Product Information
Extended Description
3AUA0000225685 ABB: The ACH580 Packaged Drive includes an ACH580 drive in a UL (NEMA) Type 1, 12 or 3R enclosure with input disconnect switch or circuit breaker, both including fast acting drive fuses. It is available from 1 to 350 hp at 230/460/575 V. The ACH580 Packaged Drive provides a door-mounted input disconnect switch (padlockable in the OFF position), electronic motor overload protection, a door-mounted control panel with graphical display for local control, provisions for external control connections, and serial communications capability.
Packaged drive in a UL Type 1 enclosure with a door-mounted input disconnect and fast-acting drive fuses reduces wiring complexity and enhances safety by keeping switching devices inside the cabinet. This feature streamlines commissioning and maintenance while supporting compliant installations in commercial HVAC environments. Ideal for HVAC fans and pumps in commercial buildings where space is at a premium and regulatory adherence is critical. The ability to operate across 230/460/575 V and deliver 1–350 HP creates a single, scalable solution that minimizes SKU proliferation and inventory costs, accelerating project timelines and improving procurement predictability. Electronic motor overload protection safeguards motors and drives, reducing unplanned downtime and extending equipment life in demanding duty cycles. A door-mounted control panel with a graphical display enables fast local setup and on-site adjustments, shortening commissioning windows and enabling technicians to verify configurations without a separate laptop. External control connections and serial communications simplify integration with Building Management Systems (BMS) and PLCs, enabling centralized monitoring, remote diagnostics, and smarter energy management. Compatibility with a wide voltage range, built-in safety features, and compact packaging collectively lower total cost of ownership while delivering consistent performance across HVAC applications.

FAQs
The ACH580-PCR-096A-4 is supplied in a UL Type 1 enclosure with a door-mounted input disconnect and fast-acting fuses, designed for straightforward mounting in standard electrical cabinets. It supports 230/460/575 V inputs and offers a 1–350 HP range, simplifying stock and installation. For field wiring, follow ABB installation guidelines, secure the disconnect, and verify external control connections and serial communications are correctly wired to the PLC or BMS. This configuration reduces wiring complexity and speeds up commissioning in HVAC systems.
Key specs include 230/460/575 V input with 1–350 HP capability, and a 75 HP, 460 V/96 A rating at peak demand. It features electronic motor overload protection and built-in fast-acting drive fuses for motor safety. The drive provides a graphical local control panel and supports external control connections and serial communications, enabling integration with building management systems and fault diagnostics for reliable operation.
Yes. The ACH580-Packaged Drive is explicitly designed for HVAC applications, combining a drive, disconnect, and protection in one enclosure. Its wide voltage compatibility and packaged design are ideal for fans and pumps in rooftop units, air handlers, and other packaged HVAC equipment, delivering precise speed control, energy savings, and streamlined installation.
The unit is UL-listed for US installations and CE-certified for broader markets, with a NEMA Type 1 enclosure rating providing rugged protection in indoor environments. This combination supports compliance with safety and electrical standards in both North American and international projects.
Maintenance is simplified by integrating drive, disconnect, and protection within a single enclosure, reducing field wiring and potential fault points. The graphical local display accelerates commissioning, while external connections and serial communications enable proactive monitoring. The result is faster project deployment, reduced downtime, and a lower total cost of ownership through improved reliability and easier integration with BMS/PLC systems.
