ABB ACS480-04-04A1-4+0J400+0L540 general purpose drive module, a 1.5 kW variable-torque (VT) / 1.1 kW constant-torque (CT) three phase AC variable frequency drive designed for compressors, fans, conveyors, pumps and general industrial motor control applications.
The ABB ACS480-04-04A1-4+0J400+0L540 is a compact and capable AC variable frequency drive (VFD) designed for reliable speed and torque control in general industrial motor applications. As part of the ABB ACS480 general purpose drive series, it provides a ready-made drive package for users requiring dependable motor control, simple selection and efficient operation.
This low voltage AC drive module includes essential functionality built in as standard, helping reduce the need for additional hardware. Its compact cabinet-mounted design makes it suitable for electrical panels and machine control systems where space-saving installation and straightforward commissioning are important.
With a rated output power of 1.5 kW (VT / normal duty) or 1.1 kW (CT / heavy duty), nominal output current of 4.1 A and a three-phase 380–480 V AC supply, the ACS480-04-04A1-4+0J400+0L540 is ideal for compressors, fans, conveyors, pumps and light industrial machinery used across food and beverage, logistics, warehousing, water and wastewater, and agriculture.
Variable frequency drives such as the ABB ACS480 control motor speed by adjusting the output voltage and frequency supplied to the motor. This helps improve process control, reduce energy consumption and minimise wear on mechanical components such as belts, bearings, pumps and fans.
The ACS480 series is designed as a practical all-round drive platform for industrial users who need dependable control without unnecessary complexity. Its built-in functionality makes it suitable for new machinery, panel builds and retrofit projects across a wide range of standard industrial applications.
