FAQs
The ACH580 is designed for wall-mounted installation, simplifying retrofits and new builds in mechanical rooms. It ships with a standard IP21 enclosure and offers IP55 and flange mounting variants to fit higher protection needs or constrained spaces. This enables flexible placement near the controlled equipment, reducing wiring length and improving serviceability while maintaining safe access and compliance with indoor installation norms.
Key specifications include IEC: 1.1 kW power rating, 3.3 A current at 400 V nominal, and UL-derived Pld ratings around 1.5 Hp, 3.0 A. These figures align with typical fan, pump, and small compressor loads in HVAC applications, providing a compact yet capable drive for three-phase 400 V systems and enabling precise speed control and motor protection.
Yes, the ACH580 is specifically designed to drive fans, pumps and compressors in HVAC. It offers an HVAC-focused primary settings menu and help assistants to simplify startup and commissioning. An optional Bluetooth capability enables remote commissioning and monitoring, reducing on-site visits and accelerating project timelines while delivering reliable, repeatable control during operation.
The drive provides IP ratings suitable for indoor and semi-protected spaces—IP21 as standard with IP55 option for harsher conditions. It supports UL-listed or UL-capable configurations and CE-compliant design, ensuring safe integration into commercial building systems and compliance with regional electrical standards.
Expected ROI comes from reduced energy use due to optimized motor control, accelerated commissioning, and fewer field service visits thanks to remote monitoring. Maintenance considerations focus on periodic parameter verification, firmware updates when available, and routine inspection of enclosure integrity, particularly for IP-rated versions in variable indoor environments.
