What lands in the panel
The ABB ACS880-01-096A-5+B056 is a wall-mount industrial drive from the ACS880-01 family, ordered for three-phase 380-500 V input. It sits in the Motor Drives category under Motors & Motor Controls, which is exactly where the part shows up when the panel-builder pulls it off the BOM line. Listed weight is 44.91 kgs. That is a two-person lift with a panel hoist on the lifting eyes — not a bench-mount unit. Plan the cabinet structural support and the rigging path before the crate is opened, because once the drive is on the floor the safe move is straight onto its mounting plate.
Where the 096A frame sits in the ACS880-01 ladder
In the same ACS880-01 family the 096A frame sits between the 065A at 23.13 kgs and the 156A at 55.00 kgs. The 040A at 18.14 kgs is the smaller rung below.
Application fit and what to watch on this frame
The ACS880 platform is the active ABB wall-mount industrial-drive line. Sensorless vector control on this platform carries low-speed holding torque without an encoder, which is usually the deciding factor for line builders specifying the current ABB wall-mount family. Beyond the basics, two things govern whether a 096A fits the job: motor cable length, and EMC. Long motor cables produce reflected-wave overvoltage at the motor terminals, which is the usual cause of early winding failure on a retrofit — a dV/dt filter or sine filter at the drive output is the standard remedy when the cable run pushes past the platform's unfiltered cable limit. Common-mode noise is handled at the panel end by grounding the cable shield on the drive side only, with the motor-end shield isolated to keep circulating currents out of the bearing path.
