ABB’s new series of DC variable speed drives allow users with a large installed base to get better performance from their existing systems.

With the new DCS880 VSDs, customers who are heavily invested in a DC system have the option to continue using DC technology while better aligning with modern AC advancements. The DC VSDs are built on ABB’s all-compatible, common drive platform, sharing the same control panel, features and tools as recent- and future-generation ABB drives.

DCS880 drives have the flexibility to meet the precise needs of a broad range of industrial environments and applications with superior speed and torque control in a compact, space-saving design that easily fits into electrical control rooms. They can handle advanced programming with standard IEC languages and include many ready-made, dedicated application programs, including those for a variety of cranes, such as industrial, harbor, tower and marine deck cranes.

Other suitable applications include:

  • Extruders

  • Winches

  • Winders

  • Conveyors

  • Mixers

  • Mill stands

  • Centrifuges

  • Test benches

  • Elevators

  • Electrolysis

  • Kilns

  • Magnets

  • Battery charging
