The ABB ACH580-01-171A-2 is a high-performance AC variable frequency drive (VFD) designed specifically for HVAC motor control applications. As part of the advanced ABB ACH580 HVAC drive series, it delivers efficient, reliable and precise speed control for fans, pumps and air handling equipment in commercial and industrial building services.
This drive is engineered to simplify HVAC system operation while improving energy performance and comfort control. The ACH580 series includes dedicated HVAC features, built-in control functionality and flexible communication options, making it suitable for integration into building management systems and modern automation platforms.
With a rated output power of 45 kW and a three-phase 230 V AC supply, the ACH580-01-171A-2 is ideal for larger HVAC motors used in ventilation, chilled water, heating, pumping and air movement systems. Its wall-mounted construction enables straightforward installation in plant rooms and electrical equipment areas.
Variable frequency drives such as the ABB ACH580 regulate motor speed by adjusting output voltage and frequency. In HVAC systems, this allows fans and pumps to operate according to actual demand rather than running continuously at full speed, helping to reduce energy consumption and improve system efficiency.
The ACH580 series is designed for building services engineers, facilities teams and HVAC contractors. Its dedicated control functions support reliable operation in ventilation, heating, cooling and pumping systems while helping maintain comfortable indoor environments.
