Product Information
Extended Description
3ABD00048297-D ABB: The ACS580-01 is plug-in ready to control your compressors, conveyors, pumps, extruders, centrifuges, mixers, fans, and many other variable and constant torque applications, in a variety of light industries, including food and beverage, plastic, textile, material handling, and agriculture. All essential features are built-in as standard, simplifying drive selection, and making additional hardware unnecessary. A versatile and straightforward settings menu and assistants enable fast setup, commissioning, use, and maintenance, while a rugged and robust design make it a good fit for various environments. With the ACS580 drives, you can easily take full control of your processes to comprehensively manage your plant. The wall-mounted ACS580-01 comes in an IP21 enclosure as standard. In addition, IP55 and flange mounting units are available.
Plug-in readiness shortens commissioning and reduces wiring complexity, delivering a faster path to production and lower upfront costs. This is particularly valuable on conveyors, pumps, and compressors where every hour of downtime hits the bottom line. By enabling quick replacement and swap-in of drives, maintenance teams can align with lean manufacturing goals. Built-in essential features simplify drive selection and eliminate the need for additional hardware. This reduces bill of materials and simplifies compliance checks during audits. In practice, you gain robust torque control, safe-stop options, and integrated diagnostics that streamline operator training and uptime. Intuitive settings menu and assistants enable fast setup and straightforward commissioning. Engineers can configure drive parameters, select control modes, and validate protection schemes without extensive programming experience. This translates into faster line starts in food & beverage lines, plastics, or textiles where changeovers are frequent. Rugged, IP21-standard enclosure provides dependable operation in typical workshop environments, while IP55 and flange-mount options extend protection for harsher environments. The combination supports installation on walls, cabinets, or inline frames, reducing ergonomic and space constraints. This versatility helps maintain consistent performance across multiple sites. Broad compatibility with the ACS580 family ensures consistent software tools, diagnostics, and spare parts across multiple lines. Operators benefit from unified parameter sets, easier remote support, and simplified firmware updates. Energy-efficient operation and precise motor control deliver tangible ROI through lower energy costs, reduced wear on bearings and drives, and more predictable process performance. In manufacturers ranging from food & beverage to agriculture, this translates to lower total cost of ownership and faster payback on automation investments.
