What the buyer is looking at
The ABB ACS550-U1-078A-4+K454 is a motor drive in the ACS550 series, sitting in the standard ABB drives line for industrial motor control. It is catalogued under Motors & Motor Controls, in the Drives sub-line, filed as a Motor Drive. The +K454 suffix in the order code denotes a factory-fitted option package on the standard U1 frame; the drive itself is the ACS550 platform with that option code appended to the base drive designation.
The one number that drives the install
Listed weight is 24.04 kgs, which puts a real requirement on the mounting surface and on the person handling it during panel build or replacement. For the panel builder, that mass governs the choice of backplate fixings and the lifting plan on site — the drive is not a one-hand swap.
Cross-shopping against the 096A-4
The ACS550-U1-096A-4 is a real candidate in the same U1 frame, listed at 19.96 kgs, and is what a buyer cross-shopping headroom against this code would weigh. The weight gap between the two reflects their different current ratings, so a swap from 078A-4 to 096A-4 is a rating change as well as a mass change — verify the motor nameplate current before treating the 096A-4 as a direct substitute.
Sourcing posture
This is an ABB ACS550 series drive specified into a BOM line; supply is quoted to order against an RFQ against the exact order code ACS550-U1-078A-4+K454, including the +K454 option build.
