication module CM579. Process and DCS retrofits use AC800M with 800xA. S800 I/O modules are share between standalone and DCS architectures and are the standard pick for distributed I/O on either platform.

For soft starters, PSR is the compact basic line for 3–105 A, PSE the modern controlled-stop line with built-in bypass for 18–370 A, PSTX the high-end line up to 1250 A. Sizing follows the motor full-load amps and start type.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is your typical lead time for ABB drives?

A: Stocked ACS150, ACS180, ACS310, ACS355, ACS550, ACH550, and the most-popular ACS800 spare boards ship in 1–3 business days from US stock. ACS580, ACQ580, larger ACS880 frames, and rare voltage-class variants source in 5–15 business days. We confirm ETA on the quote per line.

Q: Are these new ABB original drives or refurbished?

A: All ACS, ACH, ACQ, ACS800, ACS880, AC500, S800, and IRC5 hardware we sell is original ABB-manufactured product. We carry both factory-new sealed and tested surplus depending on availability per SKU; condition is stated per listing. Tested surplus drives are powered up with no-load to verify DC bus, cooling fan, and keypad bootup before ship.

Q: What warranty applies?

A: 12-month warranty from invoice on new and tested surplus, covering manufacturing defect and DOA. Returns require RMA initiated within 30 days. Extended 24-month coverage available on project orders.

Q: Can you cross-reference legacy ACS800 to current ACS880?

A: Yes. Send the ACS800-{control}{type}-{frame}-{voltage} type code plus the option code suffix and we will return the ACS880 equivalent type code, frame size delta, mounting hole change, and the option module mapping (RDIO, RAIO, fieldbus FENA-21, FPBA-01) needed to keep the existing wiring loom usable. ACS800-to-ACS880 retrofit is rarely 1:1 because frame heights changed in several power ranges.

Q: Are control panels and assistant panels cross-compatible across ABB drive families?

A: ACS-CP-A, ACS-CP-C, ACS-CP-U, and ACS-AP-I assistant panel are designed cross-compatible across the ACS line (ACS150 with adapter, ACS310/350/355, ACS510/550, ACH550, ACS800 with the original CDP-312R or via panel mounting kit, ACS880). The CDP-312R is ACS800-specific and not interchangeable with the modern panels.

Q: Do you offer documentation, datasheet, and DriveWindow / Drive Composer support?

A: Each listing links to the ABB drive product manual. We forward the firmware revision shipped with the drive and the parameter list for the specific type code on request. Drive Composer Pro / DriveWindow software must be obtained from ABB; we do not bundle drive engineering tools.

Q: Can you provide bulk or project pricing for OEM panel builders and water/wastewater integrators?

A: Yes. BOMs with 10+ drive line items, repeat-order panel-build accounts, and water/wastewater project orders qualify for tiered project pricing and reserved stock. Email the BOM to sales@rabwellplc.com.

Q: Do you ship ABB drives outside the US?

A: We ship daily to Canada and Mexico via FedEx and UPS. International (overseas) shipments go on customer-arranged DHL or FedEx accounts; we provide commercial invoice, packing list, and ECCN where required. ACS-family drives are typically EAR99 and not export-restricted.
