What it is and where it sits
The ABB ACS560-01-04A0-4 is a motor drive from the ACS560 series, specified into the low-voltage drive class used for general-purpose motor control panels. At 1.60 kgs it is a compact wall-mount style drive — light enough for single-person handling in a panel build, no lifting kit needed.
Application fit and sizing
The 04A0 rating in the code suffix points to the low-current end of the ACS560 line — sized for fractional-to-low-kW motor loads typical of fans, pumps, and conveyor duty, where variable torque and modest overloads dominate.
Panel-side notes
The compact 1.60 kgs chassis keeps DIN-rail or wall-mount density in the panel comfortable — gland plate layout follows the ABB ACS-series footprint convention rather than the larger ACS580 frame. Long motor cable runs call for an output filter or dV/dt reactor to limit reflected-wave overvoltage at the motor terminals.
Second-source posture in the ABB drive family
Closest ABB-family peers are the ACS580-01-031A-2 at 2.99 kgs, the ACS380-040S-06A9-2 at 1.81 kgs, and the ACS380-040C-02A6-4+K490 at 1.81 kgs — same panel-builder decision set, not direct drop-ins.
