Drive selection memo — ABB ACS800-04-0009-3+E200+J400+L502
The ABB ACS800-04-0009-3+E200+J400+L502 is a frequency converter rated for 5.5 kW output power with a continuous rated current of 13.9 A. It accepts a 380 – 415 VAC three-phase input and delivers a 0 – 380 – 415 VAC three-phase output with an adjustable frequency range of 0 … 300 Hz. The IP20 protection class means it is intended for enclosure-mounted installation in a clean, dry control panel — not for washdown or outdoor placement.
What the ratings mean for fit
The 13.9 A rated current is the continuous output rating under nominal load — sized for a 5.5 kW motor on a 400 VAC supply. The 0 … 300 Hz output range covers standard induction motors at 50/60 Hz and extends into high-speed spindle applications up to 300 Hz, which is above typical VFD output ranges and worth verifying against the motor's nameplate speed rating. The 380 – 415 VAC input matches European and Asian 400 V class grids; it is not a 480 VAC unit, so a 460/480 V supply requires a different variant or an input transformer.
