FAQs
The 3AXD50000646975 corresponds to the ACH480-04-06A9-2 configuration, designed for 200 V systems and typical HVAC panel enclosures. It integrates with common panel architectures used by OEMs and installers, minimizing wiring changes and reducing panel footprint. Compatibility extends to HVAC fans, pumps, and compressors, enabling plug-in installation in new builds or retrofits. Engineers should verify panel clearance, wiring routings, and control wiring compatibility with existing BMS interfaces before integration.
The drive is rated at 1.1 kW with a current draw of 6.9 A at 200 V, typical for compact HVAC drives in medium-sized equipment. This profile supports reliable throttling of motor speed for fans and pumps, enabling energy savings through precise speed control and reduced mechanical wear. The 200 V supply aligns with common European and several regional HVAC distributions, simplifying procurement and installation while maintaining robust performance under varying load conditions.
Yes. The ACH480-based module is purpose-built for HVAC applications, including air handling units, where precise fan control and smooth start/stop behavior impact indoor climate and energy use. Its HVAC-specific settings menu supports streamlined configuration within building automation schemes, and its compatibility with 200 V systems makes it a practical fit for panel-based BMS integration, retrofits, and OEM equipment designed for commercial buildings.
The ACH480 drive family commonly features CE marking for European compliance and safety-oriented architecture that can be reinforced with SIL-ready configurations in safety-integrated applications. While installation details vary by region, these features support regulatory compliance and safer operation in mission-critical HVAC environments. Users should confirm the exact certifications with the supplier for their specific regional requirements and enclosure ratings.
The drive enables faster commissioning via HVAC-specific menus and optional Bluetooth for remote setup and fault diagnostics, reducing commissioning labor and service visits. Energy savings from precise speed control contribute to lower utility costs over time, while improved reliability lowers downtime in critical HVAC zones. Maintenance planning benefits from remote monitoring capability, allowing proactive detection of anomalies before failures occur and supporting a stronger total cost of ownership for building operators.
