ABB 3AUA0000226948 Motors & Drives - UL Listed 3 Hp 575 V
Part Number: 3AUA0000226948
Quick Summary
ABB 3AUA0000226948 is an HVAC drive designed to control motors in building automation and HVAC applications. Many systems suffer downtime due to complex wiring and separate motor starters; this unit integrates bypass, disconnect, and protection to streamline installation. It is UL-listed with a NEMA Type 1 enclosure and features a door-mounted control panel, interlocked switch, and padlockable OFF for safe maintenance. The drive supports scalable configurations from 1 to 75 hp at 230/460/575 V, enabling energy-efficient performance across commercial buildings. This combination of safety, reliability, and flexibility translates into reduced commissioning time and lower total cost of ownership in mechanical and electrical projects.
Product Information
Extended Description
3AUA0000226948 ABB: The ACH580 with ABB E-Clipse bypass has an integrated UL (NEMA) Type 1 enclosure with a bypass motor starter and is available from 1 to 75 hp at 230/460/575 V.
