ABB 3AUA0000225778 Motors & Drives - E-Clipse Bypass
Part Number: 3AUA0000225778
Quick Summary
ABB ACH580 HVAC drive with E-Clipse bypass optimizes motor control for packaged HVAC systems. By integrating a bypass starter and a user-friendly control interface, it reduces installation complexity and limits wiring errors. This solution leverages UL-listed NEMA Type 1, 12, or 3R enclosure options, a door-mounted interlocked switch with padlockable OFF, and fast-acting drive fuses to enhance safety and reliability. For engineers and technicians, the device simplifies commissioning and maintenance while delivering predictable performance across a broad voltage range. In addition to local control via the graphical panel, it supports serial communications to integrate with building management systems and industrial automation networks, driving efficiency and consistent operation.
Product Information
Extended Description
3AUA0000225778 ABB: The ACH580 with ABB E-Clipse bypass has an integrated UL (NEMA) Type 1, 12 or 3R enclosure with a bypass motor starter and is available from 1 to 350 hp at 230/460/575 V. The ACH580 with ABB E-Clipse bypass provides an input disconnect switch or circuit breaker, both including fast acting drive fuses, with door mounted and interlocked switch (padlockable in the OFF position), a bypass starter, 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 by feature, ABB ACH580 with E-Clipse bypass delivers measurable value. The integrated bypass starter and disconnect reduce cabinet footprint and wiring complexity, speeding installation and lowering labor costs in rooftop units and air handling systems. The UL (NEMA) Type 1, 12, or 3R enclosure with a door-interlocked, padlockable OFF switch improves safety and regulatory compliance, especially in restricted spaces. Electronic motor overload protection minimizes motor stress and unplanned downtime, extending equipment life and reducing maintenance costs. A door-mounted graphical control panel enables quick commissioning and intuitive local control, while serial communications simplify integration with building management systems and automation networks. The system supports a wide voltage range and horsepower rating (1 to 350 HP, 230/460/575 V), enabling scalable deployments across HVAC loads. External control connections and drive fuses provide fast protection, boosting reliability in mission-critical environments.
