The ABB ACS480-04-09A8-2 is a compact and capable AC variable frequency drive (VFD) designed for efficient motor speed control in general industrial and light-duty automation applications. As part of the reliable ABB ACS480 general purpose drive series, it provides dependable performance, straightforward commissioning and flexible integration for everyday motor control tasks.
This drive module is suitable for a wide range of applications including compressors, fans, conveyors, pumps and simple machinery. Its compact IP20 open-type design makes it ideal for installation inside electrical control cabinets, while built-in control features help simplify setup and improve operational efficiency.
With a rated output power of 2.2 kW (VT / normal duty) or 1.5 kW (CT / heavy duty), a nominal output current of 9.8 A and a three-phase 200–240 V AC supply, the ACS480-04-09A8-2 is a practical choice for 230 V industrial motor control systems requiring reliable speed regulation and energy savings.
Variable frequency drives such as the ABB ACS480 regulate motor speed by adjusting output voltage and frequency. This allows equipment to run only as fast as required, helping improve process control, reduce energy consumption and minimise mechanical stress on motors and driven components.
The ACS480 series is designed as a ready-made general purpose drive platform for light industrial applications. Its compact construction, flexible control functionality and automation connectivity make it suitable for both new installations and retrofit projects.
