Part Number: 3AUA0000226291
Quick Summary
ABB ACH580 Packaged Drive optimizes HVAC fan and pump control in industrial and commercial systems. Installing separate drives, disconnects, and panels often wastes space, increases wiring complexity, and extends downtime. This model is UL-listed for U.S. safety with NEMA Type 1, 12, or 3R enclosures, supporting safe, reliable installations in harsh environments. By combining a drive, input disconnect, a door-mounted graphical control panel, and serial communications in a single cabinet, it accelerates commissioning, simplifies maintenance, and enables seamless remote monitoring for building management systems.
Product Information
Extended Description
3AUA0000226291 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 input disconnect with optional fast-acting fuses or circuit breaker reduces wiring complexity and cabinet space while enhancing safety through a padlockable OFF position. This streamlines installation and lowers commissioning time. It is especially beneficial for HVAC fans and pumps in air handlers and rooftop units, where space is at a premium and serviceability matters. Door-mounted graphical control panel provides local, intuitive operation and quick troubleshooting, improving maintenance productivity and reducing site visits. The built-in display supports on-site parameter setup, improving first-time right commissioning and reducing commissioning errors for HVAC projects. The 230/460/575 V voltage options and 1 to 350 hp range offer scalable deployment for diverse equipment, minimizing spare parts and simplifying purchasing for projects. Electronic motor overload protection guards motor health and drive stability, lowering unplanned downtime in critical HVAC assets. Serial communications capability and external control connections enable seamless integration with BAS/SCADA systems, enhancing remote monitoring, diagnostics, and control.
