FAQs
The ACH580 with E-Clipse bypass is housed in a UL-listed, NEMA Type 1/12/3R enclosure with an integrated bypass starter, eliminating many external starters in typical installations. It provides 1–350 hp operation at 230/460/575 V, includes a door-mounted graphical display, and offers a hard-wired input disconnect or circuit breaker with fast-acting fuses. Local and remote control options reduce field wiring and downtime.
Verify horsepower range (1–350 hp), voltage options (230/460/575 V), and protection features (electronic motor overload protection and fast-acting drive fuses). Confirm enclosure type matches your environment (Type 1, 12, or 3R) and that the drive provides external control connections and serial communications for system integration.
Yes. The ACH580 is designed for HVAC applications such as supply/return fans and chilled water pumps. With E-Clipse bypass, it supports maintenance without full load switching, and its 230/460/575 V options cover a wide range of equipment. The compact enclosure and built-in protections simplify replacements in existing control panels.
The unit is UL-listed and available in NEMA Type 1, Type 12, or Type 3R enclosures, with a door-mounted interlocked switch and padlockable OFF position for safety. It also supports external control connections and serial communications for integrated controls, aligning with common North American regulatory and safety requirements.
Maintenance costs typically decrease due to reduced wiring and fewer separate components, along with electronic motor overload protection. Energy efficiency improves through precise speed control and easier remote monitoring. Replacing legacy starters in HVAC systems with ACH580 can yield favorable ROI, especially in sites with frequent cycling or variable load.
