Product Information
Extended Description
3AUA0000226139 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.
Feature → Business Impact → Application: The ACH580 packaged drive includes a door-mounted input disconnect switch with padlockable OFF and fast acting drive fuses, which streamlines safe maintenance procedures and minimizes downtime during service calls in HVAC systems. This leads to faster installation in new or retrofit projects and reduces safety risk for technicians in industrial environments. Application contexts include rooftop units and air handling systems where quick lockout is essential. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Electronic motor overload protection mitigates motor damage and protects critical ventilation loads, lowering maintenance costs and extending equipment life. This is particularly valuable for large air handlers and variable air volume systems where motor stress varies with load. Feature → Business Impact → Application: A door-mounted graphical control panel provides local access with intuitive display, accelerating commissioning and on-site adjustments. This is beneficial in retrofit projects or facilities with limited access to centralized control, enabling faster troubleshooting and reduced commissioning time. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Serial communications capability enables seamless integration with building management systems and external controllers, supporting centralized monitoring, remote diagnostics, and energy-management initiatives across multiple AHUs and fans. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The broad horsepower range from 1 to 350 hp and voltages of 230/460/575 V offer flexibility for diverse HVAC applications, from small fans to large rooftop units, enabling standardization across facilities and reducing spare parts inventory. Feature → Business Impact → Application: UL listing and NEMA Type 1/12/3R enclosure options ensure compliance with safety standards and environmental protection, easing procurement for both new builds and regulated retrofit projects while accommodating indoor and moderate outdoor installations.
