Drive selection memo
The ABB ACH580-01-046A-4 is a wall-mount variable frequency drive from the ACH580-01 series, rated for 46 A output. It's a current-production unit, so you're not hunting NOS or surplus — this one's still on the catalog.

The ABB ACH580-01-046A-4 is a wall-mount variable frequency drive from the ACH580-01 series, rated for 46 A output. It's a current-production unit, so you're not hunting NOS or surplus — this one's still on the catalog.
ACH580-01-014A-4 sits in the same ACH580-01 wall-mount frame and is the natural cross-shop if a -046A-4 slot must be filled, but the current step encoded in the suffix differs and the panel fit has to be confirmed against the motor nameplate rather than assumed from the shared frame. The unit masses are 5.53 kgs for the -046A-4 and 6.80 kgs for the -014A-4, which is a real delta but not the parameter that decides interchange.
Both parts share the ACH580-01 wall-mount frame, but the current step encoded in the suffix is different, so wiring and breaker sizing have to be re-checked against the new part's nameplate even though the physical footprint is in the same family. Treat it as a frame-compatible candidate, not a guaranteed drop-in, and verify the motor current and cable sizing before commissioning.
Compliance documentation (RoHS, REACH, UL, IEC) for the ACH580-01 series is the OEM document set — it is not a field on this catalog listing, so the compliance pack has to come from the ABB channel with the RFQ rather than from the spec row.
