ABB 3AUA0000226282 ACH580 Packaged Drive - UL Type 1
Part Number: 3AUA0000226282
Quick Summary
ACH580 Packaged Drive, model 3AUA0000226282, is a compact HVAC drive that optimizes motor control for packaged equipment and building systems. Engineers often grapple with space constraints, wiring complexity, and safety when integrating drives into enclosed packages. UL-listed protection in UL (NEMA) Type 1, 12, or 3R enclosures enhances safety, serviceability, and environmental resilience. This solution combines local control via a door-mounted graphical panel with remote control through serial communications, reducing installation time and field errors. Rated from 1 to 350 hp at 230/460/575 V, it covers a broad range of HVAC and packaged equipment applications, delivering efficiency gains and lifecycle cost reductions.
Product Information
Extended Description
3AUA0000226282 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
Integrated UL-listed packaged design reduces installation footprint and speeds field deployment by eliminating extra enclosure work and wiring complexity. This directly lowers project risk, shortens commissioning times, and supports safer startup in commercial installations. The result is faster project turnover and a clearer path to proven energy savings in fans, pumps, and other packaged equipment. The door-mounted input disconnect, padlockable in OFF position, enhances safety during maintenance and lockout/tagout procedures, helping facilities meet stringent safety standards while minimizing downtime due to accidental energization. Electronic motor overload protection guards motors against overload and thermal stress, extending motor life and reducing unplanned downtime in variable torque HVAC applications. Local control via a graphical display panel enables quick tuning and troubleshooting on site, while serial communications capability simplifies integration with BAS and SCADA systems for centralized monitoring and control. Compatibility with external control connections further eases migration from legacy drives, reducing capital expenditure and risk. The broad horsepower range from 1 to 350 hp across 230/460/575 V provides a single, scalable solution for diverse HVAC loads, lowering spare-parts inventory and total cost of ownership for building service organizations.
