Description

3BHB013088R0001 GVC750BE101: Product Overview
The 3BHB013088R0001 GVC750BE101 is a control module within ABB’s GVC750 series, designed for integration into variable frequency drives (VFDs) to serve as the core processing unit for motor control. Its role is to execute advanced vector control algorithms, translating setpoints from PLC/DCS into precise voltage/frequency outputs for AC induction or synchronous motors. In industrial automation systems—such as pumps, fans, compressors, and conveyors—it ensures stable speed regulation, energy-efficient operation, and protection against motor/drive faults.
Functionally, the module processes analog (4-20mA, 0-10V) and digital (24V DC) setpoints from controllers, along with feedback from motor encoders (speed/torque). It implements flux-vector or direct torque control (DTC) strategies to maintain ±0.5% speed accuracy under varying loads. As part of the GVC750 drive family, the 3BHB013088R0001 GVC750BE101 leverages ABB’s drive technology platform, offering compatibility with GVC750 firmware, unified configuration tools (Drive Composer Pro), and seamless integration with ABB 800xA DCS. This platform advantage simplifies drive commissioning, reduces parameterization time, and enables remote monitoring via IIoT gateways.

Core Features & Customer Value​
Vector Control for Precise Motor Regulation: The 3BHB013088R0001 GVC750BE101 uses flux-vector or DTC algorithms to decouple motor speed and torque, achieving ±0.5% speed accuracy and <5% torque ripple. For engineers in cement plants controlling fan speeds to match airflow demand, this reduces energy consumption by 15-20% compared to scalar control, while maintaining stable process conditions.
Integrated Communication for System Integration: With support for Profibus DP, Modbus TCP, and Ethernet IP, the module connects to PLCs (e.g., Siemens S7-1500), DCS (ABB 800xA), and IIoT platforms. Operators can adjust setpoints, monitor motor status (temperature, load), and diagnose faults remotely, reducing on-site maintenance visits. For example, in a water treatment plant, this enables centralized control of 20+ pump drives from a single HMI.
Comprehensive Drive Protection: The module monitors motor parameters (current, voltage, temperature) and drive components (IGBTs, capacitors), triggering protective shutdowns for overcurrent, overtemperature, or phase loss. In a mining conveyor system, this prevents motor burnout during overloads, extending equipment lifespan by 30% and reducing spare parts inventory.
Seamless Integration with GVC750 Platform: As a native GVC750 component, the module uses ABB’s Drive Composer Pro software for parameterization, tuning, and firmware updates. Engineers reuse existing GVC750 configurations across projects, cutting commissioning time by 25%. The module also supports hot-swapping in GVC750 drive frames, minimizing downtime during maintenance.
Rugged Design for Industrial Environments: With an operating temperature range of -25°C to +60°C and IP20 enclosure, the module withstands control cabinet conditions (dust, vibration). Its compact size (180x120x45mm) fits into space-constrained drive assemblies, simplifying retrofits in legacy systems.

Typical Applications​
The 3BHB013088R0001 GVC750BE101 is deployed in motor drive systems requiring precise speed/torque control. In a petroleum refinery’s crude oil pump station, it controls 3-phase induction motors (500kW) via GVC750 drives, adjusting pump speed to maintain pipeline pressure. The Profibus DP interface connects to the refinery’s Siemens S7-400 PLC, enabling coordinated control with upstream/downstream units.
At a chemical plant’s reactor cooling system, the module manages synchronous motors (250kW) driving cooling fans. Its DTC algorithm ensures stable air volume despite fluctuating heat loads, while Ethernet IP sends fan efficiency data to the plant’s historian for energy analysis.
In a paper mill’s dryer section, the 3BHB013088R0001 GVC750BE101 controls GVC750 drives for dryer cylinders. The 0-10V analog input accepts setpoints from the mill’s ABB 800xA DCS, adjusting cylinder speed to match paper web tension. Drive Composer Pro tunes parameters to minimize paper breaks, boosting throughput by 5%.
