FAQs
This ACH580 model supports UL Type 1/12/3R enclosures and can be wired to 230/460/575 V systems. It includes a bypass starter, door-mounted control, and an interlocked disconnect, simplifying mechanical clearance, safety lockout, and commissioning in new builds or retrofits. Refer to the enclosure and control panel layout to ensure alignment with your panel schedules and BAS interface.
The drive covers a wide HP range from 1 to 350 hp and current ratings up to 27 A for 20 hp configurations, with selectable voltages at 230/460/575 V. It provides electronic motor overload protection, built-in bypass, and external control connections, enabling flexible integration with existing motor starter circuits and building automation systems.
Yes. The ACH580 with E-Clipse bypass is designed for HVAC packaged drives, and its enclosure options accommodate installation in electrical rooms and outdoors within permitted NEMA environments. Its integrated bypass and control features streamline installation, maintenance, and integration with AHU and RTU systems, improving reliability and energy performance.
The drive is UL-listed and configured for NEMA Type 1, Type 12, or Type 3R enclosures, supporting safe operation in various indoor and outdoor environments. While CE certification details depend on regional requirements, the product is designed to meet common safety and electrical protection standards for HVAC installations.
Deploying ACH580 reduces wiring complexity and field wiring time, lowers downtime via integrated bypass and protection, and enables easier BAS integration. The result is faster commissioning, fewer on-site faults, and improved energy efficiency, contributing to shorter payback periods in retrofit projects and ongoing reliability in high-demand HVAC systems.
