What it is
The ABB ACS580-01-106A-4 is a wall-mount frequency converter in the ACS580 series, sized for 380-480 V three-phase supply at 50/60 Hz on the input side. The order code ACS580-01-106A-4 is the line a panel builder specifies when the ACS580 frame is the call for general-purpose variable-torque and constant-torque motor control rather than a higher-spec industrial drive. Cabinet footprint is 29.5 cm wide by 20.3 cm deep by 73.2 cm tall, in an IP21 enclosure — that drives gland-plate layout and the cooling clearances the integrator has to leave above and below the unit. Mass of 28.3 kg puts it at the edge where a two-person lift or a hoist is the safer handling plan during panel build.
Input and I/O slice
On the control side, the converter carries two analog inputs and two analog outputs — enough for a speed reference and a process feedback loop without dropping in an I/O extension module. Fieldbus and any encoder feedback card are added separately, so the integrator has to confirm the option-slot plan before the BOM freezes.
Application fit
This class of ACS580-01 drive is the one panel builders reach for on fans, pumps, conveyors, and mixed-motor loads where the standard ACS580 control firmware covers the application profile without a custom macro. On longer motor cable runs, the practical move is to check reflected-wave and dV/dt behaviour against the motor insulation rating rather than trust the headline cable-length figure — that is where VFD selection most often trips up an otherwise correct BOM line.
Sourcing posture
The ABB ACS580-01-106A-4 is specified into the BOM against an RFQ; the qualitative supply window sits inside the 1-10 working days band the catalog carries for this code. No production-status line is asserted here — the conversion is quoted to order, with the order code as the single source of truth for the BOM line and the panel layout above.
