FAQs
Install the ACH580 with E-Clipse bypass by mounting in a UL-listed enclosure that supports Type 1, 12 or 3R. Wire the bypass starter in-line with the motor, connect the door-mounted control panel for local operation, and use the interlocked disconnect or circuit breaker with a padlockable OFF position. Ensure external control connections and serial communications are configured per the installation manual to maintain safe startup sequencing and fault protection.
The drive supports 230/460/575 V input with a horsepower range from 1 to 350 HP. For the specific Pld rating, 7.5 HP at 9 A is noted for the ACH580-BCR-09A0-6+B058 configuration. This combination provides scalable motor control for HVAC fans and pumps while maintaining protection through electronic overload and a bypass option to minimize process interruptions.
Yes. The ACH580 with E-Clipse bypass is designed for HVAC applications requiring reliable motor control, bypass capability, and integrated control. Its enclosure options and built-in protections make it well-suited for rooftop units, air handling systems, and other packaged HVAC equipment where space, safety, and ease of maintenance are critical.
This drive is UL-listed and designed for NEMA enclosure types 1, 12, or 3R. The built-in bypass, door-mounted control panel, and interlockable disconnect contribute to compliance with safety standards and simplify installation in typical indoor HVAC environments. Always verify local regulatory requirements for CE marking and IP ratings if deploying in international locations.
By integrating E-Clipse bypass and a bypass motor starter, the unit reduces startup transients and wear on drive components, lowering maintenance costs and downtime. Electronic overload protection and a graphical local control panel simplify diagnostics and repairs, while serial communications enable predictive maintenance and energy-management integration, delivering measurable savings over the life of HVAC equipment.
