ABB 3AUA0000227288 Packaged Drive - UL Type 1/12/3R
Part Number: 3AUA0000227288
Quick Summary
ABB 3AUA0000227288 Packaged Drive is an HVAC drive that controls motors in HVAC systems. It consolidates drive, disconnect, and protections in a single UL listed enclosure, reducing panel space and wiring. The unit scales from 1 to 350 hp at 230/460/575 V. With a door-mounted disconnect and electronic motor overload protection, it shortens commissioning time and enhances safety. Local control is via a graphical display panel, while external control connections and serial communications support integration with building management systems. Typical applications include HVAC fans and pumps in commercial and light industrial settings, delivering improved reliability and lower total cost of ownership.
Product Information
Extended Description
3AUA0000227288 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.
Packaged Drive design consolidates motor control, protection, and disconnect into a single enclosure, reducing panel footprint and wiring labor while speeding installation for HVAC projects. The 1 to 350 hp range at 230/460/575 V enables broad applicability across commercial rooftops, central plant rooms, and fan/pump trains, with a scalable platform that minimizes replacements during facility upgrades. A door-mounted input disconnect (padlockable OFF) enhances safety and helps meet lockout/tagout and electrical code requirements, streamlining maintenance and audits. Electronic motor overload protection reduces nuisance trips and motor wear, improving uptime and extending motor life in variable-speed HVAC regimes. The built-in local control panel with a graphical display accelerates commissioning, fault diagnosis, and parameter tuning, lowering commissioning costs. External control connections and serial communications enable seamless integration with BAS/SCADA systems, enabling centralized monitoring and coordinated demand response. The enclosure variants (UL Type 1/12/3R) provide installation flexibility in mechanical rooms, rooftops, and harsh environments, while fast-acting drive fuses add an extra layer of protection for sensitive equipment. Together these features translate to lower total cost of ownership, reduced downtime, and improved system reliability for HVAC, pumps, and industrial fans.

FAQs
The Packaged Drive is designed for UL Type 1/12/3R enclosures and accepts 230/460/575 V supply with horsepower ratings from 1 to 350 HP. It fits standard HVAC panel footprints and supports door-mounted disconnects, making retrofits straightforward while maintaining compliance with typical electrical codes. Verify enclosure type and door clearances during plan review to ensure seamless integration with existing panels.
Key specs include a broad HP range (1–350 HP) with input voltages of 230/460/575 V, protection via electronic motor overload, and a UL (NEMA) Type 1/12/3R enclosure. It provides a door-mounted disconnect, fast-acting drive fuses, local graphical control, and serial communications for system integration, suitable for HVAC fans, pumps, and related loads.
The ACH580 Packaged Drive in a UL listed enclosure is commonly deployed with CE compliance for global use, and enclosure variants imply IP-protected configurations associated with Type 1/12/3R housing. Always confirm local regulatory requirements and enclosure IP rating for the specific installation to ensure full compliance.
The drive provides external control connections and serial communications capability, enabling data exchange and control with BAS/SCADA systems. This supports coordinated start/stop sequencing, monitoring, and fault reporting, reducing manual interventions and enabling centralized energy management in HVAC loops.
Benefits include reduced panel space and wiring, faster commissioning via an integrated control panel, improved safety with a padlockable disconnect, and lower maintenance costs due to electronic overload protection. Together, these factors deliver shorter project timelines, lower downtime, and a lower total cost of ownership for HVAC systems.
