ABB ACH580-PCR-04A8-4+B056 Packaged Drive - UL Type 1
Part Number: 3AUA0000226148
Quick Summary
ABB ACH580-PCR-04A8-4+B056 Packaged Drive provides precise HVAC motor control for commercial and industrial systems. Too often installers deal with complex wiring, limited space, and safety risks in crowded equipment rooms. It features a UL/NEMA Type 1 enclosure with a door-mounted input disconnect, electronic overload protection, and built-in serial communications. With 1 to 350 hp at 230/460/575 V, it scales from small fans to large pumps. This combination reduces installation time, enhances safety, and lowers total cost of ownership across HVAC projects. Integration with external controls and building management systems is simplified by serial communications and standard control connections. This makes it a compelling choice for new builds and retrofits in data centers, hospitals, and processing facilities.
Product Information
Extended Description
3AUA0000226148 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
Packaged design with UL/NEMA Type 1 enclosure and a door-mounted input disconnect reduces wiring complexity and safety risks, enabling faster, safer installations in indoor HVAC rooms. Business impact: shorter project timelines and stronger protection compliance. Application: retrofits and new builds in commercial buildings where space is at a premium. 1–350 hp rated range at 230/460/575 V provides broad motor compatibility, allowing you to standardize on a single drive for multiple fans and pumps, reducing spare parts and training costs. Business impact: lower TCO and inventory burden. Application: large-airflow fans and high‑demand pumps in data centers, hospitals, and manufacturing facilities. Electronic motor overload protection with a graphical control panel enables quicker diagnostics and local control, improving maintenance planning and uptime. Business impact: improved asset reliability and reduced service time. Application: facility management and technician support. Serial communications capability plus door-mounted control panel support external control connections for seamless integration with BAS/PLCs, enabling centralized monitoring and data analytics. Business impact: enhanced visibility, predictive maintenance, and energy optimization. Application: building automation projects and energy retrofit initiatives. Safety is reinforced with a padlockable OFF disconnect and robust protection features, helping facilities meet safety standards and reduce risk during servicing. Business impact: safer maintenance windows and compliant operation. Application: HVAC equipment rooms with strict lockout/tagout requirements. Energy efficiency benefits arise from smooth motor ramping and optimized drive control, lowering electrical demand and cooling load. Application: large-scale HVAC installations seeking energy cost savings.

FAQs
The ACH580 Packaged Drive arrives in a UL/NEMA Type 1 enclosure with a door-mounted input disconnect, simplifying wall or cabinet mounting. Installation steps include mounting the enclosure, wiring the input source to the integrated disconnect or circuit breaker, connecting motor leads, and configuring the local control panel. The built-in protections and serial communications reduce the need for extra hardware and field devices, speeding up commissioning and reducing wiring errors.
This solution supports 1 to 350 hp motors at 230/460/575 V, making it suitable for a broad range of HVAC fan and pump applications. The packaged drive includes an input disconnect and electronic overload protection, and it offers serial communications for integration with automation systems. Its enclosure options (Type 1, plus 12 or 3R as applicable) broaden installation environments to indoor settings and protected outdoor locations.
Yes. The ACH580-PCR-04A8-4+B056 includes serial communications capability and door-mounted control panels to enable local control while providing external connection points for BAS and PLC integration. This simplifies remote monitoring, diagnostics, and coordinated control of HVAC equipment, contributing to centralized energy management and fault detection strategies.
The drive uses a UL-listed (NEMA) Type 1 enclosure with a door-mounted input disconnect, offering padlockable OFF protection for safe maintenance. It also provides electronic motor overload protection and standardized control connections. These features help meet safety standards for indoor equipment rooms while enabling reliable protection for motor loads and technicians servicing the equipment.
A packaged drive like the ACH580-PCR-04A8-4+B056 consolidates power conversion, control, and protection into a single enclosure, reducing wiring, panel space, and assembly time. The integrated disconnect and overload protection lower maintenance labor and downtime, while serial communications enable predictive diagnostics and centralized monitoring, contributing to lower energy use and a faster return on investment for HVAC retrofits and new installations.
