What the buyer is actually specifying
The ABB ACS355-01E-07A5-2 is a machinery-class AC drive in the ACS355 family, ordered for single-phase 200-240 V supplies at 50/60 Hz — the -01E code and 1-phase input class are the load-bearing facts for matching it to a BOM line. It mounts as a module for cabinet building, IP20 / Open Type, so the enclosure (not the drive) carries the environmental rating.
Cabinet footprint and the panel-builder view
Frame size R2 lands at 132 mm wide x 344 mm tall x 217 mm deep, with a 2.2 kg drive mass — the R2 outline is what drives DIN-rail or backplate cutout work, not the 2.2 kg figure. Plan the gland plate and cable entry around the 200-240 V single-phase input class: line, neutral, and motor output all exit the same module face, and the 50/60 Hz range means no transformer tap change is needed for either side of the Atlantic — only the supply voltage has to match.
Control wiring — I/O map the integrator works against
The I/O map is 2 analog inputs, 1 analog output, and 5 digital inputs against 1 digital output, which is what the PLC handshaking block on this drive has to address. MODBUS is the listed communication protocol — the fieldbus slice is fixed at MODBUS on this order code, with no second protocol inside the same module.
What the ratings actually decide for fit
The 200-240 V single-phase window gates the motor pairing — this drive does not address a three-phase motor, and the 01E code marks that 1-phase segment. IP20 with Open Type NEMA means the panel, not the drive, is the line of defense against dust and water — anywhere the spec asks for a higher ingress class, the drive has to go inside a rated enclosure.
Cross-reference check against the ACS310 family
Both ACS310 peers also carry a 16.9 cm x 16.9 cm x 23.6 cm outline with 2.5 kg mass, so even the cabinet cutout is not the same shape as the 132 mm x 344 mm x 217 mm R2 footprint here — a panel that was designed around the ACS310 will not accept this ACS355 without reworking the mounting plate.
Sourcing posture
Specified-into-BOM supply: this order code is quoted to order against an RFQ against the ABB ACS355-01E-07A5-2 code, with the listed lead time measured in working days, not a shelf pick — the buyer commits the BOM line on the exact MPN string, not on a generic 'VFD' line.
