Product Information
Extended Description
3AUA0000225702 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
Feature → Business Impact → Application: The packaged design combines an ACH580 drive with a door-mounted input disconnect and either fast-acting fuses or an input circuit breaker, reducing wiring complexity and panel space while boosting safety and code compliance in HVAC installations. This enables faster commissioning and easier maintenance in rooftop units and air-handling systems, where space and reliability are critical. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Available from 1 to 350 hp at 230/460/575 V, the drive scales to a wide range of fans, pumps, and compressors, delivering precise speed control and energy savings across facilities of varying size. This supports energy management programs and lowers total cost of ownership in large building portfolios. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The door-mounted control panel with graphical display provides local control and diagnostics, cutting down commissioning time and expediting fault isolation during startup and routine service. This is especially valuable in retrofit projects where downtime must be minimized. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Electronic motor overload protection protects motors from thermal damage, reducing maintenance costs and extending motor life in demanding HVAC applications like air handling, chilled water pumps, and boiler feed pumps. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Provisions for external control connections and serial communications enable seamless integration with PLCs/SCADA and BIM or building management systems, supporting centralized monitoring, remote fault alerts, and coordinated energy optimization across equipment. Feature → Business Impact → Application: With UL Type 1, Type 12, or 3R enclosure options, padlockable disconnect, and compliant safety features, the ACH580 Packaged Drive reduces install risk and helps meet regulatory requirements for protective enclosures and safe servicing in industrial environments.
