FAQs
The ACH580-01-04A6-2 is a low-voltage, wall-mounted drive designed for HVAC, supporting fans, pumps, and compressors. With a 4.6 A rating and 208–240 V capability, it integrates smoothly with typical HVAC loads, offering built-in HVAC-specific control features that simplify startup, tuning, and operation while reducing energy use and wear on motors.
The standard enclosure is IP21, suitable for controlled indoor environments. IP55 option and flange mounting enhance protection against dust and water jets and provide greater mounting flexibility in tight or harsher spaces. When selecting, consider exposure, space constraints, and maintenance access to ensure long-term reliability and serviceability.
Yes. The drive offers optional Bluetooth capability for remote commissioning and monitoring, enabling field engineers to configure primary settings, verify performance, and perform fault diagnostics without on-site visits. This reduces downtime, speeds up project timelines, and supports ongoing remote maintenance for multi-site operations.
Expect improved energy efficiency through optimized variable-speed control for fans, pumps, and compressors, along with smooth start/stop sequences that reduce electrical and mechanical stress. The built-in HVAC-centric settings also shorten commissioning time, lower total cost of ownership, and provide more predictable, reliable operation in diverse HVAC loads.
Primary use cases include controlling air-handling units, rooftop units, ventilation fans, and chiller feed pumps in commercial buildings, data centers, hospitals, and manufacturing facilities. Its wall-mounted design and flexible enclosure options make it suitable for mechanical rooms and compact spaces where rapid deployment and consistent HVAC performance are critical.
