Product Information
Extended Description
3AXD50000270880 ABB: The wall-mounted ACS580-01 is available as UL Type 1 (IP21), Type 12 (IP55) and Type 4X (IP66) designed for OEM and end users who value high quality and robustness in their applications. Coated control boards, high enclosure classes, and motor temperature monitoring ensure processes will run smoothly even in harsh conditions. This drive is part of ABB=E2=80=99s all-compatible drives portfolio, sharing the same control panel, PC tools, parameter structure and communications options as the ACS380/180 and ACS880. Learn it once; use it everywhere. With both V/Hz and sensorless vector control supporting most motor types such as induction, permanent magnet, synchronous reluctance, and optimum pole motors the ACS580 is ideal for use on compressors, conveyors, pumps, extruders, centrifuges, mixers, fans and other variable and constant torque applications, in a variety of industries, including food and beverage, plastic, textile, material handling, and agriculture.
Feature: V/Hz and sensorless vector control provide precise torque and smooth start-up, enabling efficient motor performance across varying loads. Business impact: energy savings, reduced wear, and improved process stability. Application: conveyors, pumps, compressors, extruders. The result is easier tuning and lower lifecycle costs, particularly in high-throughput lines where small efficiency gains compound over time. Feature: Coated control boards and rugged enclosure options enhance reliability in dusty, humid, or chemically aggressive environments. Business impact: lower maintenance intervals and higher equipment availability. Application: plastics, food processing, packaging, and agricultural lines. The protection translates to fewer unscheduled outages and reduced service expenses. Feature: IP ratings and enclosure choices—IP21, IP55, and IP66 Type 4X—enable installation in a wide range of environments without extra enclosure costs. Business impact: capital expenditure optimization and simplified compliance. Application: outdoor conveyors, wash-down areas, and outdoor processing facilities. Feature: Compatibility across ABB drives portfolio means the ACS580-01 shares the same control panel, PC tools, parameter structure, and communications options as ACS380/ACS180 and ACS880. Business impact: faster deployment, simplified training, and streamlined spare parts. Application: OEMs migrating from legacy ABB drives. Feature: Motor temperature monitoring and robust protections help safeguard motor health and extend service life. Business impact: reduced risk of thermal damage and longer uptime. Application: high-torque start-ups, heavy loads, and continuous-duty processes. Feature: Easy commissioning and maintenance with common ABB software and interfaces reduces engineering time and enables scalable automation. Business impact: accelerated project timelines and lower total cost of ownership. Application: multi-line systems and modular plant expansions.

FAQs
The ACS580-01-031A-2 is designed for robust wall mounting with appropriate IP66-rated enclosures or Type 4X housings. Install in a certified electrical cabinet or outdoor enclosure, route shielded cables, and ensure proper heat sinking and ventilation. Use ABB PC tools for configuration, verify motor parameters match the chosen motor type, and perform a commissioning test to confirm sensorless vector or V/Hz control modes operate as intended in your application.
The drive supports multiple motor technologies, including induction motors, permanent magnet motors, and synchronous reluctance motors. It provides both V/Hz control and sensorless vector control to optimize torque delivery and efficiency across varying loads. This broad compatibility makes it suitable for pumps, conveyors, compressors, extruders, and fans in mixed-motor systems.
Yes. ABB designs the ACS580-01 to be part of an all-compatible drives portfolio, sharing the same control panel, PC tools, parameter structure, and communications options as ACS380/ACS180 and ACS880. This compatibility reduces integration risk, simplifies training, and enables consistent maintenance and spare parts strategies across existing ABB installations.
The drive comes with UL Type 1 (IP21) options and enclosure variants up to IP66 Type 4X, including IP55 (Type 12) for additional protection. Coated control boards and motor temperature monitoring provide extra reliability in harsh environments, helping meet stringent industry and safety requirements while extending service life.
Benefits include energy efficiency through optimized motor control (V/Hz and vector modes), reduced downtime via protective features and motor monitoring, and a faster time-to-value with common ABB tools and interfaces. For OEMs, the ability to reuse existing ABB software, documentation, and parts reduces engineering cost and accelerates project timelines.
