The Schneider ELAU VDM01U50AA00 is a PacDrive M MC-4 single-axis servo drive corresponding to technical model MC-4/11/05/230. Unlike the 400 V MC-4 versions, this model is designed for a 220-240 VAC mains supply and can be connected to a single-phase or three-phase supply according to the installed system design.
The drive provides 5 A rated continuous motor current, 12.5 A peak current for one second and 1.9 kVA rated output power. It integrates the power supply, DC bus, output power stage, braking resistor and servo regulator in one compact unit.

The VDM01U50AA00 is intended for PacDrive M machines that use a 220-240 VAC supply and require one coordinated servo axis. Typical applications include smaller packaging machines, horizontal and vertical form-fill-seal machines, labeling systems, conveyor axes, printing machinery and compact automated handling equipment.
This 230 V family must not be confused with MC-4 models designed for 380-480 VAC. Confirm the incoming mains system, motor voltage, rated motor current and machine wiring before replacement.
Verify the complete commercial reference, MC-4/11/05/230 technical model, firmware suffix, hardware revision and controller project. Confirm whether the installed machine uses a single-phase or three-phase supply and check the protective devices, mains filter, cable cross-section and grounding arrangement.
Back up the machine application and record the Sercos address before removing the original drive. Verify the motor type, electronic nameplate, encoder system, holding brake, motor cable, feedback cable and Inverter Enable circuit.
Do not substitute a 400 V MC-4 drive for this 230 V model. Firmware-suffix variants also require compatibility verification before installation.
Confirmed related 5 A references include VDM01U50AH00, VDM01U50AK00, VDM01U50AL00, VDM01U50AP00 and VDM01U50AQ00. These versions share the MC-4/11/05/230 current and voltage platform but represent different firmware families.
Related MC-4 current families include VDM01U30AA00 at 3 A, VDM01D10AA00 at 10 A, VDM01D22AA00 at 22 A and VDM01D50AA00 at 50 A. They are not direct electrical substitutes.
Please provide the full nameplate, firmware suffix, supply phase, motor model and photographs of all connectors. Confirm whether the drive is required with cables or other PacDrive components. Product condition, test results, firmware, availability and delivery time must be confirmed before quotation.
