Product Information
Extended Description
3AUA0000225691 ABB: The ACH580 Packaged Drive includes an ACH580 drive in a UL (NEMA) Type 1, 12 or 3R enclosure with either an input disconnect switch and fast acting fuses or an input circuit breaker. 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
UL-listed, NEMA Type 1 packaged drive with door-mounted disconnect delivers safe indoor installation and straightforward service, meeting compliance requirements and minimizing downtime. This packaging translates to faster maintenance and less on-site wiring, improving overall reliability for HVAC installations. The result is a more predictable maintenance window and reduced risk for critical building systems. The drive supports 7.5 HP with a 12 A rating, aligning motor control with typical fans and blowers in AHUs, which yields better energy management and reduced operating costs. With 230/460/575 V multi-voltage capability, the unit offers regional flexibility, enabling a single part to support installations across diverse markets and sites. The integrated ACH580 Packaged Drive includes a local graphical display and door-mounted control panel, enabling rapid commissioning, straightforward tuning, and simplified troubleshooting during retrofit projects. External control connections and serial communications further streamline integration with PLCs and Building Management Systems, improving data visibility and control. Electronic motor overload protection guards motors against overload events, reducing unplanned outages and extending drive life. The 1 to 350 hp scalable range supports a wide range of HVAC equipment—from rooftop units to large air handlers—allowing procurement simplification and inventory optimization. These features collectively deliver measurable ROI through energy efficiency gains, lower maintenance costs, and faster project delivery for commercial and industrial HVAC applications.
