Product details

The ABB ACS550-U1-072A-4+K466 is a three-phase AC drive out of the ACS550-U1 wall-mount family, ordered with the +K466 option code and a UL Type/NEMA 1 enclosure sized for US installation practice. Its output is rated 72 A at 37 kW on a 380-480 VAC, 50/60 Hz supply, which is the figure that drives motor selection, the upstream feeder sizing, and the breaker/coordination study on the panel side. Listed shipping mass is 34.02 kg, so it is a two-person lift and the cabinet backplane must be rated for that loaded weight before the gland plate is cut. The +K466 option is an Ethernet adaptor, which matters for whoever is writing the fieldbus slice on the integrator side — the drive talks Ethernet natively on this build, no add-on gateway required.

Application context

ACS550-U1 drives in the 72 A bracket typically run constant- or variable-torque industrial loads — fans, pumps, conveyors, mixers — where the 380-480 V three-phase rail and 37 kW output land the motor in the mid-frame induction class. Cable length is the usual silent killer on this class of drive: long motor leads from a wall-mount NEMA 1 chassis to a remote motor produce reflected-wave overvoltage at the motor terminals, so the panel layout should keep the motor cable run short or budget for an output reactor/dV/dt filter before commissioning. With the Ethernet adaptor option on board, the controls integrator can drop the drive onto a PROFINET/Modbus TCP segment without a third-party gateway, but the cabinet still needs a clean ground reference at the drive chassis for the communications shield to do its job.

Sourcing posture

ABB ACS550 platform parts in this size bracket are typically specified into the BOM and quoted to order rather than pulled off the shelf for a line-down event, so the realistic move is to put the +K466 build on an RFQ with the 380-480 V / 72 A / 37 kW rating, the Ethernet adaptor option, and the NEMA 1 enclosure listed explicitly.

Frequently asked questions

Will ACS550-U1-072A-4+K466 drop into a panel specified around ACS550-U1-072A-4+B055+L512 without rewiring?

It is the same chassis on the same 72 A / 380-480 V / 37 kW frame at the same 34.02 kg, but the option string changes — +K466 brings Ethernet adaptor versus the +B055+L512 option combo — so confirm the fieldbus slice and any option-card slot usage before signing the panel-cut change.

How is ACS550-U1-072A-4+K466 sourced?

It is specified into the BOM and quoted to order against an RFQ with the full option string and the 380-480 V / 72 A / 37 kW rating called out, rather than pulled from generic shelf stock.
