Product Information
Extended Description
3AUA0000004224-D ABB: ACS550-01-06A9-4+B055,6.9A,380V,IP54
IP54 protection protects the drive in dusty and damp plant areas, reducing field maintenance and downtime while enabling reliable operation in harsh environments. This rugged enclosure translates to longer service intervals, lower repair costs, and more consistent process performance for continuous-duty applications such as material handling and packaging lines. The 380V input with a 6.9A current rating supports efficient three-phase motor control, delivering smooth starts and controlled acceleration that minimize mechanical stress on pumps and fans. Built-in braking options, including B055, help absorb energy during stop cycles, reducing wear on motors and power electronics and improving overall system efficiency. The ACS550's energy-aware control algorithms, soft-start behavior, and pre-configured profiles optimize speed, torque, and load matching, resulting in lower energy bills and improved lifecycle costs. Compatibility with ABB control interfaces and straightforward configuration simplifies retrofit projects, lowers commissioning risk, and accelerates time-to-value for midmarket automation deployments. This combination of performance, protection, and integration makes it a compelling choice for facilities seeking predictable, compliant, and cost-effective motor control.

FAQs
Ensure the drive is wired for a 380V three-phase supply and that wiring routes, cable routing, and protective enclosure meet IP54 requirements. Verify compatible control signals and start/stop inputs with existing ABB motors, and configure the drive using ABB’s commissioning tools to match motor nameplate data, load type, and duty cycle. Proper mounting, ventilation, and grounding are essential to maintain performance and protect the enclosure in dusty or humid facilities.
Key specs include the 6.9A current rating and 380V input, which define the torque and speed range for your motor. Consider duty cycle, acceleration/deceleration times, and protection features like IP54 for environmental resilience. Ensure the drive’s motor control profile aligns with the pump or fan load, enabling smooth starts, reduced inrush, and energy savings while maintaining process requirements.
Yes, the IP54-rated enclosure provides protection against dust ingress and splash exposure, making it suitable for rugged plant floors, outdoor zones with cover, or damp production lines. For European operations, CE-compliant safety features further support regulatory alignment. Routine maintenance should still follow ABB guidelines to preserve enclosure integrity and keep ambient temperatures within operating limits.
The device is designed to meet IP54 protection requirements and is compatible with European safety standards, supporting CE-related compliance workflows. For regulated industries or SIL-rated environments, verify whether additional safety certifications or system-level approvals are required, and plan integration with your safety PLCs and machine protection systems accordingly.
Expect improvements in energy efficiency through optimized motor speed control, smoother starts, and reduced mechanical wear on pumps and fans. The drive also lowers maintenance frequency by protecting against peak inrush and providing programmable profiles that match process loads. When combined with existing ABB infrastructure, these benefits translate into lower operating costs, better process reliability, and faster time-to-value for automation projects.
