ABB ACH580-01-211A-2+B056 HVAC Drive - IP21 Enclosure
Part Number: 3AXD50000296859
Quick Summary
ACH580 HVAC drive is a wall-mounted LV AC drive designed to control fans, pumps and compressors in HVAC systems. Installers often face lengthy setup and commissioning cycles that delay projects and increase the risk of misconfiguration. This model ships with CE certification and provides an IP21 enclosure by default, with IP55 and flange-mount options for more demanding environments. Built-in HVAC-specific settings and an intuitive control panel simplify startup, commissioning and ongoing operation, while Bluetooth capability enables remote commissioning and monitoring when installed. For building owners and engineers, these features translate into faster project delivery, lower service costs and predictable performance across varying load conditions.
Product Information
Extended Description
3AXD50000296859 ABB: ACH580 HVAC drive offering has all key features built-in to control fans, pumps and compressors, and more complex equipment like air-handling units and chillers, ensuring smooth, energy-efficient operation of your HVAC systems in normal and mission-critical situations. The built-in features significantly reduce installation time and the intuitive control panel with an HVAC-specific primary settings menu and help assistants makes startup, commissioning and operation easy. The optional Bluetooth=C2=AE capability enables the commissioning and monitoring of the drive from a distance. The ACH580-01 comes in IP21 enclosure and can be installed on the wall as standard. Also, IP55 and flange mounting units are available.
Built-in HVAC control for fans, pumps, and compressors reduces the need for external controllers and streamlines wiring, accelerating projects and simplifying troubleshooting during commissioning. In practice, engineers can tailor performance curves and protection strategies directly on the drive, delivering consistent operation for air handling units, pumps and chilled-water circuits. The intuitive HVAC-specific control panel shortens startup time and minimizes operator errors, improving handover to facilities teams and reducing training requirements. Optional Bluetooth capability enables remote commissioning and monitoring, cutting on-site visits and improving uptime in distributed facilities. IP21 enclosure provides a reliable indoor solution, with IP55 and flange mounting options available for more challenging environments. The 211 A current rating and 208–240 V input support mid-size HVAC loads while maintaining energy-efficient operation. Compatibility with ABB’s drive ecosystem and standard motor-control interfaces ensures seamless integration with existing controls and building automation systems. These advantages collectively drive faster deployment, lower total cost of ownership and measurable energy savings across commercial and industrial HVAC applications.

FAQs
Install the ACH580 on a suitable interior wall using the IP21-rated enclosure as the reference. Connect power to the 208–240 V supply, wire in the motor leads for the controlled HVAC equipment (fans, pumps, compressors), and use the HVAC-specific control menu for start-up parameters. If needed, enable Bluetooth for remote commissioning and monitoring. Follow ABB installation guidelines for mounting clearance and ventilation to ensure reliable operation.
Key specs include a 211 A current rating and 208–240 V input, wall-mounted enclosure with IP21 as standard and optional IP55 or flange-mount configurations. It is designed to control HVAC equipment such as fans, pumps, and compressors with built-in HVAC-specific settings and an intuitive control panel. Optional Bluetooth provides remote commissioning and monitoring capabilities.
Yes. The ACH580 is specifically engineered for HVAC applications, including air handling units, pumps, fans, and compressors found in air handlers and chiller systems. Its built-in HVAC algorithms and easy commissioning workflow support reliable, energy-efficient operation across varying loads typical of these systems, while maintaining compatibility with standard motor-control interfaces.
The ACH580 carries CE certification for European compliance. By default it includes an IP21 enclosure suitable for indoor mounting, with options for IP55 and flange mounting to address more demanding or dusty environments. Bluetooth capability is optional for remote commissioning and monitoring, enhancing maintenance capabilities and regulatory conformity through traceable installation data.
The ACH580 enables precise motor control for HVAC equipment, reducing inrush and throttling losses and supporting smoother operation. This leads to improved energy efficiency, lower peak demand, and reduced wear on fans and pumps. In addition, the streamlined commissioning and optional remote monitoring cut on-site service time, contributing to lower total cost of ownership and faster project payback.
