FAQs
The ACH580-PCR-124A-4 is designed as a packaged solution that integrates an ACH580 drive with enclosure and disconnect. It is compatible with ABB ACH580 family controls and standard field wiring practices, reducing integration time. When retrofitting, verify enclosure type (UL Type 1/12/3R) and verify control wiring schemes align with your existing BMS or PLC interfaces.
Key specifications include 1–350 hp support and a voltage range of 230/460/575 V. The unit is available in UL-listed enclosures compatible with NEMA Type 1, 12, or 3R. It provides an input disconnect switch or circuit breaker and fast-acting drive fuses, ensuring safe, code-compliant operation in HVAC applications.
Yes. The packaged drive is purpose-built for HVAC motor control, enabling efficient fan and pump operation in building systems. With local control via a door-mounted graphical panel and serial communications for remote management, it supports varied loads and dynamic building requirements while maintaining safety and reliability.
The drive is UL-listed and designed for UL Type 1/12/3R enclosure configurations, which aligns with common building safety and electrical installation standards. While CE and IP ratings are not specified in the provided data, the UL/NEMA enclosure combinations address core compliance and safety needs for many industrial HVAC installations.
A packaged drive reduces installation labor and potential wiring errors by consolidating components, which shortens project schedules and lowers upfront costs. Integrated protection, local/remote control, and compatibility with BMS systems simplify ongoing maintenance and diagnostics, contributing to lower downtime and a favorable total cost of ownership over the equipment’s life.
