Product Information
Extended Description
3AUA0000225643 ABB: The ACH580 with ABB E-Clipse bypass has an integrated UL (NEMA) Type 1 enclosure with a bypass motor starter and is available from 1 to 75 hp at 230/460/575 V. The ACH580 with ABB E-Clipse bypass provides an input disconnect switch or circuit breaker, both including fast acting drive fuses, with door mounted and interlocked switch (padlockable in the OFF position), a bypass starter, electronic motor overload protection, a door mounted control panel with graphical display for local control, provisions for external control connections, and serial communications capability
Integrated E-Clipse bypass with bypass motor starter streamlines installation and minimizes panel wiring, delivering a compact, reliable bypass solution. This reduces field wiring errors and simplifies service during startup or maintenance, translating to lower commissioning time and fewer trips to the mechanical room. It is particularly beneficial for HVAC systems where a bypass must be engaged quickly without power loss, such as rooftop units and large air handling installations. Input disconnect switch or circuit breaker is included, ensuring clear isolation for maintenance and compliant shutdowns. The fast-acting drive fuses provide rapid protection and clear fault isolation, lowering arc-flash risk and downtime. This configuration supports US safety standards and eases on-site testing and commissioning during system upgrades. Horsepower range 1–75 hp and voltage options 230/460/575 V provide sizing flexibility to match diverse HVAC loads. The ability to scale up or down reduces over-provisioning and optimizes energy use, improving total cost of ownership. This makes the ACH580-VCR-07A6-4 suitable for both retrofit projects and new builds in commercial buildings. Door-mounted graphical control panel enables local configuration, diagnostics, and troubleshooting without a separate operator station. This reduces field trips and accelerates fault resolution, supporting preventive maintenance programs. Combined with serial communications, it supports remote monitoring and integration with building management systems. Serial communications capability supports plant-network integration and Industry 4.0 readiness, enabling data collection, remote control, and proactive energy management. Compatibility with ABB's automation ecosystem helps align HVAC drives with other motors and drives in the same control architecture. The design also emphasizes reliability through electronic motor overload protection, contributing to consistent performance in demanding environments.
