ABB ACH580 Packaged Drive 3AUA0000227286 - UL Type 1
Part Number: 3AUA0000227286
Quick Summary
The ABB ACH580 Packaged Drive enables precise HVAC motor control in a compact, integrated package. Engineers often face wiring complexity, space constraints, and downtime when installing separate drives, disconnects, and protection devices; this packaged solution consolidates drive, disconnect, and protection into a single enclosure. UL-listed with NEMA Type 1, 12, or 3R enclosure options, it supports a broad range of installations and climates. By combining local control, remote communications, and motor overload protection, the ACH580 Packaged Drive reduces commissioning time and maintenance effort. This makes it a cost-effective choice for HVAC contractors and OEMs seeking scalable performance from 15 Hp to 350 Hp in 230/460/575 V systems.
Product Information
Extended Description
3AUA0000227286 ABB: The ACH580 Packaged Drive includes an ACH580 drive in a UL (NEMA) Type 1, 12 or 3R enclosure with input disconnect switch or circuit breaker, both including fast acting drive fuses. 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 drive and input disconnect in a single enclosure reduces panel footprint, simplifies wiring, and speeds installation for HVAC cabinets and building automation suites. The compact packaging translates to space savings in mechanical rooms and control closets while maintaining accessibility for service. The wide horsepower and voltage range (1–350 hp, 230/460/575 V) enables a single solution across multiple projects, reducing part numbers and stock complexity, and supporting upgrades without replacing the enclosure. Electronic motor overload protection minimizes motor faults and unplanned downtime, improving reliability and maintenance planning. A door-mounted control panel with a graphical display accelerates commissioning and on-site parameter tuning while keeping the controller within easy reach for technicians. Serial communications capability enables remote monitoring, diagnostics, and integration with building management systems, improving asset visibility and energy management across sites.

FAQs
The ACH580 Packaged Drive is designed for UL (NEMA) Type 1 enclosures with optional variants for Type 12 and Type 3R. It includes a door-mounted input disconnect that is padlockable in the OFF position, simplifying safety during service. These enclosure options enable installation in mechanical rooms, equipment cabinets, or protected outdoor locations, aligning with site requirements and local codes.
Installers mount the packaged drive inside the enclosure, connect to 230/460/575 V power, and wire external control connections as required. The unit provides a graphical, door-mounted control panel for local operation and status indication, along with fast-acting fuses and a built-in disconnect. This layout reduces wiring complexity and shortens commissioning times in HVAC cabinets and equipment rooms.
The package includes electronic motor overload protection, fast-acting drive fuses, and a padlockable input disconnect for safe maintenance. It also offers external control connections and serial communications, enabling remote monitoring and integration with building management systems. These features help safeguard motors, extend equipment life, and support predictive maintenance programs.
Yes. The drive supports a broad range of HVAC applications from 15 Hp to 350 Hp at 230/460/575 V, with enclosure options that accommodate diverse installation environments. Its integrated protection, local control panel, and remote communications make it well-suited for building automation, air handling units, fans, and pumps, delivering reliable motor control and simplified integration.
Consolidating drive, disconnect, and protection into a single enclosure reduces panel count, wiring complexity, and on-site labor, lowering installation time and capital expenditure. Electronic overload protection minimizes motor faults, lowering downtime. Remote communications enable continuous monitoring and energy-management optimization, contributing to faster ROI on HVAC modernization projects.
