FAQs
Yes. The ACH580-01-09A5-4 is designed for wall-mounted installation in HVAC environments and supports retrofit projects. Its IP21 enclosure and compact footprint make it compatible with standard electrical rooms, while the HVAC-specific control features simplify integration with fans, pumps and compressors already in service. For retrofits, verify supply voltage and motor rating align with the 4 kW, 9.4 A output to ensure smooth compatibility with existing equipment.
The unit is rated at 4 kW with a nominal current of 9.4 A, enabling precise motor control for HVAC fans, pumps and compressors. This sizing supports energy-saving strategies such as soft-start/stop and speed modulation, reducing peak demand and improving power factor. In practical terms, you can expect lower energy consumption during part-load conditions and smoother ramping during startup, which reduces mechanical stress and extends motor life.
Ideal for air handling units, rooftop units, chillers, and packaged HVAC systems needing reliable variable speed control. The built-in HVAC-friendly settings streamline sensor feedback, fan/pump control, and compressor modulation. For facilities prioritizing energy efficiency and precise environmental control, the ACH580 delivers improved setpoint tracking, reduced noise, and consistent humidity control in commercial spaces.
The ACH580 HVAC drive features CE certification and an IP21 enclosure as standard, with optional IP55 and flange mounting for tougher environments or space constraints. These certifications and protections ensure compliance with European standards while enabling reliable operation in mechanical rooms, plant rooms, and exposed locations. If regulatory requirements include IP ratings or specific mounting configurations, consult the optional enclosure options to meet your site needs.
The optional Bluetooth capability enables remote commissioning and monitoring, reducing on-site service visits and enabling faster issue diagnosis. This translates to lower maintenance labor costs and shorter downtime during changes in setpoints or configurations. Over the life of an HVAC installation, these features contribute to a lower total cost of ownership through energy savings, improved uptime, and quicker, data-driven maintenance decisions.
