ABB 68878314 ACS55-01E-01A4-1 micro drive, a 0.18 kW single-phase input AC variable frequency drive designed for simple speed control of small three-phase motors.
The ABB 68878314, also known as ACS55-01E-01A4-1, is a compact and cost-effective AC variable frequency drive (VFD) designed for simple speed control of small three-phase motors. As part of the ABB ACS55 micro drive series, it is ideal for basic machinery, commercial equipment and light industrial automation applications where reliable motor control and easy setup are required.
This micro drive is designed to replace traditional contactors and motor starters in simple applications, providing variable speed control in a very compact format. Configuration is straightforward using built-in potentiometers and DIP switches, reducing commissioning time and avoiding the need for complex programming.
With a rated output power of 0.18 kW, a nominal output current of 1.4 A and a single-phase 110–120 V AC input supply, the ACS55-01E-01A4-1 provides a variable frequency three-phase motor output for small AC motors. Its IP20 enclosure is suitable for panel or DIN rail mounting inside electrical cabinets.
Micro drives such as the ABB ACS55 regulate motor speed by adjusting output voltage and frequency. This enables smoother operation, improved process control and better energy efficiency compared with fixed-speed motor operation in suitable applications.
The ACS55 series is designed for straightforward installation in compact spaces. Its simple configuration method makes it particularly useful for OEM equipment, small machinery and applications where quick commissioning and dependable operation are important.
