ABB AG has added two new wall-mounted models to its portfolio of standard frequency converters - and both the ACS580 and ACS580MV will be celebrating their trade show première at HANNOVER MESSE 2016. This makes ABB the first company to offer a product family that covers both the low and medium voltage range, with power levels extending from just a few kilowatts right through to several megawatts. At HANNOVER MESSE this year, the Swiss energy and automation experts are here to show how these new converters can be used to monitor and optimize energy usage for all relevant processes - with built-in energy calculators that display the energy consumed and saved in kilowatt hours, the CO2 saved in kilograms and cost savings in any chosen currency.

The new ACS580 frequency converters can be used in a huge range of industrial applications. With all the essential functions integrated as standard, setup and commissioning are no hassle at all. What’s more, with no additional hardware necessary in the majority of cases, selecting the necessary drive is far easier. As a result, the ACS580 is delivered ready for immediate installation and can start monitoring pumps, fan units, conveyor systems, mixers and other variable or constant torque applications straight away. Meanwhile, test-certified motor-drive packages for the ABB product family ensure fully reliable efficiency for a wide range of motor types. For instance, the ACS580 can be combined with ABB synchronous reluctance motors to maximize energy efficiency.
